Odear Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 The signs were there last week so can’t see how anyone is surprised. It does indeed leave a bad taste but it also highlights that the teams we picked up points against were soft as shite. Watford are very average but have strong players. We’re being bullied all over the pitch. It’s embarrassing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re being bullied all over the pitch. It’s embarrassing. Yeah, Shame we will likely miss out on a top 10 finish, but the players will miss out on a nice bonus by doing so. It also highlights which players Rafa can rely on and where he needs to strengthen. At the end of the day we have achieved our target and enjoyed the season on a whole. The club is still going to progress under Rafa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 I hope Rafa reads the riot act at half time. It's simply not good enough to have given up, once safety has been assured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiedean Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Looks like we have just gave up on the season after working so hard to be safe. So disappointing we could have went for 8th position Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Yeah its not a pen, he didn't actually foul Gray. Gray jumped in at the same time and landed on him. Weird decision. Still an abysmally shite tackle tho This, it wasn't a pen but it was a fucking awful attempt at a slide tackle from Dummett. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Yeah its not a pen, he didn't actually foul Gray. Gray jumped in at the same time and landed on him. Weird decision. Still an abysmally shite tackle tho I'm still confused as to what he was doing. It was like he was in 2 minds of whether to just slide down the side of the ball to shield the cross or to go for the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Merse Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Just gave the ref a decision - wasn't a pen but it was unnecessary to slide in as the ball was going out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikri Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 That's the worst I've seen us play since we were relegated. Amateurish defending and utterly toothless up front, just embarrassing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Incredibly shite half. Saved two of our worst performances for both games against Watford Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Hard to feel anything towards the performance when they’ve already achieved what we wanted and done so well over the season. They are afterall just sacrificing their own positional bonuses. Still a shite performance but I’m struggling to be angry about it, which is a weird feeling that I’ve not had in years because we’re usually scraping around for results at this time of year.

Guest reefatoon Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 We started the season well then went to absolute shit, then pulled it around again, to then end the season absolute shit. The up and down world of Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odear Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 It highlights how much of an overhaul we need. In every department. Whoever wrote that piece about signing 3 players, (Golovin, Kenedy and King) would transform the team, well not saying it wouldn’t help but we have holes all over the squad. Manquillo needs to be moved on. Murphy seems to be a dud. Gayle makes no impact on games. Ayoze runs around like a headless chicken and for the most part never picks the right pass. Diame looks knackered. Shelvey only played well when there was a sniff of getting in the England squad, reverted to form now. Kenedy.. no way he’s worth more than 20m but we are so much worse without him. Dubravka... might not be all that after all. So much to do this summer...

Raconteur Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 We've got nothing in attack at all. Shelvey gets the ball forward, and time and again it's lost by Perez or Murphy or Kenedy. Gayle has hardly had a touch and we just look useless when we're forced to fashion opportunities instead of breaking at pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Shelvey only played well when there was a sniff of getting in the England squad, reverted to form now. No way - he's running his ass off. Takes a corner, runs back to get it on the edge of our box, then runs forward again supporting the attack he just initiated. He and Mo (and Dubravka) are the only ones putting in a shift thus far Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
