Bit early to write him off! (although I agree he isn't playing well vs Newcastle but not many of our team are) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a knackered 49 year old and I bet so could score more a season than Davis Your goals per minute ratio is actually drastically better than KD’s... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciggiesnbeer Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Luis, McGinn. Barkley is the only midfield 3 we have played this season which has dominated opponents (as far as i can recall). So maybe thats what is needed? Dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which obviously would improve both his and the team’s performance I doubt the coaching team told him to not get involved with anything tbf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 A cagey affair, not nearly as bad as some suggest, I feel. A goal would make such a difference to everyone's confidence. They've gotten themselves into some good positions but just not quite there with the energy levels to capitalise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, we're 'moaning' that he's not doing anything! If the instructions from the coaching staff are to never seek to create chances, and generally let the game pass you by, then I seriously question the coaches 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 It’d be nice to see a reaction wouldn’t it? Like DS had got into them at half time: or would that just stuff whatever confidence they had left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted March 12, 2021 Moderator Share Posted March 12, 2021 I don't think the problem is tactical - we're getting loads of the ball in the opposition's final third, to an extent that's where the managers responsibility passes to players - the managers job is to create situations where they'll have the ball in threatening positions, the players have to take some responsibility to do something with it from there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just can't see a game plan lately, it's just like Smith's playing Bruceball every game waiting for Grealish come back. European places are still available to us, although we look like a team that's not interested in it. I think if we play at maximum we are a European place team but if we drop off just a bit we are just a mid table team, we don’t have any give unlike other teams.

Tom13 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 More Ramsey plays the more he'll grow and naturally want to take more responsibility. Give him time ffs. He has ability, and calmness on the ball. McGinn could learn a thing or two from him about that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ender4 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Just bring on Grealish with no legs. He’ll still make the magic happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Bare in mind. Newcastle are without Wilson, Almiron and Maximin. Literally their 3 best players. Not winning here would be a disgrace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
