Newcastle (A) - EFL Cup - Match Thread

[TrickyTrevLeftPeg]

Perez needs to come off. He's just standing about. He's absolutely awful. His performance so far has been nothing but shocking 

[Nick]

Daka will score soon.

Daka has the touch of a baby elephant 

You know I agree his touch is dodgy, but in a brendan rodgers system you can't judge anyone. He makes you infinitely look worse when there's any sign of adversity. He's a quitter 

[EastAnglianFox]

Im just sat gobsmacked at how its got to this....and yet he's still in a job and will be regardless of this or the weekends result

Famous best fans in the country ! 

Thing is, if it was us. Yes we'd be happy we so far on top but also really annoyed that they haven't scored.

Genuine question, what is our game plan here? Can anyone on here actually identify what it is that we are attempting to do?

 

It's one thing to try and fail to implement something, it's another entirely to seemingly have absolutely no idea what we are or what we want to try to do. 

No and worryingly I couldn’t really suggest anything to improve it. 

[kingkisnorbo]

Convinced that piss coloured badge is having an affect on us.

To be fair, others have matched him.

Castagne and thomas are so lost

I don’t get the love for Castagne. I mean he’s better than Thomas but he’s so far off peak Ricardo and Justin.

What is our tactics here?

Relax mate, ol' Rodgers hasn't pulled out his notepad yet. The magic is yet to come!

[fox_favourite]

What is actually our game plan for this game? Forfeit it?! Players are all over the place. No shape.

Ndidi can’t pass 5 yards

 

Been our best player so far.  Sticking a foot in.

 

 

[StanSP]

We can't string 3 passes together. 

 

Embarrassing.

Same can be said for Barnes, Daka, Thomas, Albrighton, Timmy, Youri, Ndidi, Amartey, Faes....

The Saudis will be taking heads off if Newcastle don’t starting putting these chances away 

Can they start with Rodgers first?

[goody2028]

We win this 0-1 don’t we 

[Filberts lovechild]

Can’t remember us looking so outclassed… since we last played Newcastle 

[Dahnsouff]

Playing for penalties clearly

Get Mendy on for him and put Tielemans further up the pitch.

We are working from the Clingon school of tactics
