Newcastle United (4) 2-0 (0) Arsenal - 05/02/2025


Recommended Posts

Absolute masterclass in controlling games without having possession them two legs. Fucking quality from every single person on that pitch. 

 

Botman was my man of the match, and absolute colossus all game, Burn and Schar just behind. 

 

Wouldn't have wanted that result against any other team, fuck Arsenal, bunch of dirty, petulant cunts.

I agree with Tino overtaking Trippier, but I'm really happy for Trippier to have this moment on a big stage. He deserves it.

 

On form, you've got to say after this match Trips is ahead of Tino for the moment

Brilliant stuff. Do we stick with that system going forward? Thought we had a really good balance throughout and far more control than usual.

All the talk was about Arsenal making a comeback, Arsenal getting an early goal to unsettle us, the crowd being too nervous, their players saying they were going to score 5 goals past us like we were some kids in a park.

 

No one, absolutely no one is talking about how good we are when we are on it.

For as much as the likes of Arsenal on their day can beat us, we on our good day can beat them, and I’m telling you now, if we play like we have in these semi-finals, in the final, then we’ll win it, and I don’t care who we get. Us on our day, we can beat anyone.

One game to go!

 

Played and beat the teams in second, third and fourth in the league so far and probably the team in first to come next - quite a crazy set of teams to have to beat in a cup competition. Have to win it the hard way….

Think were better in these sorts of tactical games and the onus off us and on the other team. Fans okay with letting the other team have it etc.

Were excellent at that stuff. Proper old school Milan-esque.

Was just saying. Having players who are so good on the ball like Trips and Hall, and having wingers like Gordon and Murphy who who are up and down gives us so many options. We didnt look deficient anywhere.
