Newcastle (A) - Sun 27th Aug 2023 (4:30pm)

[John102]

Feels like a lifetime ago since Stuart Pearce tipped Newcastle to win the league.

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

Woke up in a fresh t-shirt I wasn't out in last night. My gf informed me I locked myself out and she found me curled up vomiting on the front steps.

 

It's gonna be a long day but rewatching the highlights and post match interviews will ease my gargantuan discomfort.

I think he will be a great skipper but otherwise agree with everything else you have said.

 

I thought he was lazy to go that extra yards quickly yesterday to close down Isak. In fact I would say he is far too lazy and laid back in lots of similar instances, especially last season. 

He was split between the two attackers and had to hedge a bit. Thought carra was harsh calling it lazy, it's the lack of his old recovery pace that meant he felt he had to try and nip the ball away. He should have just gone shoulder to shoulder, isak would have dived but it wouldn't have been a foul.

I know he has never been forgiven for turning out for the Mancs but Owen , on my match feed, nearly ran out of the studio with excitement when Nunes scored the winner. Les Ferdinand , on also , was very complimentary to us.

 

I don't have it in me to bear any grudge against Michael Owen. He's a great pundit too, always enjoy listening to his insight on strikers and finishing.

Had he not just booked Trent he would have carded him for the later challenge 

Ref completely fucked it up and he knew it 

He shouldn’t have been booked for either.

Agreed. How many times have we seen the exact same foul on Mo, when we don’t even get a free kick, let alone see a card come out.

[Lario]

Just started reading this thread at page 24 and Nunez scored at page 31.

Haven't read past that yet, but some of you "supporters" are a fucking disgrace.

 

Carry on.

Yeah I should have added by some. He is always pro us and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed listening to him and Big Les , no bs just decent punditry.

Newcastle now have some very good players. 

 

Thankfully, they also have a no-mark manager who players cowardly football that won't get the best out of them. 

Pope, Trippier, Botman, Guimares and Tonali are very good players. The rest of them are fucking bang average and why I think they will struggle when European football starts. 

Botman went off yesterday and they brought on Matt Targett and moved Burn to CB. Even if that Chelsea kid is a good left-back, they still have to choose between choosing Dan Burn or Lascelles to partner Fabian Schar at the back.

 

Their lineup at the end yesterday was:

Pope

Trippier Schar Burn Targett

Longstaff Guimares Anderson

Almiron Wilson Barnes.

 

That finishes bottom half, at best.

This goes down as one of my most favouritist away games.

 

Can't be arsed arguing VVD's red now - no point in appealing as there is a case. Upset with Shearer and Richards talking about Newcastle's chances - why didn't MOTD show a few? One Ali save and a good shot against the post. Fuck all else.

 

If TAA had gone for body check then they wouldn't have scored at all (one way of looking at it).

 

Fantastic scenes in away end will live in the memory for ever 

Enjoy again lad:

Somebody was talking about how we are on top with 42 goals scored after 90+ mins and wondering how many of them were under Klopp.
 

From what I can gather, this is the list:

Alisson – WBA

Mane - Villa
Mane – Everton
Origi – Everton
Origi – Wolves
Lallana – Norwich
Carvalho – Newcastle
Nunez – Newcastle

Jota - Spurs
Firmino – Spurs
Klavan – Burnley
 

11 out of 42 under Klopp.

And they're still not being consistent. Several players took ages to take a throw - no card, in spite of Trent getting one a couple of weeks ago. Obstructing free kicks being taken - several quite blatant examples, none carded. Once again - unless refs show consistency, they can't complain about being criticised (and yet they do).

When they first announced this rule I had a premonition (because I've got a psychic gift, or something) of a few months of refs flinging cards around erratically and ruining matches, fans and media getting sick of it, then the whole thing being "subject to new guidance" (i.e. dropped) halfway through the season.

I imagine Les appreciated the big centre forward doing exactly what a big centre forward should do.

 

I've always had a bit of a soft spot for Les Ferdinand.  He was a quality player and never comes across as a twat.

Surely he is perfectly entitled to tell the 4th official to get his hands off him. His had should be nowhere near a player, ever. 

Correct.  It's the lino's job to elbow players.

As if brushing a player's shoulder is ever a bookable offence.

 

Shitrat should have been booked for his dive.

Cheers, that was me wondering. Out of rep at the moment. 

 

Also, Milner penalty on 95 minutes against Leicester in 2019.

Benteke penalty away at Palace was 96 mins or so....

Salah at home v Tottenham in 2018 in that 2-2 draw was another

Found full list here - it is a lot more than 42 as well....

It's a phenomenal legacy under Klopp. There were a few in Europe too. Dortmund and PSG spring to mind.
