Shocking performance.

 

You can't keep facing 25-30 shots per game and expect to get anything.

 

Need a couple of signing in January, one has got to be a defender, think we need a RB if we can't rely on Ricardo, Justin looks dreadful. I think we need a winger too.

that'd be one long con since Ward was signed by Puel

Fvck me, amazing how hate makes your brain rewrite things.  Over to my next most hated person - Rudkin you imbecile.

[Dan]

I don't pin the entire loss on him because we'd have lost it regardless of him, but Ward still getting games in December 2024 tells me pretty much everything about this club - no standards, no ruthlessness. Would've been sold by virtually any other club after what happened two seasons ago.

 

That and Brentford two of the worst performances I've ever seen from us. Injuries or not that was a disgrace, completely lacking in literally any positive. A **** you to the fans to be honest.

[Ian Nacho]

Only positive out of today is Barnes looked useless when he came on.

Cooper had a full squad to choose from though and we’ve just had two decent results.

Both lucky results

They helped us out playing him on the right, nothing was ever going to happen

Skipp is maybe the worst player I’ve seen in a Leicester shirt. 25mill, 25!!!!!!!!!!

But again, with none of our best CM, available…. We didn’t concede as much against Brighton. It’s just a bloody crying shame we lost all of our midfield in that game too. Ruud had a rough one today, but it happens. At least he sets the team up to be open and have a go…. We would have been just as bad under Cooper and probably would have lost just as easily with all the players available.

He is ****ing diabolical. I was dead wrong about him, thought he was a shrewd signing, but I can’t actually tell you what he does, he can’t tackle properly, has a shocking first touch, can’t pass and can’t keep hold of a football. He’s absolute dross. Junior Lewis levels of dross.

Bad day but your first post on here should be more positive 😄

they were laughing at us on talksport with what we paid for Skipp. At first i thought he was a Robbie Savage type player, a scrapper if you will, but he doesn't put the running in anymore, so now i just scratch my head as to what we saw in him to pay that money. You have to question how these decisions are made, I bet you could pick a number of championship players who'd have suited us more for cheaper transfer

I thought he’d looked ok coming on as a sub last two games 

His pass to bdcr last Sunday sort of means he can pass a ball. He’s made a couple of last ditch tackles in both those games too. 

 

i didn’t see todays game so can’t comment but if I was in a two with hamza I might be struggling ….

 

[BenTheFox]

We have some decent players but my God, we have so many players that are miles away from being at the standard of football that we're playing at. It's embarrassing that the likes of Ward, Choudhury, Kasey, Faes and Thomas are anywhere near a premier league football team in 2024. Many others that the jury is still out on. 

[majaco]

I'm watching the highlights.   It looks like Newcastle are playing a veterans' team,

 

We look pedestrian 

[Globalfox]

Our fullback positioning and play has been diabolical all season and cost us again today. Kristian den is no where near the players he should be covering. Yes part of that is the player in front of them neither mcateer or Madvadidi worked or tracked enough. Justin and Choudray are both constant cowards constantly turning their back on shots man up for gods sake. The whole team today was totally disorganized and lacking in work rate. You do not mind losing but there must be effort and it was completely absent today.. RVN does not escape leaving Buonanotto out big error.

[majaco]

And the not sent off player scores.  Giving Ward a first touch of the ball.

He retrieved it from the net well

[majaco]

We need pace at the back

Worth probably similar to Winks, 8-10M. Rudkin the worldclass negotiator pays three times more.

[RonnieTodger]

Unacceptable to play like that at this level. It’s just so easy for other teams to exploit.

 

No attacking threat but what’s worse is there’s nothing to keep it tight at the back.

 

Wimbledon went to Newcastle and made it much, much harder than we did.

TBF you can’t lay everything about this defeat on Ward.  But we will NEVER be competitive in a match when he plays.

 

I thought the idea was to put the opposition under a bit of pressure once you go behind 

 

Over this and the West Ham game we have been conceding a shot every three minutes ! 

[sm1]

Just watched the highlights on MoTD. I though Hamza was rubbish 1st time out, but having watched the goals again, he was fuching atrocious. Loss the ball and then just stood on the spot as Newcastle attacked. The one thing I liked about him was commitment, but today he was plain lazy.
