Match Thread Newcastle United v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Bob Latchford]

crucial corner, must not let the keeper claim under any circumstances, continues to float it in and let keeper throw his cap on it

our skipper.....

 

[Amw79]

Poor from Carlo today, for me. Wrong starting line up, wrong subs. Players looking unmotivated.

 

[Marius57]

At end of day, 6 of our first 11 weren't on the pitch. Pickford, coleman, digne, Holgate, richie and James. All of them play and we walk it. (Pickford is arguable).

We are still 2nd. We are only 7 games in. Poor tactically today but clearly we have issues with squad depth but Carlo knows what he is doing more than we do. Take it on the chin as a bad day and move on.

4 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses is a good return from 7 games.

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Jjk, mina, gomes, sig, just not good enough

 

[Dublin blue 75]

Why is it the players who always score against us, always score... regardless of the club they play for. Fraser today.

 

[Moggers]

Not overly concerned about that.

a good reality check

some players in the squad that started the season as “maybes” or not priority to change will be moving themselves towards the exit

in the meantime we will be up and down, more down than up when 4 of our main players are out.

Spot on mate

 

[kenada_blue]

Don’t know what you expect him to do! He was swinging his leg and another player ran into it!

Oh I get it. Super soft of a peno. But it was still lazy, he didn't attack the ball

 

[sir_christoffee]

Kenny did ok but doesn't really offer anything going forward. Boy have we missed Holgate. Soon as the first teamers start to come back we should pick it up again. What's concerning is we don't have that extra bit of quality on the bench. Should of pushed the boat out for Zaha.

 

[PhilEFC]

You could tell as soon as we started how that game would pan out.

No pace and a midfield that Schneiderlin wouldn’t look out of place in.

 

[ToffeeTim]

The only good thing about lockdown was these tossers ruining my mood.

I was stupid enough to think This start might actually mean something but they are the same useless players we had last year. They let us down every time.

 

[Blue Roo]

Godfrey for Mina
Olsen for Pickford
Digne back in
Delph for Gomes
Bernard or Gordon for Gomes
Carlo sorting the wheat from the chaff.
James and Richarlison to come back.
Isco!
It'll be alright lads.

 

[riddick]

This is now arguably three poor matches in a row. I know he's meant to be infallible but Carlo better figure this out because this is exactly what he's getting paid to do. Terrible all around terrible terrible terrible

 

[jaycee]

After that 1st half you could see the jawdees offered no real threat,we needed to add a little bit of pace/width and we would have won comfortably,I'm afraid Carlo got that wrong today

 

[Methuselah]

On BBC live text, Newcastle supporter says 'penalty as soft as a fluffy cushion'. The footballer's on there all say 'never a penalty'. Meanwhile, Liverpool get their usual penalty for a Salah dive.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Second string just not good enough...
