Newcastle v Villa match thread

[Footy-Vill]

One of the criticisms aimed at the Manager was that he had no plan B. He needs a fucker now.

Absolutely.  The ability to change the formation and use your subs.   Let’s see what he does to earn the label of being a manager.

He doesn't change the system He may change the players.  He'll put it on players saying things like we don't compete. We'll all we relying on are set pieces which aren't good enough. Wonder what they do in training because the passing isn't up to much in final ball.
Can look very good but the accuracy and quality is lacking

Last season Ollie was our only real choice. Davies couldnt score and neither could Wes when he was fit.

But Ings is an option now and should be used.

And the management should rip into the players

[RamboandBruno]

Watkins, McGinn, Luiz have been fucking atrocious.

Yep, lots of arm waving from McGinn and Watkins in particular. Losing the midfield battle to Shelvey and Joelinton is laughable. Id hook McGinn and Watkins for Sanson and Ings on 55/60 if things dont improve.

[Steve67]

Lost the ball again already!!

[Stinkin_Thinkin]

I'd just use Couthinio like we used Grealish. Give him the ball as quick as possible and get runners around him.
Take the handbrake off

[ChicagoLion]

At least we didn’t waste any money on a defensive midfield player.

[ez]

You have to look at the coaching to account for this performance.

[Steve67]

Fuck sake Cash.  How many touches do you need?

[JUAN PABLO]

Cash is so wasteful

[Footy-Vill]

For me there's still hope as a game of two halves and that will step up the intensity but its all the same these games now. Think can still slavage something
Very frustrating though

[JUAN PABLO]

Tripper off

[TonyD]

Cash is truly rubbish. 

[Steve67]

Trippier going off.  Good for us. But we have to take advantage.

[eamonn]

No changes at half time. Lads, you can play as bad as you like, you won't be hooked.

[Flamingo Lane]

Anything resembling a half decent move always seems to end up at the feet of Cash, and that is where it ends.
