beatty

We need to get more into the MC box when attacking. Mainly RIviere plus a late runner to attack the ball, which is far too easy to defend against, Surprisingly not bad, apart from Dummett. Lad is such a trained player, who goes through all the basics and cannot seem to think for himself. Always a simple pass, long one back to Krul or channel ball. A bit like Danny Simpson in that regard. I get that he's so conditioned that he has decent positional awareness and can tackle a bit, but fullback are such an important position in many more ways than that.

Janmaat was dropped by van Gaal for tactical reasons. Only seen a little of him, but what I saw I liked.

Yes CT, this is exactly what we should be doing

I mean, you only have to look at how Aarons tormented his defender on the other wing to see what kind of effect a pacey winger should have on the game.

Nah, still dopey and unable to play at pace under a modicum of pressure. Didn't see anything in his play to suggest he'll make an impact this season. Supposed to have been two clubs there to watch him, so if all goes to plan that may be the last we see of him in a Newcastle strip.

Aarons just burst through 3 players and opted to take a sketchy at best shooting chance when he had Riviere free to his left. Would have been a clear cut opportunity for Riviere. Brilliant and shit in the space of 5 seconds.

Probably given the choice.

Reasonable enough bloke, until the last sentence

Word is Cabella hasn't dribbled much tonight. Guess he's discovered our game plan.

Guy passed a letter to a member of the cabin crew warning them that there was a bomb on board. Fucking hell :lol:

Seems they're on top of the situation.

He is extremely limited on the ball and very sluggish physically. Very Danny Simpson in possession; if a simple pass is not available he immediately looks for a channel ball. Not the hallmarks of a promising youngster. Not sure what he's done to merit the first team exporsure.

Sterling comparison is so lazy and not that accurate.

Definitely an improvement on Gosling Dunno about Guthrie. After all, he was actually a very tidy player and was a genuine stand out performer on his day.

Somehow manages to look competent one second and utterly lost the next. His inability to maintain a basic level of concentration is going to prevent him from retaining a first team place.

Another alarming lapse from Yanga-Mbiwa. Was he like this before we signed him?

Enjoyed Dummett utterly failing to be his man more than I should. Tried a step-over, left the ball behind and was unable to reposition himself

Gouffran is not a deep lying forward. Just offers nothing to that role.

One with more penetration.

Would like a different set penis option to the one which has worked once in three years. Pardew talks to the players like they're 10 year olds who are just learning the game.
