BonesJones Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 9 hours ago, Stal said: I watched the Sean press conference last night. I took a shot every time he said "like I said" or similar. I was mortal by the end of it. But on a serious note, it was a good watch. You can see the way Eddie handles the media is rubbing off on him. You should try that game with Willock, when he says "I feel like". You'd be worse than mortal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 What was the Ray Parlour one? Said something 10-15 times in a short interview Think it was ‘obviously’. Gerrard and Rooney with erm or yanno. You’d die of alcohol poisoning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need the Sean from Saturday in the second half as he looks off the pace, although no worse than Joe or Bruno when they attack. Other than that we arent playing bad, just not following their breaks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 He needs to make his passes quicker, this isn't just a tonight issue but in general sometimes he holds on to it a bit too long Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holloway Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 If he isn't aware that he needs to sharpen up in these moments,somebody needs to get him telt. Good players overcome weaknesses like this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I'm one of his biggest advocates but he was absolutely chod tonight, didn't look at the races whatsoever, seemed to have none of his usual energy. Then again, he normally plays 90+ mins three times a week so you'd expect him to look tired once in a while. He'll bounce back, he's vital to the midfield unit at the moment & with Tonali's impending break he'll get loads of minutes. I do think having Willock in there with him will improve things further as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Looked knackered from the start tonight, his decision making was very poor too but hopefully he'll be able to take something from this game and improve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Yeah, I think it was just a case of him being a bit burnt out. He hasn’t been getting caught on the ball much if at all recently but he did tonight, just put it down to them being a good side who were on us in the first half and Sean being a bit gassed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmesy Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 (edited) Ultimately we were playing against one of the top 10 club sides in the world and we saw why he will likely be replaced by us in the next year so. Like everyone who loves the club, I love him to bits but his deficiencies stood out a mile tonight. He’s comfortably Premier League quality but he’ll never be Champions League quality.

No they’re not. Group stage exit last season. R16, QF, R16 before that. A good team but not troubled the elite in years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have aspirations of winning the PL and the CL. Currently teams in the running for those trophies are likely to be: Man City Arsenal Liverpool Real Madrid Does Sean Longstaff get anywhere near the midfield of any of those teams? That’s all people are saying. No one is writing him off as being shit, but for where we want to get to, he isn’t good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dortmund will get into most people’s top 10 They are 16th in co-efficient over the past 5 years. They lost to Chelsea last year in R16. They finished 3rd in the group stage the year prior and lost to Stevie G's Rangers in the Europa League. That's very poor. They are the level of Sevilla, Leipzig, Benfica, AC Milan. Good proper CL side who should aim to make it out of the group and, with a bit of luck of the draw, make it to the QFs at best. We were done by a slick European outfit, no doubt. But on our best day, we beat them. We weren't at our best, and they were close to theirs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dortmund press and the weather probably contributed. Hope he bounces back against Wolves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s all people are saying. No one is writing him off as being shit, but for where we want to get to, he isn’t good enough. You could argue we don't have that many players who would play for those teams. Bruno, Trippier, Isak, Botman? It's gonna take years to get the full squad we want to be able to challenge on all levels. Longstaff has a few seasons left in him yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
