So we lost after 8 unbeaten but I have to admit the people who did not see this coming surprized me.....Bilic said he thought it strange that Newcastle were more up for it and going for the win more than us...but on a number of occasions this season we have started slow and need a kick up the bum at half time to get us going.. yesterday we could of easily gone in 4-0 down and were lucky to keep them to only 2 goals the whole match.....every player was very poor yesterday..... its not a told you so moment but I mentioned this in a thread earlier in the week and take no credit for getting it right I wished I was wrong but for some reason we just don't seem to get going early on.
now for something else it is clear Valencia cannot lead the line its not him it is not his kind of role and yes I am going to mention it but noble could of easily been subbed as yet another performance whilst not the worse we have seen many of this term.....I do not dislike him and I think he is a good prem player but no more than that...I understand this will upset some but I am not slagging him off I just see how ltd he is and again blowing my own trumpet I had mentioned being happy if we had got shelvey in to replace mark..... only one game but already the drive the passing ability and the shooting ability(although many way off yesterday)head and shoulders above noble....still we move on from this defeat and we have citeh and maybe the scousers in the cup(come on the grecians!)to come...we need to start faster in these matches or we could be in for more of what we saw yesterday.
Cant disagree with anything you say Bike
It was one of those games,weve had a great season..long may it continue!
To me it's a philosophical
To me it's a philosophical approach we need. Yes I forecast we would lose too. It gave me 40 extra points in the bbc predictor. Slaven basically ripped apart SAMs way and half his team. It has been a total revolution. But looking at things objectively there has been a hell of a lot done and still to do to make us where we want to be. Rome wasn't built in a day. Everything looks healthy, to me Slavs big work has to be the consistencey of performance. Ok we just finished a good unbeaten run but often we have started slow had long periods of poor play, or generally had poor games along with the quality. If we were more consistent there would be more points and teams like the Geordies will have no chance. We all have to realise there will be players Slav will want to replace for his own man but it can't be done overnight in one swoop. I'm sure his demands on new players would be enthusiasm, professionalism and desire. All these would help to improve consistentcy
hit the nail
on the head mate.....and 100% agree where we were last year to this is a huge difference which how many of us thought that could happen in such a short space of time.....work in progress indeed

Ok Spurs it's my opinion that currently based on form, no one who can really take nobles place and improve the situation much if at all. So my question to you is next season who would you realistically bring in to replace him bearing in mind a balanced midfield

Spurs I was just curious if you know some player who might slot in well there as it will have to be addressed at sometime after we sort out our full back and striker problems. I'm not to up on world players. More domestic
