Newcastle v Villa match thread

[Smirker]

Maybe our worst half of the season.

Diabolical with nothing to cheer or get excited about.

Hammer them at HT Steven 

Douglas needs to be banned from set pieces.

[eamonn]

Possibly one of our worst halves of the season so far?

No possibly about it.

[Risso]

We’ve actually got two set piece coaches now haven’t we? The div out of Hanson and the bloke Gerrard brought with him.

[Steve67]

That was as poor a half as anything I saw under Dean Smith or Steve Bruce.  That was a super shambles.  Cash can't cross, McGinn fouls or gives the ball away.  Mings punts, Luiz is anonymous again.  As for Watkins, he is almost Jordan Boweryesque at the minute.  Stop waving you arms around and be a bit stronger.  Terrible half of football.  If Gerrard expects to buy his way to success good luck to him but I reckon you have to coach them properly first.

[Aldridge Villa]

Let’s hope that was the bad half.

[N'ZMAV]

Absolutely fucking wank. The worst 45 all fucking season.

reminds me of the opening fixture at Watford

[Damo70]

It would appear that our players hadn't met each other before until they met up in the pub car park at lunchtime.

[Allan C]

Possibly the worst half I’ve seen this season, no definitely the worst. Not just individuals, the whole lot of them. Yes Watkins is poor but he’s had no service, yes Luiz is shocking but McGinn and Buendia are worse. I hope SG rips them all a new arsehole cos they desperately need it

[PhilVill]

What's the point in having a world class player if you have no plan whatsoever to get him on the ball?

[Nunkin1965]

Surely we can't be that bad in the second half.
We've been so poor all over the place from the keeper to the centre forward.

[TonyD]

That team is woefully underperforming.
Something ain’t right.

It was bad, but first half against Arsenal was different level terrible.

Can have all the coaches on the world, if you keep kicking the ball badly they'll come to nothing

Genius

[pauliewalnuts]

Luiz can fuck off as well, offers nothing but truly shit free kicks and corners.
