Manchester City 5-0 Newcastle United (08/05/2022)

[SUPERTOON]

I know some think Joelinton could be moved to a more advanced position, but he should stay in the middle for me. We and him are so much better with him in there.

Well I think he's useless.

 

He's useless on the right wing, but he's not a right winger and should never play there. I'd like to see him as a 10 for a bit and think we'd see far more from him there.

[Pixelphish]

They're just better. Couple of shit moments from NUFC that could've changed the game but you always feel they'd have won eventually anyway.

Obviously ASM isn't good defensively but I don't think there's a winger in the world that tracks that run by Cancelo on the first goal. Even if someone did track it, stopping it would be almost impossible as you would need to cut the pass before it hits Cancelo's head.

 

Agree, once the (perfectly flighted) cross is into the box, there's problems. ASM isn't blameless but there's more nuance to it.

[The Prophet]

Almiron, like so many of our players, clearly has his limitations. He's been fine today though.

None of them are good enough for us apart from Bruno and Trippier. And probably Wilson.

Target, Burn, Schar, trippier, Joelinton, Bruno,Willock, Shelvey, Maxi,Wilson, Fraser. Are all good enough to play a part maybe not all starting.

2nd half possession 99% - 1%.

Eh?  I think it's the first time I've had a go at him actually.  Are you mixing me up with someone else?

Maybe. Maybe it was @Beth

 

is anyone else useless?

[Schecter]

Jesus nearly fainted there, the sky commentary team actually started talking about us for a second before going back to using their microscope to inspect Man City's ring piece. 

[Mattoon]

It's like a library in there bar our supporters you can hear clear as day, such a plastic club these days.

[Gawalls]

From what I can see from this second half, we’re not playing as bad as the first half, that’s probably because the suns on the tv and I can’t see fuck all.

 

 Saying that - I can still see ASM is shite ?

[54]

Slightly proud of that 1% stat

[Chrisjraby]

Longstaff absolutely invisible in this game, quite impressively so

[Sima]

Refuse to believe that passing stat.

[Yorkie]

Neville going on about that 5-4-1 game again.

 

Tyler reminding him we actually beat them under Rafa.

Incredible that he got a new contract

[The Butcher]

Would be tempted to put Trippier on at RW now. 

[Smal]

Chris Wood is shit.

We’ve had 1% possession so you can’t really single out any individual this second half.

 

 Saying that ASM’s shite?

[Numbers]

Please stop calling him Joe Ellington, sounds like a fucking corronation street character.

He must have a picture of MBS in a dress to get that 4 year deal.
