Newcastle (H) - Match Thread - 26/12/2022

[Clever Fox]

Brendan is lulling Newcastle into a false sense of security before the Cup Game.

[Sly]

I’ve been done for Rodgers since that Forest FA cup game. We need new energy and direction.

He’s had 6 weeks with the majority of them to get them ready and they’ve turned out like this. Its on him. 

Exactly. The more time he spends training with them the more confused they look. It's like match day one all over again. 

[Larry_LCFC]

How can the only reaction to being 3-0 down at home be to take a striker off and bring Vardy on. I remember now why I hate Brendan Rodgers.

[Staff]

65 minuted in, popes still not made a save 

[StanSP]

It's infuriating we're losing, but even more infuriating that we've not even tested Pope since half-time.

 

No clear-cut opportunities and don't even look like getting close to creating one.

Completely outclassed by a superior team unfortunately. 

Completely outclassed by a football team.

 

This Leicester City side is not showing they know how to play so even Accrington Stanley would be running rings around us today

We ain't going no where with this team and manager

The championship begs to difffer! 

[EnderbyFox]

How is Soumare still on 

[Sly]

I mean, Daka was dreadful, however he’s not the reason we’re 3-0 down ‘.

[Guest Mickyblueeyes]

3-0 down 65th minute. No change of system Brendan ? 

[filbertway]

Genius tactics this half! Finish a sequence of pointless passes by lumping it to Pope and continuing not to press.

 

You can see why he's as smug as he is when you see his team playing this way

Wait, since half time? When did we test him in the first half?

[hejammy]

BR not seen in the technical area for a good 20 mins where as Eddie Howe has barely left it. 

[Dahnsouff]

We are wearing them down with our endless unexpected misplaced passes, soon they will there for the taking

[KingsX]

No sense getting frustrated about this ref.

 

Even if we paid him his weight in gold, he couldn’t contrive to throw this match in our favor.

[Sly]

Mendy, Vestegaard, Soyuncu, Iversen. 
 

Could have played them, doubt it would have been worse.

Promised him we would take it easy against him. He has had a few beers last night and it just wouldnt be fair to kick a man when he is down so proud of our lads for caring.

 

[foxes_rule1978]

So when are we going to put more attackers on? 

[Bazly]

Why is Vardy playing down the right wing rather than the centre?

He saved from Daka in the first half when we almost got a penalty
