Match Thread Newcastle United v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[HalfTimeSayers]

Frank still in the mode of letting underperforming players dig themselves out of holes they have created by leaving them on for too long. It can work, and probably did with Terry screaming at you, but not sure our squad is built for that way of doing things.

 

[PhilRegan]

Getting rid of James and Bernard look like excellent decisions, I’m sure neither of them would improve this team.

The same troglodyte hipsters told us trippier was trash wouldn't improve us and Richarlison was over rated.

 

[Ozwell]

We are terrible. Our pattern of play is sideways pass, sideways pass, backward pass, sideways pass….. give the ball to the opposition. Then repeat!!!

 

[steven]

One attempt at goal. That’s horrific.

 

[ashwuk76]

1 attempt. 1!!!! Disgraceful performance

 

[navidson]

How is it actually possible to have 1 attempt?

I'm genuinely baffled by that

 

[NorthernBlue]

I've only watched 5 min of this match but it appears that NUFC has figured out that all we can do is counter so they are giving us the ball.

Easiest team talk ever. “Lads just let them have the ball. None of them can know what to do”

 

[jjefc06]

0 shots this half
0 shots on target in 2 games

 

[Parker]

1 shot in the last 130 odd minutes.

Pathetic.

 

[mikel_88]

Has to change this starting 11 on sat we have to be more positive just not good enough

 

[Huyton Layne]

Are they coached to be cowards? Are they given rules about who is allowed to try passes that aren't 95%+ ? Some of this "football" is mind-bogglingly bad.

 

[TheBigIguana]

Garner should've been on at half time. He must start Saturday.

He's not doing anything. He's not bad either but he's not changed anything in some massive way.

Start him fine, I just don't think people should expect a savior.

 

[GraemeS1980]

Have we got any kids that are decent on the wing, who can cross the ball?

 

[ChesterBlue]

Without looking which country is Bernard playing in

Are you saying they’d be worse than this? Seriously? We have by far the worst attack in the league

 

[Colonel Getafe]

Why did we reject any sort of money for Gordon, all pure profit which would help with FFP and we could have re-invested...

Because he is "the future" according to Frank and the board. We'll never get a golden ticket chance like that again.
