wormy Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I'll take 0-0 after that. I'm heartened by the fact we've kept at it but seem a bit lost in the final third, Brighton are snuffing things with relative ease and seems it's going to take a Scharesque goal to break through again. On the flip side there's been a lot of sloppy possession on our part and while Pope hasn't filled me with confidence it's not helped that he's been caught on the hop a couple of times from unneeded counters as a result of that bad passing. Ref doesn't want to give us a fucking thing so we don't need to be causing ourselves problems too. Fingers crossed a bit more composure in the second half.

Deuce Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 This game should absolutely suit Willock with all the counter attacking we’re doing. Been anonymous though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bring Longstaff on for Willock, not that Willock has done much wrong like, just doesn't feel suited to this game Bruno's worst game but we need him on the pitch. Willock has made good runs and been in good positions but nee fucker ever sees him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Just now, Happinesstan said: Escaped the first half, need more in the second. Suspect the game plan is to let them tire themselves out before applying the pressure. We've been a bit lucky to get away with it. Would gladly take a point riht now. Doubt that was the game plan, if so our midfielders would be looking to pass quick instead of carrying it too long and getting caught, that tires us. Expecting tactical alterations at half time. Maxi has been shit, not frustrating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Puppets Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Odd performance. Don’t feel particularly worried or pressured by Brighton, and we’ve exerted ourselves well at times, but been pretty sloppy overall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 We've wasted loads of promising positions. Miggy needs to just hit one when it opens up for him. Looking a little sluggish in midfield and we're missing Targett, all a bit lopsided. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Just now, Flip said: Bruno is 100% having his worst game of his Newcastle career like. Or when has he ever been this bad? Ok if you don't include friendlies, it is then I still have faith in him, but he's only had the ball a handful of times. I can't even imagine how many misplaced passes Maxi's had.

Yorkie Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Pretty much everyone has looked half a second less sharp than they ought to be, including the defenders (especially Trippier who, as sad as it makes me, is really starting to make me wonder). I don't really know what the gameplan is here, either. Lobbing it up to Wilson certainly isn't working. Brighton are a difficult opponent and play with a lot of intensity, and it's clearly difficult conditions so you can't read too much into it I don't think. We've had some bright moments and there's something here for us if we improve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaqen Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Maxi actually looks worse trying to pass more. There's been a couple of occasions where he's tried a cut back to the edge of the box where he probably could have just drove at them like he usually would.

Klaus Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Fwiw we haven't played too badly imo, we have got into plenty of decent positions , just shit end product. We haven't exactly been played off the park. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Stinking first half, ASM and Bruno have been especially bad. At least we've been decent enough defensively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Easy to forget this is the second game of the season, we're not going to be fully up-to-speed yet. We definitely look a bit energy-less in the middle. Very odd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emotic Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Maxi was definitely confused by the kits, like. At least twice he confidently placed perfect passes to the feet of a Brighton defender, as if he meant it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
