Newcastle United must now head to Brentford knowing failure to better Man United's result could end up in a total collapse in their bid for Europe. #nufc #mufc
Hopefully Eddie Howe takes the England job and does one because our owners are definitely not ruthless enough it seems. Playing a Championship midfield and poor goalkeeper when we had better options on the bench was absolutely criminal to me. Time to go Eddie Howe! 👋👋
How can we bottle such an important match Lee we will probably not get a better chance than that but the Gordon penalty decision was a disgrace if we don’t get European football it’s our own fault they should be ashamed of themselves
Big anticlimax. Why is it when we are on the cusp of something good we bottle it.? Three very soft goals badly defended and keeper should have saved at least one . Pope needs come in if he's fit . Only standouts were Bruno and Hall.😢
Lack of squad depth showing us up there. 5 or 6 of that team are top quality. The others aren't quite good enough. Either not there yet like Anderson or end of career like Trips. Hope we buy well this Summer.
I can't say if we had that penalty we would have won, or even drawn because nobody knows how Man Utd would have reacted to going a goal behind. But the fact that VAR teams get these decisions wrong, week in and week out, yes sometimes in our favour and sometimes against us, is just plain wrong. If you're 4-0 up and don't get a penalty it might not be the end of the world. But last night was a huge game for both teams and mistakes like this should not be happening. The first step is to stop using refs within the VAR team, too many mates working together for me. They should be two totally independent bodies. There should also be a VAR report after every game explaining every major decision. What did they see in that tackle, how did they see it and which rule did they use to support their decision?
The fact is, we are not as good as many of our deluded fans think we are. Too many Championship players in the squad, with a manager who has fallen short, and once again has shown that he is not the man to take us to the next step. Hopefully he will be England manager by th3 end of the summer. As for Isai and Bruno, at least one of the will leave, they both need CL football, not the Mickey Mouse Conference cup.
ffp concerns aside... I'd rather have no europe than bother with the conference league... we might get a decent run at the domestic competitions and fewer injuries if we don't have a european distraction next season...
We’re absolute bottles jobs this season. We can’t win the big games that matter. AC Milan, Chelsea in the Carbao cup. This game. I honestly hope we fail to beat Brentford. Let’s be honest that Europa Conference League is a joke. Write off season.
If we cabt beat a shit man utd team ...we dont desever euro football next season.....bruno and issak were poor...100 million they what for each of these players...... over rated ...longstaffe needs to go to
