Hanshithispantz Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 What exactly are people posting "pathetic performance" expecting? It's shite to see how bad we are but it's fairly apparent why teams playing less games are able to outperform us on their own patch consistently.

McCormick Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 (edited) As inept a performance as you’ll see from any team this season. Woeful, clueless and pathetic. Love Howe but, tiredness or not, this isn’t good enough. Edited December 23, 2023 by McCormick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theregulars Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Good teams find a way to get results. We are not finding that way too often to claim to be a good team right now. Questions to answer for manager, squad and club in January. Petrified of the mackems match now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Very disappointing again. Intensity is way way off. Lots of players look knackered. Dunno what the Miley thing was. I thought he was tidy enough and looked okay. Need more fit bodies not called Matt Ritchie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 We've exhausted the squad. They're spent, mentally and physically. And there's unfortunately no Plan B for how we play, so we're just kind of out there right now. Those deficiencies can be papered over at home, when the crowd and the atmosphere can make up for it. But it's all laid bare on the road and I think that's why our away form is what it is. Need reinforcements in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KetsbaiaIsBald Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Need this season to end. Worst Howe performance that for me. Luton were poor but could have won 4-0. We had 2 shots on target. Didn't really look like we had a plan. Gordon and Miggy were played injured. Gordon could't sprint or even jump. Isak did his thing and disappeared. Bruno good on ball but through balls poor/desperate. Roll on Sunderland... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Shit again from our forward line, particularly Wilson who when he's out of form quickly becomes insufferable. We basically just need to stop the rot with our away form and go from there. Hard to believe, but if we win our home matches and just one of our away matches over the next month or so and we'll be in a better position than at the same point last season. Dubravka: 6 Trippier: 5 Schär: 5 Botman: 7 Bruno: 6.5 Longstaff: 5.5 Miley: 6 Isak: 5.5 Almiron: 4 Wilson: 3 Gordon: 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog dirt. We move on, however. Shooting is a technical quality too. I didn’t think Bruno was any less shite than his teammates today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyeyzzon Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 I really just want us not to play like we’ve written off this season after the European and cup exits. That’s all I ask. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Our lack of creativity and lack of being able to break a team down who sit back is alarming. At no point did I think we were going to score or even look like it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotus Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Players looked a little used to losing. Very fatigued mentally as well as physically. They'll be very disappointed. We need to be supporters not just fans. It's easy to get emotional and reactive after a bad few weeks. Let's see how we are come the end of January.

Conjo Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Probably the absolute worst time to face Luton who is playing for their captain, at home with fresh legs against a tired Newcastle who's poor away from home and licking its wounds after rapidly getting eliminated from the league cup and europe. Luton were great. Rarely seen a team battle as hard as they did and thoroghly deserved all the points today. I hope we'd come back against Forest in three days but without players coming back fresh from injury we are limited in what we can do. Put the players on ice until then and pray for an early goal.

LionOfGosforth Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 It wasn't good today, and the away form is poor but it doesn't take much critical thinking to see why it's like this. I've seen "woeful, clueless and pathetic" and "disgusting, lazy and a disgrace" hoyed around in here.
