Newcastle United 0-2 Manchester City [LCSF 1st Leg] (13/01/25)


Recommended Posts

Man, there's so much of that which just feels a bit deflating. Difficult to not feel a little hard done by there.

 

Played well overall, can't really complain about the performance. Pretty proud of how we defended and stuck at it against a very good team.

 

Had the chances to win the game but didn't take them.

 

Losing on the night to a goal from a player who shouldn't really be in the game, mental that they can just throw a load of money at a player who's already played in the competition and slot him in for the semis.

 

Just a really frustrating night, don't see us going to the Etihad and winning by 2 but I guess you never know. All feels a bit what-if that.

A shame that, thought we were decent for most of it before we faded a little bit second half. Understandable given the injuries and last few games. Ramsey and Hall stood out as having particularly strong games. A bit worried about Wissa though who wasn't good at all.

 

Conceding late on AGAIN is fucking annoying, cos whilst it would have been tough at their place where they seem to get every single rub of the green going every time we go there, whether we play well or not, we may as well not bother going there with a 2 goal deficit to claw back. That said it should have been worse with the mad VAR decision.

 

City are the most boring thing in the world. Sick of the bastards and their ability to spend whatever, get rules changed for them, be dull as fuck, create next to nowt and still manage to win. Fuck them, their weird bald manager and their mostly shit fan base.

 

Just had that feeling of a game too far, sadly. Onwards to Wolves and thankfully nearly a week to rest up before it.

 

(We won't, but)... May as well play the kids second leg and rest up.

Hard to be too critical all things considered. But the tie was probably over at 2-0. It’s definitely over now. 
 

We huffed and puffed. But never really looked like scoring. Didn’t take the chances and half chances when they fell our way either. 

We did look like scoring. We just kept missing.

So undeserved this like, while we haven't had too many clear chances, we don't deserve a 0-2 defeat. We actually played quite well, against the 131 charges Many City, who are still buying players without a care in the world.

Just had too much for us, we’ve been running hot for several games now. Feel sorry for Hall and Big Joe who’ve worked their balls off to be let down by shit finishing and half arsed performances from the likes of Gordon and Elanga.

Nah. Never felt like it. Wissa has been snatching at everything of late. Woltemade doesn’t shoot. 
 

The header from Wissa and Bruno’s shot in the same passage of play was as close as we came.
