MackHaakon Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) They got the game where they wanted it and got the crowd into it. We're not playing great but neither are Saudi-Arabia. It's an ugly little game so far, with lots of energy. It's just absolutely terrible to lose both Mings and Buendia probably for the season. It just reduces our quality and chances in every competition. Edited August 12, 2023 by MackHaakon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigo Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 What happened to Mings has put a dampener on this whole game for me, whatever happens. I'm absolutely gutted for him. In terms of the game itself, I don't like getting on players' backs but this half has just continued to affirm that Bailey isn't good enough outside of isolated moments and we still need a right back. For that second goal Cash is again breaking the offside line by standing two yards behind it and playing everyone on. He's a decent player but not at the level we want to be at, and feels like one of VERY few players that haven't kicked on under Emery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teilmans on in front of doug and kamara Diaby on the left Can't honestly think of one positive from Bailey today, very poor performance, lacking pace, energy, composure , skill and tactical positioning. Bailey is shit. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buendia, Mings, Moreno, Ramsey.... we're short-staffed in this team right now. We’re gonna have to splash the cash… forget about January… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Quite a lot of over reaction on here against one of the best teams in the league away from home. It’s not that bad. My main take homes is I’m devastated about Mings and we seem to be losing our heads a lot. Just don’t look ready but we haven’t been awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mings injury doesn't look good and I still don't understand offside. The ref gave offside against Villa for exactly the same scenario that VAR allowed their 2nd goal for. It appears they don't know the offside rule either Burn fouls Cash in the build up and nothing given. Digne gets a bizarre offside call and the Geordies get a foul from a set piece similar to what happened to Cash. Not even a VAR replay for Joelinton taking out Dougie's legs for the pen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Digne has put some good deliveries in. And Cash is having an effect, it's just a negative one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted August 12, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 12, 2023 I wish they'd stop this nonsense of doing half time pitchside and just get into a studio. I can't hear a bloody word they're saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it, going on how he's played today, Cash would have probably stuck it in his own net, he's been absolutely abysmal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
