Same old **** really. Refused to watch, but Bruces interview is enough, what type of pointless substitution is Ritchie for Krafth? Instantly caused confusion and cost the game. Was Krafth injured or was it the master meddler meddling?
Apparently Lascelles in his interview said they didn’t know what was happening when Ritchie came on. Bruce threw both Ritchie and Dubs under the bus in his interview. Also Lascelles had a barnie with Bruce after the game. Bruce did tell Jones to **** off too. What a mess!
No surprises, I'm feeling much happier taking a step back and ignoring Newcastle tbh. Coach is a buffoon, has actively made me hate the club I once loved. Well done him.
I wish I could be that optimistic. The time of punishing Bruce was months ago, his damage to Newcastle United will take years to repair, under this regime, many of them. Clubs worse than its ever been and any other season, I think bottom of the league.
It will end soon. The pain and destruction. Steve won’t be able to lie and talk **** because the table doesn’t lie come game 38.
Are these injuries a result of the coaching? Or bad tactics? Bad game planning? Players doing things they are not supposed to be? Over compensating for others who are not doing there jobs? Fine margins. But it’s bizarre that the injuries are happening to the “important”’players! What is ASM injury? Genuine question.
Well it seems to follow Bruce around and I think it's been poor management. We already knew the fixture congestion was an issue and that this season it was going to be even worse because there was no off season and the season started late, but nufc wanted their little cup runs didn't they? I hope they all remember their famous cup runs of 20/21 when the clubs mid table on the championship. The clubs run by idiots and the fans were demanding cup runs.
Bruce won't play him mate, but I agree we should ... It'll be Fraser who was useless once again yesterday apart from 1 hopeful cross into the box and Murphy who makes 1 good run out of every 20. The situation really is bad and it's exactly whar rafa arrived to avoid.... Say what you want about rafa, but when it was crunch time we rarely had more than 1 key player out because he rested, rotated and sacrificed pointless cup runs to ensure it. I believe we're going down... We might get 3 to 6 points from the last 2 games when we get a few back, but we won't take a single point all our best players missing... Just isn't going to happen...we struggle with them, so without pppfftt
If we play Murphy then we have to play Carroll. No point having a good crosser of the ball and then having Gayle in the centre
I hate all 3 players... Joelinton offers more off the ball that most though, so we'll need him regardless of how **** he is offensively. Fraser can cross and run around making it look like he's trying to tackle, I never saw him make a single tackle yesterday... He can't win a ball and it's not good enough. Gayle scores the odd poachers goal from chances and has a reputation a a goal scorer, but he misses far more than he scores ... He can finish better than Joelinton that's for sure, but like Fraser he just runs about with his arse halfway up his back and hopes to be fed golden opportunities and that's not good enough. The back up for our key players is such a drastic drop it's a disgrace quite frankly. We lose most games with our best players available, so I wonder what will happen without them? We're ****ed!
