Other Football 2023/24

[Bobby Hundreds]

Come on Villa you cave dwelling fucks!

[Anubis]

Villa’s defence is shite. Improved slightly once Mings was carried off, but shite.

[Torvald Utne]

They should check Martinez's gloves, judging by almiron's reaction I can only assume he has a shotgun hidden in them

[3 Stacks]

I get the being tribal thing when you are at a stadium, but Newcastle supporters booing the referee for what is about the clearest example of a non red card, makes them look all clueless.

[bossy]

Is there a stream for this? 

[No2]

How is that Newcastle goal not offside? Burn is off blocking the Villa defender.

 

The Martinez one is very close to red, I don't know how any can say otherwise.  Not that dissimilar to Mo last season at Newcastle, a professional footballer with the ball at his feet, 35 yards from goal should be considered a goal scoring opportunity if there is no goalkeeper.

I'm not even convinced it was a foul, putting a hand on a shoulder is not a foul, almiron felt it and flung himself.  Anyway there were 3 defenders back.

Struggling to be arsed with this new season, such is the vacuous nature of the modern game. It's becoming soulless.

[Anubis]

Konsa. Fucking hell.

Isak is about twice the player Nunez is which is a bit embarrassing. 

[Elite]

Abysmal defending, Good finish from Isak.

I was thinking the same. Managed to have a little giggle about the shite losing at home, but apart from that it's all a bit meh!

[Pidge]

Lovely finish, shocking error.

Not so sure about that - but what he definitely is, is a player who fits into the system his team plays and his strengths maximised.

 

Whereas Nunez - well, you know.....

Nunez is a bigger goal threat but the way football goes nowadays, you cant tradeoff all around ability and off ball work.

Thought villa were going to be defensively sound! We shouldn't be fearing them in a couple of weeks, well, getting in a recognised 6 aside that is!

I don't think itvwas a red but it wasn't far off.

[an tha]

What a fairytale this Newcastle story is eh.....

[niallers]

Just goes to show that against these teams that low block, taking the lead is paramount toget then to come out and chase the game. Villa are all over the place

[polymerpunkah]

Villa are a shambles.

 

The count's got some work to do.
