Newcastle United Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2014/15

Vurnon San Benito

Looking forward to tomorrow, see what our response is like. Encouraged by the comments of Pardew advising us to keep possession - easier said than done, but right attitude.

It's typical that we'd have to play United at Old Trafford, the gameweek after Everton ended a historic wait for a victory there! :pac:

Then again, why can't we? NO Rooney, and RVP doubtful.

Victory would be incredible, but I'm not holding my breath! Fair refereeing would be a start...

I'd say he's referring to that cluster **** by Howard Webb in our last game against Swansea, more so than the Old Trafford syndrome..

Loosing, brings on 3 defenders
Winning brings.on 3 strikers

*injury stopped the latter. Cisse wa about to come on

BArra

hopefully debuchy only has something minor with his injury

Moneymaker

UNBELIEVABLE JEFF!!!

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

TaosHum

Great result that. Players worked very hard and were the better in possession.

I don't care about United going through a bad spell, to win a Old Trafford is huge. That's how good this team can be.

BetterCallSaul

Raging I missed it but I don't think I've had a longer 3 minutes staring at my phone in my life!! :cool::cool::cool::cool:

What a start to the weekend!

Moneymaker

So happy right now, fully deserved it too.

Moneymaker

Oh and fair play to Sian Massey. Made the right call when countless other linesman have lacked the courage to do it. Good on her.

Limerick Dude

Although we didn't play unbelieveably well, there are some good positives out of that game.

Debuchy looks like one of the best right back in the league, Ben Arfa was great when he came on; tracked back and held the ball up extremely well.

Tiote was superb also.

Cant forget a much needed clean sheet!

Lets just hope Swansea was a minor glitch and we can push on and pick up a decent haul of points over the christmas period.

Yep, was a scrappy victory. Amazing that it took so long to di it there, we have had much better teams and much better performances (like last year) and invariably lost!

Delighted all the same, monkey off our backs

Vurnon San Benito

Absolutely over the moon.

Some fantastic passing football on display, what a performance from our midfield. Anita quality again, as was Tioté, Moussa and Yohan.

Mike Williamson outstanding, OUTSTANDING! Santon pretty faultless, Debuchy likewise, Coloccini his usual cool, classy self.

Rémy put a great shift in, as did Ben Arfa when he came on - Shola played his part by winding down the clock as well.

I actually can't fault any of their performances! :pac:

Delighted, delighted, delighted!

What has been put into williamsons cornflakes? He used be a complete liability, but has turned it around with more than one consistent performance

Did someone mention on here (could have been on radio) that Pardew admitted he got it completely wrong tactically against Swansea?

If so then I would be pleased he said that. Good to admit your mistakes and learn from them.

Pretty much yeah, and he said the entire game was a kick in the backside for the entire team.

Good luck! That's a couple of minutes from my apartment

TaosHum

Cardiff at home. at least its not Brighton

Morpork

They're staying in the Marker hotel.
Go stalk them lads.

M5

NUFC to offer printed media paid Bronze, Silver and Gold packages for interviews with players and staff. Also looking for a "Media Partner"

I'm guessing T&C's would include a positive aspect on all stories!

BArra

what skill from anita at 40:00, jaysus :eek:

Unreal. Should have had a shot probably.

M5

Southampton looking much more dangerous this time half. Closing much more and pushed up high

BArra

yup need a change, on comes cisse

Moneymaker

Lallana would look very good in Black and White.

M5

And there is the warning. ...

Moneymaker

Jesus, what a goal that'd been. Very lucky to survive that.

Moneymaker

How has Cork gone 60 mins until a card? Been fouling all day.

Moneymaker

And there it is....

M5

Balls, all from a hopeful punt forward by Santon!

M5

Momentum with Southampton now, gona be hard to get a point

Moneymaker

It's the same "retreat 20 yards and try and defend" tactic yet again.

Cisse on and not Ben Arfa is odd too.

M5

Remy lad! Ah come on

Moneymaker

Oh for gods sake...........

We're gonna regret that.

M5

Let's have a performance hba

M5

Jasis. Get anita off

BArra

haidara coming on, at least its not obertan!!

M5

10 mins lads. Much better

M5

Ref being kind to Southampton defenders. Every 50 50 going to the defense

M5

Lino having a laugh too

Moneymaker

Did they clone the officials from the City/Arsenal game? Hopeless.

Moneymaker

Hit it first time ffs!

M5

Da fun?

M5

Lol at the ref. 10 out of 10 for the dive

BArra

f*ck sake ben arfa play the ball

Moneymaker

I wonder what Southamptons foul count has been today.

M5

Stupid tactic of retreating when in control costs us again.

That said we had the chances to win this. Remy with a couple of unbelievable misses
