Newcastle United 4-1 Chelsea (25/11/23) | Reaction: pg. 27 | Goal-posts: OP

Irritating. They're nothing special but we're on the bones of our arse, have had some poor moments from a few players and missed a fucking open goal. Even then their goal wasn't a free kick from what I saw. It has all the feeling of a game that we'll go on to lose in the most annoying manner possible. Absolutely hate these cunts.

 

Howe needs to get in Joelinton's ear because that was a really poor first half from him, not just the insane miss either.

It's becoming a parody now. 

I have defended him all the time but it is getting too much now. I get it if you are not the best ball playing keeper, but he cant kick it at all anymore.

Joelinton really hasn’t been at the races this season, and that wasn’t great either first half.  I’m completely unconvinced by him in midfield - looks much better LW with Willock behind.  Wouldn’t be surprised if we cash in this summer. 

 

 

Probably should.

I gotta admit the Joelinton as striker thing didn't age very well for me, but I still stand by saying that Joelinton is not the same midfielder that he was last season yet.. Has really just had a couple of great games this season. Also, as someone pointed out, his best games for us has been as LW swapping with Willock.

That was an entertaining half of football. We should be ahead, but these are there for the taking second half.


I agree. But they have depth to bring on. We will gas and have to turn to one of our FM regens or Ritchie as options.

Not been able to watch this uninterrupted but annoyingly looks there for the taking, but we're just not playing that well. Not bad, just not that effective. 

 

We miss Burn imo, just having that balance does make a difference.

His replacement is better. Far better.

Love the bloke to bits and hope he stays for years to come in some capacity. But him constantly missing sitters, making brain dead fouls and always wanting 2-3 touches on the ball is starting to get annoying. 
 

I think like Longstaff. It does feel like we miss him when he’s not playing. He does put a monumental shift in every game, box to box/everywhere on the pitch.

Should be in the lead, played some lovely stuff at times but then one moment of stupidity from Lascelles and a soft free kick has undone it. Fingers crossed we can go again and get the three points, because there’s nothing on the bench to give us a boost!
