[Greg.]

So no Deano, O’Connell or Egan for wednesday..

Could be a cricket score

 

[Revolution]

Freeman PL debut. Good for him

 

[A Storm of Blades]

Now Wilder brings on Freeman??? Has he lost the plot?

 

[metalblade]

Don't matter how you dress it up this is awful and embarassing bye bye thoughts of Europe

 

[Bladesman98]

Could be a cricket score

Don’t want to be pessimistic about it but this performance isn’t encouraging

 

[west_yorks_blade]

Striker off for a defender now. Shutting up shop? Defending a big defeat?

 

[Revolution]

Unlucky that

mcBurnie has been a waste of space

 

[Bladesman98]

I felt like we may see a few of these scorelines when we came up but never expected us to ever be this hopeless

Basham 8

Everyone else 3

 

[FriethBlade]

Bashan is out most dangerous attacking player !

 

[bromtom]

Bash the only player today with any dignity left after today.

Shambolic.

 

[west_yorks_blade]

mcBurnie has been a waste of space

I know. But a very untufty like sub. Like he’s given up too.

 

[metalblade]

Who was it who said the football gods had been banished from a side looking good for Europe and bringing better players in to a squad now down to the bare bones and looking like it's their first game together ....................... what a shit shower.

 

[Need4speed]

Jags should have come on straight after Egan sending off

 

[BigBed]

Embarrassing how far we've fallen in 100days!???
I don't think we're going to Skeggy never mind Europe playing like this.

3????

No more than 2!

 

[Simanne67]

So we fall apart due to JOC missing. We look poor all over the pitch.
I fear the worse next season with this squad.

 

[Kev Gee]

I hope Egan gets fined a million weeks wages for his stupid booking.

Who the fuck are we going to play in our CB positions at old Trafford now?

Zivkovic looks lively though. Lots of movement off the ball.

 

[mablethorpe utd]

Now Wilder brings on Freeman??? Has he lost the plot?

Make it stop!

 

[Seth Rollins]

You don’t understand how football works do you?

Please enlighten me.

 

[CaptainMorgans]

I can't believe how bad Enda Stevens has been, Norwood too.

 

[TJB.]

Usually quite calm and reasonable about defeat but I'm fuming at this. Diabolical. Bash and Billy the only ones coming out with any real credit. Norwood has looked completely fucking uninterested and I hope Wilder rips him a new one for it. His actions for that third goal were offensive to watch.

 

[HillmortonBlade]

It’s been poor today. I thought we were marginally better than Villa overall. We have been amateurs today.

 

[BigBed]

Jags should have come on straight after Egan sending off

And Norwood n Mcburnie!

 

[United Aren't Back.]

We will ship 6 against Man U playing like this.

In fact we’d have been done 2 or 3 in both games if we’d have been playing anyone decent.

Or even if not...I know you wrote it earlier on etc

 

[Gimli]

3????

No more than 2!

True maybe I’m being generous based on goodwill earned during the season so far.

 

[Greg.]

Newcastle's goals scored in the previous 5 games:

1, 0, 0, 0, 0

And we let them score 3 against us

EDIT: Oh and Joelinton hasn't scored in the PL since August

 

[bromtom]

Can't blame JOC for this.

Robinson has been alright and has been making runs, it's the fact that every player but Bash and Lundstram have got 50p feet and no imagination.
