Ya loh. Should have been an easy win considering Newcastle current form. Oscar is poor the whole game. Dunno why mou sub Mata instead of him.

I do believe his age is slowly but surely beginning to show.
Too patient is a pretty good description actually.many times we see our attacking players bursting forward when we dispossess them in midfield,but 99% of the time we play it safe,slow things down and pass it backwards.

P.s : what's with this bloody reluctance to cross as well??

well deserved win for Newcastle.. but please dont say november/december curse kicking in because its just 1st match in November. we will bounce back strongly i believe.. now onto champions league match against schalke at home, really hope we can win this and secure our spot in ucl knock out stage earlier

hahaha adventurous sgt. tp interception..header..positioning..marking semua dah almost at terry nye level..

if mourinho not flip out that mean he already knew the problem..bring us the next game..

November and December...always two months that we lose points.

if we are to play 433, we need a super strong striker (LUKAKU!) to hold up the ball and bring in the players. Too bad Anzhi offered us Eto and Roman nodded his head. We had to let Lukaku loaned out to gain more playing time.

It's just 1 defeat guys, and Newcastle is our bogey team. So yea, heads held high and looking forward to how we bounce back from this defeat.

Good result! later wil go office to dl the highlights to watch.

Ram Mikel pairing is more to solidarity.

Lamp Mikel pairing is more balance as Lamp's passing is usually nice.

for me this dude have been very neat and tidy and keep it compact in midfield...he deserve to play but due to his over defensive quality we should field him if our front 3 is too attacking minded...i notice why we won 3-0 at schalke is though schurrle, oscar and willian might not be so brilliant offensively, but they are incredibly hard working and quickly covered the space when we are defending and dont have the ball.....even in the jose comments he appreciate those qualities very much...

to me football is about 2 type of play..when you have the ball and when you dont have the ball....obviously the team he pick against schalke is very good in both those type....im not sure if hes gonna maintain that tonite or revert to much more offensive ppl tonite...

Pools on scoring spree.
