    I reckon Bayern have a better chance against Real than City.

  5. LLB Part Deux

    Tactics 100% Angeball, or adapt during the game? Which are you?

    Newcastle absolutely played the low block against us, doubling up on Son because he can't play with his back to goal and then playing it direct. They did it so many times it might not have felt like they were sitting back mind... We had 73% possession!

    Tactics 100% Angeball, or adapt during the game? Which are you?

    Lets see who we've lost against: Wolves x 2 (sat back) Villa (sat back) West Ham (sat back) Brighton Fulham (sat back) Man City Chelsea Not to mention only just scraping 1 goal wins or draws against other defensive clubs - like the 2 goals in injury time against Sheffield Utd.

    If only he'd watched us vs. Newcastle before the game we might have won.

    Tactics 100% Angeball, or adapt during the game? Which are you?

    Adapt during the game? Maybe - but often it doesn't work. You just encourage the other team. Adapt to your opponent? Definitely. That is the problem so far with Angeball - it's good against teams who are relatively open, or even attacking. It absolutely sucks against teams who sit back and wait...

    Eh, I think I'd prefer the draw tbh. I will of course be editing this later if the scum win the title with that draw.

    Management Ange Postecoglou

    Ange had a shocker today. Pure undiluted arrogance to think he didn't need to watch our previous games against Toon to learn from those mistakes. First time this season I've been genuinely angry with him. Any idiot could have foreseen that they would run a low block and just pick us off with...

    Next time maybe be less arrogant mate. https://www.skysports.com/football/video/30998/13113554/ange-postecoglou-no-reason-to-re-watch-last-year-s-newcastle-defeat

    Match Newcastle United vs Tottenham Hotspur. Sat 13th April. 12:30pm KO

    He simply can't hold the ball up, which means playing into him on a high line means defenders can block his turn and switch possession. Saw it repeatedly against Fulham and today.

    Match Newcastle United vs Tottenham Hotspur. Sat 13th April. 12:30pm KO

    Thing is, this could easily have been 5 by now. Probably should have been. Ange needs to have a serious look at whether just playing the same tactic every single week is viable in the Premier League because some bang average teams are figuring it out pretty easily.

    Match Newcastle United vs Tottenham Hotspur. Sat 13th April. 12:30pm KO

    I don't think I've been angrier with any performance this season. Utterly, utterly predictable outcome to a fucking stupid gameplan. If doesn't matter if players are putting in a shift or not if all you need to do is sit deep and bang in long passes over the top. I could have given this...

    Match Newcastle United vs Tottenham Hotspur. Sat 13th April. 12:30pm KO

    Idiot tactics. Fucking moronic. How many times do we need to concede from exactly the same tactic? Before the match they asked Ange if he'd watched previous Spurs vs Newcastle defeats and he said "no, because it isn't relevant". Dumb words being made to look worse now.

    Match Newcastle United vs Tottenham Hotspur. Sat 13th April. 12:30pm KO

    You'd think that we'd have learned by now that playing high and letting Newcastle hit you on the break doesn't end well.

    Match Newcastle United vs Tottenham Hotspur. Sat 13th April. 12:30pm KO

    Obviously a bit premature compared to Van Dijk but a couple of shit moments doesn't change the fact that he's been excellent all season.

    VDV just had his worst two moments in a Spurs shirt within 3 minutes.
