The thing is Newcastle are less consistent than us, so you can see where Arteta is trying to be better. It's just he has maybe gone a little too conservative this season compared to last.
I mean this season the teams they have dropped points against are City, Liverpool and Brighton so they aren't unreasonable games to lose. We'll see how we fare in those fixtures as well. Newcastle season start has been much harder then ours so far as well.
we could've done with a doku type signing. keep jesus at 9, so he can find a rhythm as a striker. I feel like him bouncing around positions doesn't help his form
Two ends of the spectrum
Clrnc tbf to Brentan how many of those games was he managing Celtic in?
Qwiss 8 if I'm not wrong. But with Liverpool and Leicester as well he managed a total of 2 wins? Seems like a very poor record
Clrnc That is poor. I forgot he was in Europe with Liverpool.
I suspect his record with Liverpool would probably have been better if they hadn't sold Suarez. They fell off a cliff after that.
Newcastle’s team of giants are so hard to play against
Pep Guardiola has criticised the Wankdorf Stadion’s artificial surface
Call me childish, but …
Burnwinter they're taking the piss with that. the team that plays in wankdorf stadium is young boys. come the fuck on.
Also: United beat Copenhagen 1–0 at Old Trafford and are to be hailed for their fighting spirit, apparently … fucking low standards for some these days.
Burnwinter Yea it's funny. We play relatively poorly and win to top the group, away to a club in La Liga, and they scrape a 1-0 at home to a Danish side by the skin of their teeth, landing squarely in 3rd place out of 4. Media narrative goes all in on their resilience.
Just seen their line up. Good lord, what on earth have Dortmund done with all the money they’ve gotten over the years?
Why has everyone in Europe suddenly forgotten how to build a good team?
Why does every team play suicide-ball against Newcastle?
Mbappe is just so dangerous.
Isak might be out of our match. Good news.
Newcastle look abit lost without him and Tonali
Just as I type this Wilson miss an absolute sitter
Another seemingly serious injury for Newcastle. Murphy this time lasting 2 mins before going off.
Their insanely high energy game is bound to result in injury, even with the PEDs.
