Newcastle United 1-0 Manchester City (27/09/23)

[McCormick]

Tonali’s touch isn’t good. 

[Numbers]

Bobb looks like he can do a job.

[David Edgar]

Tonali looks shite out there.

[La Parka]

Bobbs a knob 

[Miggys First Goal]

We seemed to wake up towards the end there. 

[La Parka]

Players keep thinking toenail is Bruno

Must be a great experience for this co-commentator, seeing Pep's Man City for the first time.

He's a joke, only person watching them that isn't bored to death.

[David Edgar]

Can't wait to have a keeper like the Man City chap who can pass the ball.

[SUPERTOON]

Kept Man City out with a CB partnership of Dummett and Lascelles and should have scored with Murphy. Tonali has struggled mind.

[ponsaelius]

I'd rather watch Tony Pulis' Stoke side than Guardiola's Man City.

[TRon]

Man City are nowhere near as good as we are making them look. We've got three or four players who look scared shitless of the ball and it's affecting the others who started off well.

 

Howe needs to put a rocket up their arse and tell them to grow a pair and get at them.

[KaKa]

Tonali is not looking great in that 6 role against a team that presses really well.

 

Touch has been very poor so far.

Pope has an excellent pass on him, straight into touch.

Tonali had 3 Man City players on him there. Yes his touch was poor but it was an absolutely awful decision to pass to him in the first place. 

Yes but its still the third or fourth time he clumsy the ball away. Im not complaining, the game doesnt matter to me, but hes been turbo shit.

I'm genuinely not sure he's done a single thing right. 

[SiLvOR]

Well, we certainly looked brighter near the end.

[La Parka]

Man city are boring Barcelona cunts

[McDog]

That was a quick 45 it seemed to me. See if Eddie can cook something up.

Wonder if he brings on reinforcements if it's still tied after 60?

[Numbers]

Think we had the best chance despite the commentators wanking themselves sore about Man City.

[duo]

Only +ve is big Joe looks more like himself.

I haven’t written him off, just said I don’t see what some members see in him. The players Man City have out tonight are not best team in the world. Miley’s first touch looks poor and he’s losing his marker frequently. Perfectly reasonable to judge the performance.

Fair enough.  I've seen enough to think he has a lot of potential.  Judging his performance tonight is fine, but to say you don't see what people see in him based on one performance is harsh in the extreme - unless you are basing that on his cameo against Chelsea and his pre season too?

[Joelinton7]

Tonali is turboshit

[Smal]

Tonali is good at winning duels and carrying the ball. It’s pretty clear that he can’t play as a 6 though because he cannot do the first phase build up at all.

[Shearergol]

Some right negative posters on here tonight. Chill out chaps.
