Tonight was abject, I expected us to lose, but, I hadn't realized just how poor Newcastle were. If the best we can manage is 1 shot off target and none on target against a team who played as badly as Newcastle did tonight ,we are in far more trouble than I had thought. Hopefully we pick up a few wins in our remaining fixtures before the world cup, just to take the pressure off.
As much as I think Mykolenko is a decent defender, I think, until Patterson is back, we have to think about playing Vinagre at left back and using Holgate as right back. Coleman and Mykolenko are providing no threat whatsoever going forward. Hopefully Holgate's more defensive style would enable us to give Vinagre licence to fly down the left. I also think Gordon and Gueye both need some time out of the team, the upcoming fixtures look like a good opportunity to integrate Garner.
