Newcastle United 1-2 Brighton & Hove Albion - 02/03/2025

[BeloEmre]

You just know we gonna lose this game.

[Dr.Spaceman]

Good half, canny game. Hopefully we can nick it in the second.

[Yorkie]

Very annoying, like. Off the ball we'd been really good but not done enough with it. That's ended up costing us cos they've had too many opportunities to build attacks. Goal was lucky as fuck though.

No idea why Minteh didn’t celebrate 

He’s our new RW purple signing in the summer 

[SiLvOR]

We're absolutely desperate for a fast CB, ridiculous how easy we are to run past

He's grateful we took a chance on him. He was desperate to play in the premier league. He probably knows we didn't want to let him go either. 

[LiquidAK]

Annoying. Played well overall but gifted another sloppy goal. Again.

Our back line is painfully slow 

 

Like watching 2 geriatrics.

 

Burn got the agility of the titanic and thinks hes a winger and Schar couldnt pass a fart

Not really 

[Ikon]

We are so poor in possession. Saying it too often. 

[nufc4eva]

We just don't seem to have any real energy, they can just play through us and we never try to just calm the game down, keep the ball for a bit. Treating it like a fucking hot potato just brings pressure on us time and time again. We are also fucking pathetic with our passing either too slow or no accuracy.

[Ilovetoon8788]

This is pathetic to watch. If this is how we going to be in the finals then good luck as it might be a cricket score. 

[Smal]

it is sadly becoming increasingly apparent that Fab shouldn’t be starting for us anymore. It’s also pretty apparent that the club knows that though. He won’t be starting next season.

[STM]

Schar has been horrific. Getting worse by the week. A shame because he used to be class.

[54]

Cagey game, which felt pretty comfy in the main, with us being decent out of possession and breaking well, but that goal is annoying, even if it was a good move. 

[TRon]

Can't complain at the score, even though I thought we had it sewn up after Isak's goal which got ruled out.

 

Both teams look shaky when pressed which is making this a bit of a lottery. Hopefully Isak will be the difference, because no one else looks like scoring so far.

We're clearly set up to sit in a block and hit them on the counter, but we've not looked very convincing.

 

We're so passive when we setup this way and the crowd goes to sleep too.

 

Don't have an issue with the tactic but just something about the way the team implements it that is off.

[nufc4eva]

We need to find other ways to play against teams like this and move them out of shape rather than just lose it all the time and hope for a counter

[SUPERTOON]

In terms of our weaknesses we see week in week out, nothing is going to change until the summer where they will hopefully be addressed in the window. We don’t have the personnel to fix the issues now imo.

[r0cafella]

Can't say I'm overly impressed with us , we look sluggish to me and struggle to move the ball forward.

think we’ve done it really well to be honest. They’ve had one shot and we’ve had chances.

 

We've not been terrible, but we've been wasteful when we've had the ball.

[Zero]

Again not his fault to be chosen as starting CB. We have no one else.

[Aiston]

Leaving Schar 1v1 with someone as quick as Minteh is a bigger problem than Schar's quality.

[KennyUtd]

Not brilliant that and conceding from their first attempt is pretty sickening. Let's hope we can buck the trend and perform in the 2nd half. Desperate for a mobile centre back mind. To go with Botman obviously. 

[The Butcher]

Can't wait for that new and shiny RCB in the summer like.
