Samatta is an upgrade on Davis.  Not sure Trez is an upgrade on anyone but Conor hasn't done much.

Post by: PeterWithesShin on June 24, 2020, 05:03:45 PM
The confirmed Newcastle team v Aston Villa:

Dubravka, Manquillo, Fernandez, Lascelles, Rose, Hayden, Shelvey, Ritchie, Almiron, Joelinton, Saint-Maximin

Subs:

Darlow, Schar, Carroll, Gayle, Muto, Krafth, Yedlin, Lazaro, Bentaleb.

Luiz reward for two good games is shifted back to DM and probably back to getting slaughtered on here if he can't keep up with Almiron or Saint Maxim when they break.

Would've gone with two up front, hey ho.

See it as 4-2-3-1. McGinn will have to get through lots of defensive work and also provide threat going forward. On the basis of his first two starts it's a pretty big ask.

Expecting the worst  hoping for something that isn't an, embarrassment.

It would be nice if we could manage to play with a bit of passion and pace, instead of wandering around in a "couldn't give a shit manner".

One up front, same formation.
He's just changed a few of them around and replaced some of the deck chairs with like for like.

If we don't get something tonight, then imo that's it.

What motivational wonder spell will DS have employed?

I think that is 44 11 in attack

451 without the ball.
Either way we have to get players running past Samatta

Agree. Just isn't being bold or aggressive enough. We have been thoroughly outplayed too often with these players and shuffling them about won't change that fact. Nakamba should have started for me with DL, with Jack in the middle and 4 forward minded attackers. As it is, looks like we will be on the back foot again most of the time with the "hope" being a break away goal. Predictable

This is a vey important point. It's something the best teams do and it's not rocket science. Watching Man City the other night it struck me just how effective they are at it. They overwhelm the defence. Peps Barca team used to do it to great effect. Isolating a lone striker, as we have done in our 2 games back, then expecting him to hold the ball up long enough for the troops to arrive isn't good enough. This and our suicidal at times back line is just killing our season. I'm going to watch the game with hope in my heart that we might address these problems and come away with something in the bag...but it's the hope that kills ya.

Decent half, should have scored at least one of those good balls in. Newcastle limited, but we need to get on the ball a little more in the final 3rd, as when we do, we find time for good delivery.

It was all us for half an hour then they started looking more dangerous.  Mings, Doug, Samatta good for us.  Nowt from Trez and SJM is a shadow of his pre-injury self.  Our left side is a big problem again.

Yep, yep, and yep. Thought Samagoal should have scored, mind.

I do wish we'd cut out the CB - FB - CB - CB - FB -CB aimless passing. I said it before, it always reminds me of Bill Hicks banging on about the Kennedy assassination: "back, and to the side; back, and to the side!"

Their two subs make a difference.

We do nothing.

just feckin ax Dean already.. this is just pure negligence by the club.

Same formation, same game plan, same weak spots, same failure to make changes during the game.


WHY DO WE PAY THE MAN

How many of these kind of games have there been this season? For want of an experienced defender and a reliable attacker. It would be disappointing if nobody had raised this both in August and January. As it is, it's just annoying.

Yet more evidence (its like a fucking public library at this point) that Dean is WAY WAY out of his depth at this level - the fact Bruce of all people, has outwitted him is shocking in the extreme given has talentless he is.

It says it all that in the last 7 games, we have looked no better than the shit fest under Lambert. We are an embarrassment in this league.

He can't beat ANYONE. We were promised front-foot football and this dumb 4-3-3 pins us back into a 6-3-1 EVERY MATCH.

We can barely score a goal, let alone two. Have we hit 3 in the league once this season?

We have the worst defense in the league and we PAID for every one of them.

On the plus side, we are 1 point better off at this point than I predicted before the restart, even if it stays like this.

On the downside, I predicted we'd finish on 29pts.

He just flat out loses the club matches.

It's no one else's fault.

He stuck with an out of form Wesley for MONTHS, we've seen no collective improvement from the attacking or defensive standpoint, I don't think a single player has improved throughout his stewardship and he is the kindest, stubborn fool who's ever been at the head of the club.

It's pathetic. When i see the clubs above us I just want to give up on the game.
