having a petrovic go on loan, having Chalobah out of the team is poor decision making by maresca.

nkunku needs to be sold

Enzo Maresca should never gathered this B team to play for in FA Cup where we could face likely serious team like Newcastle West Ham etc.

These team B is only good against Ononia and Noah FC.

Disasi and Badiashile are part of the team that sacked Potter, Lampard and Pochetino.

João Felix sacked Lampard.

Keep playing these so called Team B in conference league or against league 2 or championship side. Whenever we are going up against any EPL side in cup games, Team A must play else we are gonna exit all competition this season

Omoluabi16:
We need to start questioning maresca low-key. He came in like he had all the solutions, banishing player x y and z. The same players who made the team tick especially the last two months are still the same players running things. Has he really improved the team?

Playing gusto at Lb in the presence of cucu and veiga made me starting doubting maresca last Sunday and today has proved he is making same mistakes that got pochettino sacked!!!!

Why on earth did we sell Gallagher for Felix,like why did it happened?

Singapore1:
we should never buy player with no define role again. nkunku and felix ... too weak as a striker .. lack vision as a 10

Utility players in the dippest potopoto😂😂😂😂

fredoooooo:
Make Man u just score all their goals today and be barren on Sunday

Amen

BlueMann:

We got triple shit players from Monaco. Scam d'or should be created for monaco

Yesterday performance just prove why most of the players you all are clamouring to be fielded into the team A deserved being in team B instead. And Maresca, ensure he doesn't not bring Palmer for Felix to justify his point. So, on to the next!

Emaprince:
I have seen a few guys call8ng for Vega imclusion in some games...I feel like slapping them seriously.

I have watched this guy and wondered how he got to chelsea. Who ever signed him is a BIG ediot.

That guy is just tall for nothing...he doesnt even make use of his height and strength..just empty all around.

u just nailed it, the guy is playing like we are 6 goals up, no urgency, no awareness of his surroundings, and na backward passing always.

That was very stupid from maresca. You have to respect every competition. This is Newcastle, a team seeking revenge then you field a completely different team.

It now looks like if there is no palmer or he is off form we can't do anything. No be this competition pep first use win trophy for england? He had better not make this mistake again.

Ten Haag has set the bar so high ....if slot,maresca and amorim no win trophy this season,they will be on fraud watch.....

The major mistake yesterday was starting veiga in midfield. Even if Maresca wanted to play with his cup 11 , hall should be partnering Enzo in midfield and a winger should have started. Veiga was taking negative touches in the middle and playing into new castles trap and hall was cutting into the middle , living the right flank wide open.

Another argument I see here is about gusto and James starting together. I doubt we will see James and cucurella starting together anytime soon until James can prove his body is ready to take the demands of playing as an inverted full back or a box crashing full back.

Inverting cucurella now in the same starting eleven will mean having a back 3 of Levi Fofana and James, which leaves Fofana as the CCB and Fofana is not the best of passers.

Well, i don't mind we exit all other competitions in order to make top 4. We must play UCL football next season as that's where we belong and not be flexing muscles on all these nonsense Conference league and Carabao.

Ike gwuru. All this over emotional fans, like say na dem dy bring money wey club dy use pay salary.

e no go better for Felix
Football or no football
No peace for the wicked

At least Mudryk continues to impress. Was robbed of a couple of assists yesterday. And that Tosin pass for Felix was just beautiful. Our defenders will be crucial in cutting through low blocks.

Unfortunately for Sanchez haters, I don't think Jorgensen is dethroning him anytime soon.

Not really mad at the result anymore.

Cucurella is our best inverted full-back, and I don’t understand why Maresca doesn’t trust him yet. He played that role exceptionally well towards the end of last season. Cucu has a better passing range, more stamina, and superior defensive abilities compared to Gusto. Our strongest defensive lineup right now is Cucurella, Fofana, Levi, and James.

In fact, I can’t point to anything that Gusto does better than Cucurella.

By The Way. yesterday’s match further proved that Jackson is our second-best player this season. The only effective way to beat a high-press team like Newcastle is for defenders to pass directly to the number 10 or the striker. I lost count of how many times Felix and Nkunku lost possession due to a heavy touch, something Jackson handles with ease. Levi often plays those long, low passes to Palmer or Jackson to break the press, which frequently leads to counters. Jackson and Palmer are the reasons many high-line and high-press tactics fail against us.

We should also stop buying defensive players from France. Bakayoko, Badiashile, Disasi, and (arguably) Gusto are terrible defenders. Gusto has accumulated more red cards than any other defender in our squad since his arrival and has the highest number of bookings per game due to poor challenges. His main asset is his stamina.

I think he did that intentionally. It is as if he had been reading fans' posts about those players, "why Maresca did not bring this player on, and why he did not use that player" , and thought to himself, 'Today, I'll make all your wishes come true.' 🤣😁😆

This na proper head to head

I remember telling Timbros last season that our defence would improve as no sensible coach would start Badiashile when Colwill is fit.

Badiashile's brain can't process multiple things at the same time.

Kind reminder that Pochettino got to the final of the Carabao cup and lost to Klopp's Liverpool.

If Enzo Maresca does not finish above 6th, will you agree he did not do better than Pochettino?

Enzo Maresca's football is an upgrade to whatever rubbish poch served us. We are on a path to glory. You can't relate

Those four are the strongest defensive line up of we are playing a flat back four but we don't.

There are many reasons I think maresca has been playing with gusto and James but the most important reason he does that is because when we pair lavia and Caicedo, we don't invert one of the full back into the midfield, rather they play as a box crashing number 10.

I think if James physical condition improves , we might see that back four.
