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

[nsno_traditionally]

Wel only score with a set play.

You're right but it's a shame we have nobody to take a decent one

 

[Azza]

Bringing on McNeil when you already took off Dominic Calvert-Lewin makes no sense

It's not like he's going to actually cross the ball though is it. So really doesn't matter.

 

[Milkman]

Our problem is that none of our players run towards the other goal

 

[Dougie]

Why do we keep playing long balls up to whoever is marked by Dan Burn?

Because it’s the last thing Newcastle would expect pure genius

 

[Runub]

Has our XG gone down after tonight?

Haven’t scored from a corner all season.

Actually playing quite well here. Newcastle dont deserve anything from it but they will probably get the 3 points. Tired of good performances and no points

Hmmm…

Newcastle 15 attempts at goal, 4 on target.

Everton, 1 attempt at goal, 0 on target.

I said we’ve tried. Far more than we did under Rafael.

I don’t think we ever had 1 shot in a game under Benitez. Never mind 2 shots on target across 3 consecutive games.

Most surprising thing for me tonight is how Andy Townsend hasn't been annoying ????????

I mean, he definitely has

Commentatress ‘frustrating for Frank Lampard and his players’

Frustrating!!! Try being a fan of them!!

 

[Fansince1988]

This side doesn’t know how to attack

Unfortunately that’s where we came up short in the transfer window, Gordon should have been sold ( if there was genuine interest) and we should have reinvested it on attacking players.

 

[ChesterBlue]

This has been an embarrassing performance against a distinctly average Newcastle

 

[Zeitgeist]

Just cba with how bad our attackers are so soul destroying to watch

 

[diggerdestroyer]

1 attempt is an absolute disgrace

crazy stat. ridiculous. and no shot on target last game so that's 190 mins plus we havent hit the target. if it was big Sam he would be getting slated and rightly so

 

[ForeverEverton]

Wel only score with a set play.

Doubt it, they been turgid this season.....
