Super_Steve_Howey 0 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I always find myself saying, we'll get beat if we play next time like that, but at the end of the day, don't we just play like that when the opposition are shite and there's nowt to play for? I can't get it out of my mind that under Keegan that game would have been a slaughter Probably just rose tinted an all that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missed Sticks 0 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Biggest disappointment was Duff imo. Only came into it when the part timers were feeling cramp and our superior fitness made a difference. 1st half their RB had him in his pocket tbh.

Another quality finish from our most entertaining interviewee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long is it since we gave anyone a real thrashing? Pompy 3-0? West Brom 3-0 twice last year... Not many like. I'm not talking threes and fours. We used to put five, six or seven past sides regularly (well, a couple of times a season). Don't think we've had one of those since before Sourmess.

This dutch side sound like they are going to be a handful. Not the easiest of draws but finally it becomes a decent competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakehips 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Last night was just a training exercise really. Zulte had no intention of 'going for it' so Newcastle just went through the motions without any real urgency. A lot of the runs by Bert Luque and Martins were ignored for some reason. For only the second time in my life, I left before the final whistle (first was the FA Cup game against Cov 3 or 4 seasons ago). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pavels Travels 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 I thought las night was alright, i would have took it at the start . No bookings , no injuries and a clean sheet. It was hardly a massive work out so hopefully all the lads should be fully fit for Sunday. They had no intention of going for it , we might as well have sat back in our own half and played triangles. Not the greatest of games to sit through but im looking at the bigger picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know why? Nope, you got any ideas? I have seen far less of Duff than other folk, but the impression I have is: a) he doesn't get the greatest of support from the left back - whether that's been babayaro or whoever, b he seems to want to trick his way into a scoring opportunity for himself - rather than others. Whether b is a direct result of a I don't know; maybe he gets frustrated at not being as integral/significant to a game as he feels he could be and overcompensates? Just a thought.
