mighty__mag Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Was going so well. Unfortunately we lacked what's needed to finish sides off, they had a much, much better game plan second half, our subs seemed poor, the lads that started seemed hungrier, Gordon was running things on the left, when Isak came on nothing happened. I understand the subs probably needed making, but the same energy wasn't there at all from the players that came on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 (edited) Lack of nous and experience cost us I think Just wasn't to be.

Holloway Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Absolutely gutted after that first half performance. Game turned on the save I thought, which was phenominal. Take your fucking chances at this level Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Surprised Schar is getting the blame like, he's been praised for those runs all season. The issue was Bruno and Isak letting their midfielder walk through them, absolutely has to be a tactical foul there, guarantee Howe will bollock them for that.

The opposition don’t usually have four forwards on, and need to win to stay in Europe. It was amateur stuff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have been competitive in the Europa league. what do you mean? You rather sit back and go to Europe than actually go for it? I believe we could’ve been cooler as Milan were going to throw more men forward, but we can’t fault Schär for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Good effort from the team. Naive in many ways, but it was a free hit. Just have to use it as a learning experience and move on. They will rightly reflect on how they could have done better. Quite surprised at how open they left themselves. Not sure if there was a directive to go for Champions League or nothing, because it looked that way. A lot of kamikaze defending, which has been a feature of Newcastle defending for a while. Giroud had some fantastic centre forward play. Cracking for his age. The squad needs to strengthen. Hopefully in January. Would love a centre forward who can take on a defender and win.

Stottie Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Decent effort but not to be. Would have been Europa but for the PSG pen. We let Milan back into it with poor defending for their first goal. It came out of the blue and was hardly deserved. Once it was 1-1, pushing for a winner would always leave us exposed, and so it proved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Just now, TRon said: Schar was just being Schar, I think at 1-0 up maybe we didn't need to play such an open game considering it was Milan who needed to chase the game. Nothing wrong with his run but he has to do what he usually does there and shoot! If it flies over then he can get back into position. That one two with Isak and continuing his run into the box is bloody ridiculous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 I dearly hope there's no undue slack leveled at anyone on the playing or coaching staff because although they've been naive at times, it was a brutal group and we've been competitive throughout. Not to mention we go through if it wasn't for that objectively scandalous decision in Paris. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 We didn't deserve that. Nowt fucking drops for us ever, was just like the Dortmund home game in that respect, so many near misses or chances where the ball almost fell for us. I need to see the winning goal again but my reaction in real time was that Bruno absolutely swerved the opportunity to make a foul, take the yellow and keep us alive. He played so well all night but that moment may have been the one that cost us. Absolutely gut wrenching stuff tonight. Feel like it'll probably be flat as a fart on Saturday after that, everyone's taken an emotional hammering. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 I'm really disappointed with that second half, i was hoping we would keep focused but it really did show how much experience matters at this level, they were so calm and composed and towards the end they could've scored a few more goals, we just ran out of steam.
