gdm Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Definately need Rondon on to out muscle them a bit yet the ref will probably blow up for everything Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortoon Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Think Perez has done well on quite a few occasions, the goalie has made a couple of great saves. Shelveys passing seems like our only threat. Kenedy has been disappointing as well even before the suspension-incident. He doesn't need to be Ben Arfa every time he gets the ball. Lascelles MOTM so far. The ref has been terrible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Low quality match. Can't think of anyone in b&w who's been particularly good. Perez has been okay I guess. Manquillo is gash and Kenedy is going to be banned for being an idiot. didnt u hear he was just kicking the air and there happened to be a marra right there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Got nothing up front. Ball isn't sticking to Joselu. Manquillo been awful. Regarding the Kenedy thing what did the ref award a free kick to Cardiff for straight after it? Was it the kick itself or out else? Can't remember as I struggle to remember anything watching this dross. Hope we sort it out asap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 We're *always* terrible against clubs that celebrate every tackle and goal kick like they scored in the World Cup final btw. That's because our own football isn't good enough to pass it round either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Don't really see what Clark has done wrong, we've defended well other then Manquillo. Out attack has bee wank mind. It's not what he's done. Its the fact he's in place of a ball playing defender when he's not that when we bought two over the summer who are better than him at that.

Stifler Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 We have been poor, however Cardiff haven’t created much and we have created just as much and probably better opportunities than them. We haven’t clicked in the game, and the referee has pulled us back a few yards by giving them everything. The good thing for us though is that I believe we have the capability to get better in this game, whereas I think this is all Cardiff have to offer. We certainly have the quality to beat them, our 2 chances have already shown this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Poor game but one thing this shows is why it's obvious that there were no English officials at the World Cup. He's shocking and he's supposedly one of the better ones. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Such a lack of pace in our team Weird that's your takeaway mind, I'd say the ability or lack of to do simple things like control a football under pressure is a much bigger issue than any lack of pace. We haven't got an out ball. We did well last season with Gayle on the last defender using his pace to create space Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 At least we are, Manquillo aside, not looking too troubled in defence. Manquillo and Kenedy should both be sent off, idiots. Not making one successful pass in the first half is criminal and Kenedy needs to be told to sort it out. Injury to Manquillo may be a blessing if it forces us to change things a bit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Piss poor that. Kenedy is on smack, Manquillo not a footballer in any sense and ref is shite. Need to be at 0-0 and get Rondon on to stand any chance. Feels horribly similar to the Huddersfield 1-0 loss last year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Shelvey has been decent at times tbf. He is pinging the odd nice long ball, but our football engine in general is non-existent. We are basically being reduced to hitting long balls now and then as our primary tactic because of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 We're *always* terrible against clubs that celebrate every tackle and goal kick like they scored in the World Cup final btw. That's because our own football isn't good enough to pass it round either. Think it’s more to do with us essentially being best at counter attacking which is almost impossible against long ball shithouses. Still think we might pinch this.

thenige Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Loads of players out there who just don’t fancy a fight. Kenedy and Manquillo have been utterly horrendous. Kenedy trying to do everything on his own and has done nowt. Ritchie just a nothing player when he’s got a booking as his aggression is gone. They need a right old bollocking. Pretty obvious that all team really need to do is sit on Jonjo and we can’t do nowt. Especially now instead of Lejeune playing out from the back you have us just going short back and forth or long to nowhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Shelvey has been decent at times tbf. He is the only player who looks like he could produce something, but even he has been average at best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Seems that the ref awarded a free kick for the Kenedy kick. If that's the case doesn't that mean he can't be banned? Clutching at straws here, I know. But having him out will be pure . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiedean Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Some God damn awful players in B&W on that pitch and I'm a big believer of if a guy is fit enough to be on the bench he's fit enough to start not starting any of the new guys is nonsense.

Stottie Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Ah well. A half to forget there. The England team of old seemed to raise or lower their game to match the opposition, and NUFC today remind me of that. Joselu was anonymous, so get one of the other two on, maybe Muto if they're going to stand off and let Shelvey pass it through them. It looks a waste, but Muto plays left side for the Japanese national team if Rafa wants to pull Kenedy off, because he's having a mare too. Diame came strong second half last week, and we could do with that again. We've had no control so far. A bit of control and the game is there to be won. Keep it at hoof and head tennis and they'll probably sneak one to win it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Warnock will have someone standing on Shelveys toes all 2nd half. Everything we've done has gone through him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
