[Shogun]

It's funny that the ball never ends up back with Pope because he's so bad with it at his feet that Howe won't risk it

[777Kidnappings]

Is this the same Rashford people didn't want here because he was finished?

No I think the 1 we didn't want was on 400k a week

[Shogun]

You feel like Pedri and De Jong could keep the ball as long as they want and never risk losing it

[Bluedylan1]

Newcastle haven't got enough creativity and guile in the middle of the pitch. Far too cross heavy.

[TheRam]

Is this the same Rashford people didn't want here because he was finished?

When was this even discussed?

De Jong booked after giving the ball away

[TheRam]

Feel like Newcastle need to replace at least half that team if they ever want to finish above 5th.

Gordon is getting by off his movement and nothing else. He’s been found out at the top level. You can’t have him as your best attacker and expect to challenge teams like barca.

Is he ever scoring a goal like rashford did tonight?

[Shogun]

Want to slag anyone else off?

[TheRam]

Want to slag anyone else off?

Jack Grealish is fucking shite.

[Audrey Horne]

De Jong booked after giving the ball away

[Free Agent]

Jack Grealish is fucking shite.

Vile shite or fucking shite? There’s a subtle difference.

[Shogun]

YES PEP

Amorim's reasoning for sticking with his system remains the same.

He feels if he bows to pressure it will undermine him in the eyes of his players.

"If I'm a player and I have a coach that, with a lot of pressure and [people] all around the world, are saying 'you need to change the system', says 'I'm going to change', they will look at me in a different way.

I've never seen a bigger admission of being a weak leader than this.

Strong leaders don't draw their authority from ostentatious displays of inflexibility.

[Audrey Horne]

Surely a strong leader can recognise his own weakness and work to rectify it??

[Cereal Killer]

I've never seen a bigger admission of being a weak leader than this.

Strong leaders don't draw their authority from ostentatious displays of inflexibility.

So instead he just looks arrogant, stubborn and incompetent in the eyes of his players, fair enough
