Rondon not being fit isn’t the managements fault ??‍

He’s just not fancied because he was a Benitez buy.

 

[Bungle]

I'm here to stage an intervention, talk to me about your problems at home guys, why do you express yourselves like this?

 

[Mozza1987]

Get Gordon off. Absolutely garbage

 

[Nyhus]

Get Gordon on the left or take him off. He cannot play striker. Honestly, today he doesnt look like he could play anywhere. No passes stick, cant win the ball, just being a nothing player today. I like him, but hes just running back and forth doing nothing.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

the whole situation is the managements fault. how can you enter a season with no fit forward at the club. it's a absolute shambles.

Gordon should be dragged off half time. Can’t even do the basics here.

the balls getting pumped to him

we can’t keep hold of the ball

 

[dannyboy]

I’d take all 3 of them off; get Rondon Dele and Onana on

They’re embarrassing themselves out there. They can’t occupy anyone or hold the ball up

It'd be the same with those 3. Formation leaves the attackers so isolated.

Gordon OFF!

 

[Dublin blue 75]

Newcastle will not be coming in with a late window bid for Gordon

 

[God Benfrey]

No one can tell me we would be this bad if rondon started, absolutely useless up top, at least rondon would hold it up

 

[everton fan number one]

It's the old tactic of go 1 down and wait for the ops to get complacent. Then hope to nick a draw.

 

[bluesb1970]

Going to be a long season

 

[stevie blott]

If Frank doesn’t change this at half time he won’t see Christmas as manager here.

He really will, we cannot dispose of this backroom now without totally killing the club.

 

[Jadubsee]

Players don’t want it enough, jogging round, half tackles, half passes, half shots

Same old same old

Yep, no movement whatsoever when we get the ball up the pitch. Everyone standing around hoping someone else will make something happen

 

[Bob Latchford]

Massive chance there.
