Newcastle United 1-1 Bournemouth (17/08/2022)


Recommended Posts

Beneath the 3/4 quality players we have, the rest are still bang average.

We can't play without ASM and Wilson. And we're missing Shelvey. Bruno needs to play higher.

 

The only fucker with an eye for a pass are Tripps and Bruno.

This inverted (shit) wingers formation aint great either - one of those days.

Not sure about the booing off at the end like, though that wasn’t exactly great stuff.  No wins in six though. 

 

Flat atmosphere, flat performance.

 

Teams are coming to SJP and playing against us as if we’re a top side - which we aren’t, of course.

 

If there’s a budget in January, it should be chucked at a winger.  We desperately need to replace Almiron, Fraser etc.

Now that was poor. Can't believe how flat and lethargic we were, looked like we just expected to just turn up and beat them by default. No intensity whatsoever. 

 

Willock's end product is absolutely horrendous, every bit as poor as Almiron, Murphy etc.

Just now, KaKa said:

Almiron and Willock starting games is killing us right now IMO.

 

As frustrating as Longstaff and Murphy can be, I have infinitely more faith in either of those two doing something that leads to a goal than Almiron or Willock ever will.

 

Really growing to despise the pair of them.

 

Willock clearly cant play the role that Howe wants him to play. And its getting so frustrating to watch, even when we win games he still doesnt play well in the role, his ball carrying is bad and his defending is laughable. He is not the type of player that will be able to do the job needed. But then again longstaff is league 1 at best and Shelvey is injured so we are sorta fucked, but that is a concern that has been there for quite a while.

 

Out on the wide we have nothing when ASM isnt there, Anderson might be our saving grace if he hits the ground running and continues what he showed when he was subbed on. But jesus, all that possession and shots with 1 goal to show for it is bad, very bad.

Fucking woeful that mind. No urgency whatsoever. I said at the time it was a massive mistake not getting a quality central midfielder and right winger and we can see exactly why. Brings Wood on and all they do is continue to make ten yard passes around the box. Just not good enough so far.

Frustrating but no reason to panic. Well played Bournemouth.

 

Definitely missed ASM/someone to have defenders back-pedal and cause ill-discipline in their defence. Not winning owt this season, so as long as they learn from it.
