Bournemouth vs Newcastle United

[Dr Gloom 21846]

we looked decent first 15-20. Since then it’s been all Bournemouth. Murphy and Longstaff both wasteful in possession. We need better quality in those positions. Joelinton having a stinker after winning the game last weekend. Need a rocket up the arse second half and early changes. Gordon looks a shadow of the player last season. Anonymous

Absolutely tragic watching Longstaff break with the ball and Isak practically handing him a written request for the through ball, and he just doesn't see it/can't do it.

Howe trying to coach himself out of the running for England. Well in Eddie, keep it up.

He can but stops dead, looks for Bruno and balloons the ball instead. Then falls over whenever I bump into the telly.

Murphy's balls from good positions have been shit as well.

No idea where this 442’s come from we lose all the benefit of real pace out wide with Gordon tucked in.

Have we actually been playing 442? Looks more like 451 at times

He won't do it but Barnes and Willock should be on here. If there's a time to shake things up...

We could do worse than Semenyo on our RW mind

 

Was thinking that myself, £65m bid?

Forgot about Willock's. He's a player that could actually change the game. 

[Holden McGroin 6542]

Izzy Christensen used the perfect word there: “passive”

 

That is what we’ve been like for 3 half’s so far this season. 

[Toonpack 9293]

I’d go back to 433, Miggy for Murphy, pace both wings, give Gordon 20 mins to get his head out of his arse, if not Barnes comes on.

 

if he’s sticking to 442, I’d get Willock on for Longstaff and play him left, Joe moving over.

[wykikitoon 19975]

Fucking Murphy man. Can't pass today at all.

[ewerk 30367]

Longstaff when he gets the ball in the box. 
 

 

[aimaad22 4145]

Longstaff in a great position there and decides to go down. Sheeeeesh

[wykikitoon 19975]

Longstaff man, fucking soft as shite

yeah Gordon to left of Isak

[wykikitoon 19975]

If that was Miggy he would be getting pelters man.

[Howmanheyman 32824]

Just get longstaff off, embarrassing that.

[Gemmill 44488]

Does Gordon think he's joined a walking football league? 

[OTF 7280]

Great block Burn, we need to shoe that determination elsewhere.

[wykikitoon 19975]

Bournemouth pressing well.

[Howmanheyman 32824]

Burn just saving the midfield there.

[Dougle 3322]

Shocking stuff here like

Not taking anyone on, when normally he's amongst our best at beating a man.

[wykikitoon 19975]

Howe needs to be making changes man.
