THE Newcastle United FC thread

[Stout]

The Gordon performances are mystifying. I think he is struggling with being asked to split time on the right side--maybe feels unappreciated. That's no excuse, but I do think it calls into question the wisdom of using him on the right side. All this could have been avoided if we got a true starting right wing in the window. Then we would have Gordon and Barnes competing for playing time with a super sub coming off the bench each game.

I think his head was turned by the Liverfool stuff.

I love what the club are doing to bolster the youth system. It was absolutely starved of talent under Ca$hley. It's just the progress that needs to be made with the senior squad that concerns me.

Now THAT is the kind of effort Newcastle needed to kick start their season. And as horrific as Gordon was last game and not trying, he more than made up for it today. I think agreeing that deal really settled him mentally.

It wasn't pretty, but cup wins don't need to be. Now let's beat Chelski.

Can't score a goal versus Everton = not a CL team or probably a European team. Only lost one game and already fading from the race. SMH
