I know the word shit gets thrown around in a hyperbolic way quite alot on forums but in this case its very apt.We haven't forced there keeper into one single save all game.It seems Gerrard has one system and one system only, all changes will be like for like to fit that one system.They wont have an easier win all season, we couldn't have been more accomadating to them. Started slowly, gifted them a goal then proceeded to slow the game down at will which allowed them to get back into shape. Then when we shouldve been frantically at them in the last 15 minutes we gave away an insane of amount of stupid free kicks. If Gerrard is to stick with this system, and boy does it look like he will, then you cant have a lone striker that cant hold the ball up. Literally everything came straight back at us as soon as we passed/hoofed it up to Watkins and due to this we couldnt get Coutinho/Ramsey/Buendia far enough up the putch to hurt them. Davis would be a much better fit to this system than Watkins or Ings.
Got my second dose of COVID presently and to be honest that's more enjoyable than that pile of turd. I'm starting to think no one can get a tune out of half of this squad. Congratulations to all the team for spending the last ten minutes giving away pointless free kicks to make sure the clock ran down with no pressure on the Geordie's. Off back to bed.

One bloody shot on target against that shower. Embarrassing.In the last 5 days, Newcastle beat Everton easily, Everton batter Leeds, who were the better side against us......Jesus how bad are we?
That was a massively disjointed performance. The fact that Sanson can't get into this team must mean that there is a problem with him. At the moment, I see absolutely nothing from the not to super John McGinn or Douglas Luiz to keep them in the starting eleven, other than we simply have no-one to replace them. Newcastle did their best to disrupt the flow of the game, their keeper going down so Eddie Howe could organise his midfield is top class Martinez style shithousery. We give the ball away far too much with no pressure on us at all. Our forwards are not firing at all. Cash couldn't cross his arms, never mind the ball. Watkins, what the hell has happened to you son? Fucking useless today. Ramsey was the only midfielder who gets a pass from me today. Bit unlucky with the free kick, bit unlucky with the disallowed goal, but that happens. We need a sneaky peak over the shoulder, because if we think we are a good side, we have another thing coming. Really, really frustrating. PhilVill, get well soon matey.
Another thing..... Why the fuck is Luiz on set pieces? He has never scored a free kick and im struggling to remember him assisting from a corner. Who the fuck has come up with that decision, especially when we have Coutinho here.
