Match Thread Newcastle 2-3 Everton. Sat Feb 28 . 3pm

Hows it been?

Even. A few shots from distance for each team but no real threat yet.

 

[Vagner Love]

McNeil completely off pace as predicted

Ive thought this for some time but....Ndiaye mis likely at his best in the middle. He doesnt have the ideal speed for a wide player. But his best skill is his dribbling, and his ability to go right past a player is invaluable in the middle behind the striker. He seems to be really showing it this match.

There's a definate desperation from certain commentators and pundits for Newcastle to be part of the big boys. Nick Pope is world class aparantly

Yes

 

[Drico]

Great run from Ndiaye but poor ball. That's why he plays for us. He's just missing that last bit of quality.

Yes, that's my take on him too. Nimble feet, exciting at times, takes a risk, but lacks the final ball far too often. His assist stats are, apparently, notoriously poor. He's good to watch when on it, but I wouldn't be against accepting a good bid for him.

 

[Mr PEN86]

Playing really well here. Wish Ndiaye would shoot more. Cut in and bend it far post
