goose2010 Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 “Our goalkeeper didn’t make a save for 32 minutes. Then their goalkeeper lumped it over the top and we had panic stations. Then we were frazzled. There was an upturn in the second period for a short time, but sometimes you have to give credit to the opposition. They had their tails up.” Problem is Deano their keeper didnt have to make a save all night! 2
StanSP Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 Might as well give KDH and Mendy a go. The midfield will get battered but might as well try something different Wilson and Isak are bound to terrorise our defence too. 2

Whilst true, its easy to overlook that Liverpool are - on their day - still one of the absolute best club sides on the planet, expensively assembled and managed by a world class coach who is one of the best of his generation. Newcastle shouldn't be under estimated and they're obviously in a much, much better place to us right now but they're not exactly in the same class as Liverpool. Scoring goals hasn't been our problem lately and isn't likely to be our biggest issue against Newcastle. Besides, any clean sheet at all gives us a massive chance of being able to actual escape on the final day. A draw in Newcastle would be huge. 1
whetstonefox Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 I’ll be watching this on Sky, be interesting to see our body language in the tunnel, will probably be a give away of what will happen

But tbf their keeper had to stop the Vardy effort near the start of the game after the Barnes lay off, and the Barnes curler in the second half. Otherwise, I agree we didn’t do enough after 30 minutes and we collapsed after Faes cock up with the first goal. Far too easy for them.
Guest Col city fan Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 Can’t help thinking we’ll get absolutely mullered at their place. Maddison might put a shift in, to get his ‘dream move’, but our defence v Wilson and Isaak.. 😳

Instead of singing about our current shi te squad we should get the old songs going about former players like the Ulloa song. Vardy is an exception though of course. Start with my favourite..

Sunbury Fox Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 Only 29 tickets left in the away end for this. So it looks like 3k fans are making the trip on Monday. Fair play, that is proper dedication! 1
Vacamion Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 We need to get one of our smaller players to mark Dan Burn at set pieces. To elbow him in the cream crackers.
southfox66 Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 Sadly Newcastle would have to have an off day and we would have to put in the performance of the season to get anything out of this.

Four of the performances were quite good. The goals we’ve given away in the last two games haven’t been good enough.” I could criticise these players but I don’t need to. The work ethic is there. We’ve got to make fewer mistakes in the defensive third.” “I don’t like playing on a Monday, especially when there’s only two games to go. I don’t want to change tactics based on what we need. I know we need at least a point.” Fair play to Smith here, he's played a blinder by picking up a nice pay packet to do absolutely **** all but make excuses. Double points for saying the fans giving up "hasn't filtered through" after spending 5 minutes saying that the players have basically given up.

Mickyblueeyes Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 This will be embarassing. If Newcastle play how they can, they’ll be 3 up in no time. And then it will just be free flowing. Do we really need to play this ? Let’s just forfeit. It’s done.

funkyrobot Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 (edited) We are so poor that we could be the on the end of a loss that beats the current 9-0 record that we currently hold with Liverpool and Man U. Wonder what the odds are on a 10-0 smashing? Edited 18 May 2023 by funkyrobot
BenTayfour Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 Did Bruno Guimaraes got injured at the end of the game. It would be great to have both of their midfielders out.

dylanlegend Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 Gotta switch it up for this game, go with the formation that won us the FA Cup: GK: Iversen CB: Faes CB: Evans CB: Soyuncu RWB: Castagne LWB: Thomas CM: Ndidi CM: Youri AMC: Maddison CF: Barnes CF: Vardy
Stuntman_Mike Posted 18 May 2023 Posted 18 May 2023 Iversen Ricardo Souttar The first person to board coach 1 Kristiansen Albrighton (West Brom season is done gerrim in) Mendy Hamza (Watford season is done gerrim in) KDH Nacho Vardy
