Anywhere.
Anywhere.
Lewis Miley said he was hoping to be fit for the game in Barcelona ๐ค
Think it's only because he's quick.
It's not coincidence that it happens every single time we play one of the "elite" teams.
This is what the Champions League is these days. Corrupt as fuck. They're never letting little old Newcastle beat a PSG or a Barcelona.
Almost wrote this mid-game but didn't want to anger people ๐
At least twice, Osula ran in behind, through on goal and if it's Isak it's an easy finish both times. 2-0 up at a minimum.
Osula runs wide, miscontrols, makes the wrong decision, doesn't even test the keeper.
If it's any consolation to anyone, I don't think a 1-0 lead would have been enough either.
Fine. I don't agree. Tonali's a lot softer. Book them both or neither. No consistency.
Exactly
Only fair that I agree with this.
One summer signing actually beginning to justify the fee paid for him.
He just needs to learn not to pass the ball to Elanga if he wants us to keep possession.
Yamal's was the clearest booking of the whole night. Cynically blocked Hall off. It's a yellow for any Newcastle player.
On both occasions, the officials have been determined not to allow PSG to lose.
Think we'll see the same at Barcelona next week.
I couldn't tell you who was in their line-up except the little cunt Yamal who should have been booked but was never going to be because UEFA don't want their starboy ruled out of the second leg.
Woltemade and Wissa being sold for a loss this summer if tonight's team selection is anything to go by.
Yes the ref was shit. They all are. They're all fucking corrupt. We've seen it over and over again, PSG the prime example. It's why we need to be more intelligent. Can't concede a penalty if you've cleared the ball down the other end of the pitch.
I think one thing we can guarantee is that we're losing at Chelsea at the weekend.
Whistle should have gone but you've still got to defend. Can't keep conceding goals in the last minutes then saying "But there was too much injury time!" because what does that get you at the end of the season? Fuck all.
Point being, we'd hardly given them a sniff from open play all game. Have to keep that concentration and application until the final whistle. How many times this season have we conceded in injury time? Fucking loads. Olmo did nothing all game but we allow him to do so right at the death.
Yes but we have to play to the whistle. Can't keep shitting the bed when there's an extra minute of injury time.
If we're 1-0 up in the 90th minute at the Nou Camp, the same will happen again.
Just like PSG.
The officials won't let them lose.
No issue with the approach. Just Thiaw falling asleep and forgetting how to defend.
"Newcastle have missed a huge opportunity"
The tagline of this whole fucking season.
Sorry but Thiaw needs to not dangle a fucking lazy leg. Yes the refs are cunts but you can't say "Well the 4 minutes added time are up so I'll stop concentrating now."
Even if we were to play well enough at the Nou Camp to win, do you really think the officials would let it happen? Fucking no chance.
Nope. Both to blame. Can't just stop defending at the death. We've done it all season.
We've had this debate before. Have to play to the whistle. Can't just stop defending because the game *should* be over. We've done it time and time again this season.
1-0 wouldn't have been enough either tbf but we've no chance now.
We'll lose by a couple at their place.
Yes it's Barcelona. But how many injury time goals conceded this season? How many points dropped from winning positions? It's absolutely endemic. #nufc
Will there ever be a day when we don't shoot ourselves in the foot.
That's us done now. Threw away a win. We don't win at the Nou Camp.
Told you. #nufc
