Roberto Martinez discussion

[roydo]

We are capable of the spectacular (see the Cleverley goal),

Eh? Hardly spectacular!

 

[GwladysBlue]

A better manager would also have the oppositions goalkeeper not pulling off saves.

One win in five against absolutely woeful opposition.

 

[davek]

They have Butland though...he's going to be very hard to get past...massive difference with him and Howard.

I agree. He;s a big factor. I still fancy us strongly though. Stoke are very up and down in form.

 

[Goat]

Beg your pardon, I've just done the sums again. £18M.

Well there goes any ounce of credibility you had left.

Unreal, im utterly speechless how you would try and shift the blame for our defeat today on a made up net spend.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Everyone reasonable knows it too.

 

[chicoazul]

The utter no mark has bought players worth 74m since he joined the club, lets not cry poverty, Moyes left him a superb squad full of international quality.

Defo. Like Besic.

 

[Toffeelover]

Net spend of £19M mate.

The feller's working miracles here. Everyone reasonable knows it too.

Fine dave, just wish we could get rid of some of the deadwood and you know who.

I had some?

Would you say we have been poor in those games

It's not like last season where the results and the performances where lacking

Leicester are top of the league, Bournemouth on a role at the moment, Palace excellent away from home.

Don't get me wrong we should have and deserved to have won more but Norwich were the only woeful side we didn't beat

 

[Goat]

Defo. Like Besic.

Besic was scouted by Moyes.

 

[Darth Vader]

Hes spent 50m.........

Is that 50m with Lukaku

 

[steken1]

His decision making left a lot to be desired today. You can put that performance today down to playing a side who are starting to play, in poor conditions, but it doesn't change the fact that his subs almost killed us off.

One win in five against absolutely woeful opposition.

Against 5 of the most in form teams in the league

 

[Abraders]

Totally agree. Our football is excellent and far removed from how we used to play and still time for tweaks and improvement. There is not one Newcastle fan that can say we did not deserve that tonight.....there's probably a few Everton fans though. I am far happier with the performances than I expected and I concede we are dodgy at the back but I see light at the end of the tunnel. We are moving in the right direction.

Every newcastle fan on their forum thinks they deserved a point...
