  1. But would bringing more in have disrupted the team and therefore stopped us winning the league? It's all guesswork at this point The following summer is arguably when we should have freshened stuff up more, but that whole opportunity was f***ed by covid
  2. And then won the league...?
  3. Interesting stats. Does it suggest Newcastle sitting deep against the big teams and hitting on the counter with Gordon's pace? That is unlikely to be how we play, so does that blunt some of his effectiveness?
  4. I agree, I'm just not sure who that is. There aren't exactly many obvious candidates who are better than what we have and are available
  5. We also had Henderson as a big bruiser, running around, playing out.
  6. I think Endo might well be - the sort of player that goes under the radar until you start looking at performance stats
  7. Earlier in the season we would have said that was our strongest line up, but we were so far off it tonight. Has happened a few times under Jurgen that our heads just completely go for a few weeks, shame it has happened at the worst possible time
  8. I wasn't moaning! Just a tongue in cheek (no doubt incorrect) prediction on what the outcome might be
  9. Hogan, Edwards, Ward etc etc etc
  10. Let's explore all the options, rule them out and then appoint the internal candidate. It's the fsg way
  11. Seems they just thought the other guy was a better manager, who played a better style of football. Hard to disagree with results By the way, Gary O'Neil who was the one sacked, also used to be at Portsmouth during the same period as Hughes and Edwards and was previously one of our youth coaches. Just a big game of mates really
  12. But if you want to challenge yourself against most of the world's best managers you need to come to England
  13. Need a full back if we are moving on Kostas, or Trent is going into midfield permanently. Otherwise don't see where the space is
  14. I agree it's rubbish and I feel for the fans of whichever club is bought and potentially loses its individual identity, however I don't think anyone is saying you need to follow whichever the other team is!
  15. Hughes has already appointed one basque manager...
  16. Not whilst the teams have a chance of meeting in Europe. I don't think anything will be officially announced until after a parade
  17. Yep. He slips, because he planted his foot on a players ankle. When the ankle gives way, poor unfortunate moises then slips. Surprised grav wasn't booked for endangering caicedo
  18. Might depend what he wanted from his career. If his ambition was financial security for himself and his family (as opposed to winning stuff), he has achieved that. It is really hard to judge the merits of any of those individual players in such a basket case of a club and team though
  19. He was great. Very similar in style to Ale Mac
  20. We'd want Ali in the champions league though. Kelleher presumably would want to play more, but he won't get occasions like today (or 2022) at some mid table PL club
  21. Gusto lucky to get 5! Not sure I've ever seen a 'pro' miscontrol a pass 3 times straight into touch
  22. Left footed centre back from Rangers
  23. Best midfielder on the pitch today, against the two most expensive of all time
