Ominous for Ole

 

Man Utd having a board meeting

 

Can't have much to discuss

I think the first question will be “how much to get rid of him?”

I hope I'm quoting this statistic correctly...I think I am.

 

Arsenal have had 11 defeats by 4 or more goals in Premier League history. 6 of them have been at Anfield.

Apart from their (pre-Premier) league win there back in 19-oatcake, they must hate that place :lol:

Tavares looks like he's never played football before.

Seemed an odd choice with Tierney on the bench, unless Arteta felt he wouldn't be fresh enough

Bazzas right boot

Gave in and got sky, the first time in almost 20 years. 

 

The English games have been dull as **** so far. 

 

I team sitting in waiting in the other to score. 

Flat as ****. Yesterday the handbags between Klopp and Aterta was the most exciting thing to happen. 

 

Some of These teams spend £50m + on players and pay them 3 figure weekly salaries yet they just sit in and kick the ball away. 

 

First time I've watched any epl football for a while and it's a bit shite. 

 

Watched a bit of Luton v qpr on Friday that was far more engaging.

Good game now. 

Reguillon eventually gets a goal. And Conte seems to have noticed that Kane has only ever scored one free kick despite insisting on taking them.

The Emptihad living up to it's name

 

They should be selling out every match

Very touristy 

says someone who was at the game today! 
A lot of folk running late but was quite a fair amount of empty seats.

 

Atmosphere was very muted apart from the goals. A couple of songs but for a team doing as well as City is disappointing.

 

on the whole however the entire Etihad set up is brilliant. Fantastic stadium

and even the u23/woman’s ground puts 80% of Scottish grounds to shame. Teams were fairly efficient and it was easy getting in and out.

 

weirdly though almost all concession stands were closed during the game and reopened at half time.

although not me people I was with wanted a scarf and the club stores only had one option. And it was a fairly poor one at that.

What part of the ground we're you at yesterday.

I was in South Stand 3rd tier.The atmosphere was good for an hour.

Just think it does not travel well other parts of the ground.

Everton fans were very quiet.They are usually one of the best at the Etihad.

Maybe Rafa's style of football had something to do with it.

Weird thing though most home teams struggle for atmosphere down there.

City away support is a far better day out for atmosphere.

Fans leaving before the game finished was shocking yesterday as well.

Good to see you you enjoyed the set up.

The Etihad is easily one of the best stadiums in the UK.

Even when they got on top second half. 

It’s a massive stadium to get a constant atmosphere going in. Lots of noise in the last 15 though. The old White Hart Lane had a cracking atmosphere.

Been there twice.Came to life after they went in front twice.Lack of songs doesn't help.

Arsenal and Chelsea I have never seen a good atmosphere from home fans while there.

West Ham comes across as good on tv but at the ground it is poor.

Upton Park was great all the time I was there,Loftus Road as well.

Fraser and Ritchie playing as wing-backs in Eddie Howes' 3-4-3 formation today.    I hope they excel in their roles consistently, so they can give Steve Clarke something to think about for picking players.

Got to feel for Graham Potter. Has Brighton playing really well. Just missed a load of chances first half and hit woodwork 3 times. 

 

0-0. Trossard and Bissouma could fund them for years if they want to cash in.

Wouldn't have Ritchie or Fraser anywhere near squad. Ritchie opted out when times hard and Fraser pretended to be injured this last qualifiers, and immediately went back training with Newcastle.

They can both gtf.

A little while ago Newcastle's next games at home against Norwich and Burnley were seen as key to getting going. 

 

But Norwich and Burnley are playing quite well.

Burnley - Spurs 2pm match cancelled. A bit of a pisser if you’ve travelled up from London for the game. Still, on the bright side Burnley is a lovely place with lots of things to do if you’re at a loose end.

Yes thanks to the Germans bombing it and doing £30M worth of improvements.

Yeah I suppose both Porteous and Mcginn deserve to be ahead of them 🤔

 

Ritchie has had continues injury problems the last 2 years at Newcastle. 

 

And Fraser has had injury problems too. 

 

But then again you wouldn't know that soo.....

Ritchie decides a few years ago to stop playing for Scotland. 

 

Maybe you didn't know that.

Spot on, but according to some they aren't good enough.

Did you see Ritchie for Arsenal's 2nd? 😂

I did that i also seen Souttar this week and last week. 

 

Newcastle are in a bad place. 

 

But will improve under Howe.

Leeds are terrible.

Lack real squad depth still have 4 first team players missing. 

 

Once full team back will be okay, need to strengthen in January but. 

 

They rely on Bamford a lot, scored 17 last season for them and got called up for England.
