Blind to obvious fouls, fussy over non-incidents, and bizarrely involved in as much time wasting as any opposing team causing the game to lose momentum. Ref was total garbage but it just wasn’t going to be our night either way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hear Vegan shoes have tremendous traction on wet cobblestone. Would hate for that to be inaccurate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Dortmund had the first half but we were far the better team in the second half. No disgrace and certainly not "battered" or "crap" as some contributors said tonight on here. I can't stand our "new wave" supporters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Frustrating game overall, they where decent on the break, and defended resolutely, but we created a fair few chances, and for the first time in a while couldn't convert them. Would have said a draw would have been a fair result, but don't think there was anything overly dramatic about the lose, was just one of them games, we need to refocus and move onto Wolves. If you'd offered me 4 points after 3 games before the start i'd have taken it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got tonali and the option of Targett with his out swinger. We nearly scored from Targetts delivery yet tripps still persists with poor deliveries. Absolutely fucking sick of it. We went ages not having a threat from set pieces and wasting corners because they fucking went short all the time. We have had Tonali in the squad who hasn’t had a look in. Look at that Targett freekick towards the end, something different from someone else, and we were unlucky not to score. That throw in was one of the stupidest things I’ve fucking seen, but he’ll do the same on corners when chasing a goal towards the end of games.

Dyeyzzon Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 It’s a frustrating kind of defeat rather than a depressing one. If it were the crossbar challenge we’d win today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiseman Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Was always going to be a tough group to get out of, but it's the fact we were so close so many times that makes it feel like such a harsh loss, plus a couple more injuries.

Memphis Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Frustrating one. Much improved second half without ever looking consistently threatening. Their defensive setup was smart and they executed it well. Learn from it and get better quickly. Hope the injuries aren't too bad. We are suddenly quite thin in some key spots.

Dont want to be too harsh because ultimately it just didn’t go our way at times, but I kind of expect a bit more from Bruno in a game like that. He had all the time in the world in the second half and didn’t create anything. That’s some take. He was by far our best player tonight (with AG) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 They maintained a good shape which meant we weren’t really able to test the keeper in awful conditions. I’m not gonna complain too much. We’ve still got a lot of players who need far too many touches and they took full advantage of that first half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyc35i Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 We didn’t deserve to lose that at all, but that’s what happens when you play quality opponents. Callum puts in that chance in the six yard box and we could be talking about another win tonight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortoon Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Ref was absolutely infuriating as well, 2 meters away from Callum Wilson getting his shorts pulled off and he does the "get up" wave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Today just wasn't meant to be, terrible injuries, mistakes all over and the ball just wouldn't go in, every time has "one of those days" and i hope the lads can pick themselves up and use this as a chance to get improve.
