samjp26 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Westwood has incredible footballing ability. Like seriously, I cannot wait for him to have Sanchez behind him so he can do it without worrying. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) Overall not bad, the main thing of note is that our defence looks confident and assured. Something we have not seen for a while. It's still early days of course but if we can keep everyone fit our defence will improve. We're missing Benteke a bit but overall we look competent going forward. Edited August 23, 2014 by PompeyVillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 both full backs look good going forward, no cutting edge in the box though. weimann and gabby are poor are getting in good positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Sanchez and Cole on for Richardson and Gabby please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Deceptively, the team doesn't look too different to last season's, but Cissokho, Hutton, Senderos, Richardson and Zog are all improvements on the players they've replaced (except for Tekkers, of course).

sonic_bouma Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Couldn't believe Weimann didn't see the pass and tried a shot from 30 yards, real schoolboy stuff that. But he works hard and he's a natural finisher though. With 15 goals in 83 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il_serpente Posted August 23, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted August 23, 2014 Weimann's ok at getting in good positions. The problem is when he has the ball and is not yet in a good position... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KitKat Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Thought we were going to struggle with how well Newcastle kept the ball in the opening 10 minutes (think we were on about 20% possession), but again we've grown in to the game nicely and it's been very even. Not been overly tested but they had one chance which they should've done a lot better with (Cabella I think?). Wouldn't change anything @ HT but would look to change our attack if we continue to struggle. I don't actually think Gabby or Andi have been too bad, we've just not had the kind of clear cut chance you would expect (or rather hope) them to put away. Gabby has led the line well.

Like seriously, I cannot wait for him to have Sanchez behind him so he can do it without worrying. Not a big fan but he's been excellent. I reckon he looks stronger for definite, especially being as he has been up against Sissoko a few times and not dropped to the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicho Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Think Richardson has been alright, he's doing a job of just being In space that Newcastle want to use. Won't sub at half time but cole and bent for Weimann and gabby at around 65 and Sanchez for Richardson at 75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he works hard and he's a natural finisher though. With 15 goals in 83 games. I do appreciate his hard work though in all fairness, we wouldn't have had half the space so far in this game if it wasn't for the mercurial talents of Newcastle leaving plenty of space in behind and not tracking back. Cabella could score a screamer or set one up in the 2nd half, but against better teams they'll be exposed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVTuco Posted August 23, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted August 23, 2014 Many have said they think Richardson's been poor, but I think he's one of the reasons for our better look. He is in the right place, and plays with calmness. He's not very visible, but I like him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
