Manchester City 2-0 Newcastle United - 26/12/2020 - post match p10 onwards

[Optimistic Nut]

They played like they’ve got a lot of fixtures in a short space of time and didn’t even have to try to get the win. If they hadn’t got the early goal they’d have just upped their game enough to make sure they won.

[Cronky]

Matty looked confident and at ease on the ball. I'd like to see how he fares now against one of the weaker sides.

 

He covers the ground okay, but lacks pace and struggles to get into the right position to tackle. But he moves the ball along accurately and swiftly, which none of our other midfielders can do.

 

I'd like to give Hayden and the two Longstaffs a try in a 3-5-2.

Surprise you didn't try to paint this as a Top 3 moment in NUFC history.

So the highlight is a slow, out of position midfielder who runs around a lot?  This is like picking out the sweet corn in a massive turd

That would be the most uninspiring midfield in our history , no way Sean gets a place for me .

It's like imagining a world where Shelvey was allowed to play against teams reduced to 7 men for 90 mins. He'd be absolutely lethal.
