Missed chances cost Newcastle United against Everton | TF Reacts

[@persononyoutube461]

WE’VE GOT OSULA!!!!! Wtf is the point of getting him and then pretending we don’t have a striker in the squad?

[@chrisjames2109]

Hall is doing well at left back now, I think most will agree. He was kept back, worked at on the training ground, and look how he's improved. Obviously Eddie and the coaching staff feel the same about Osula.

[@persononyoutube461]

@@chrisjames2109 That’s great and all, but we have no one else in that position.

[@earthlingcarl3179]

Criminal to miss a pen in that situation, should have been one of Schar, Bruno or Tonali with the crowd pressure on Gordon. Will say though that Pickford made some decent saves including the penalty, even with those little arms!

[@RaseYourProbs]

Missing the pen is a big missed chances, but we can't go on about it when we had plenty of other chances to get a goal. Yes pickford did well, but I think Gordon's 1v1 miss closer to the end was worse than the pen miss. We had so many decent half chances, we weren't clinical enough. I think EH needs to take some responsibility for persisting in keeping AG up top instead of giving osula a chance

[@Jettplayzgames]

Criminal? Enough of the hyperbole mate

[@timgill2003]

Isak scored only once in the opening 6 games so what are we missing? He wasn't exactly banging them in, was he?

[@RaseYourProbs]

He was playing through an injury, wasn't able to play to his best ability. We're missing the kinda form that saw him grab 24 PL goals last season

[@ricardovosse3841]

Over 300mins since we scored a goal from open play.

[@RonPhilp]

Clubs that get European football win these games,

[@kwanman5146]

We do have a CF on the bench but Howe doesn't play him. 🙄

[@IndieGoFigure]

Bottling it in front of goal again and again, we need Isak/wilson back fit ASAP.

[@1574john]

We are a mid table team.

[@j.j.911]

Yes, bang average.

[@Jettplayzgames]

Sixth isn’t midtable last I checked

[@rnjyoung1]

Agree. Frustrating with the talent on this team.

[@badofcheese]

Yeahh, 4th, 7th, probably 5th- 8th this season, mid table shite.

[@1574john]

@@Jettplayzgames October was not the end of a season last time I checked 😬

[@earthlingcarl3179]

6:35 - Osula can't score goals, he's got 2 league goals in his entire career, both in league one.

[@RaseYourProbs]

Bro, surely he could do no worse than the other guys that scored 0 in the game as well

[@Jettplayzgames]

Throw him on for the last 20 minutes what have you got to lose? Murphy was utter shite in the second half

[@BillyfromConsett]

Osula's just 21

[@tomruddell-h7t]

When was the last time we enjoyed watching us play, city was decent because of the effort they put in which should be a given. I don't know, already dropped points to Fulham, Everton and Bournemouth... Some good today but we never look like scoring. Watching us just isn't fun anymore

[@kooler8586]

Correct

[@stephenconnor991]

It’s not ideal. We lack a natural centre forward/ focal point upfront. At least we didn’t lose and we move on.

[@tfnufc]

100%

[@wafiwahab4472]

playing isak with a broken toe has cost us today. who makes these idiotic decisions

[@eltel4397]

No Missed chances Pickford had easy day you forget we had players missing . It be a long time before Newcastle United get anywhere near city or the Red shite Liverpool

[@geordiedog1749]

At least we know we can do way better with half a shooting boot on!

[@relayer27]

Everton play antifootball it's like going back 40 years , it's all just long ball, almost feel sorry for their fans having to watch that week after week. Think had Gordon put the pen away then we would have prob got another couple as they would have had to come out a bit

[@jorgeandrade783]

Yes its a bit anti football but we also got unlucky with that DCL pen call and Gana should have slotted that open goal as well. Also I don’t know if Newcastle would have scored more because Ill be honest Newcastle didn’t look anything that special yesterday or that good to be honest they had more chances but other than that clearance from the corner Ndiaye did I wasn’t really hand in mouth gasping for fear Newcastle were gonna score. Most of Newcastle’s chances were standard and nothing spectacular so I think it was a good point overall for us and compared to your other performances actually feel Newcastle were quite poor and who knows what would have happened if Gordon had scored we should have had the pen as well so if the ref had given the pen and if gana had slotted that in could have been a different game too could have been 1-1 had things gone our waybas well who knows I certainly don’t think both teams looked amazing to be honest but as an everton fan I’ll take a gritty hard earned point against a very good side Anyways best of luck for rest of season

[@tfnufc]

Yeah it really is horrible football to watch. Was defiantly the type of game where if that Bruno goal off the line goes in, we win 2 to 3 nil in my opinion

[@jamiefender6909]

Gordon should have relinquished the pen (hindsight etc I know) but we had enough chances to win easily tonight. It’s not only on the strikers to score goals. 10 corners to 0 And never threatened from 9 of them. Last season we’d have lost games like this. Move on and hopefully Wilson and Isak are fit again

[@JackBurton3963]

I’m almost convinced the board don’t wanna give Howe money to spend

[@jeffscott627]

100%

[@Jettplayzgames]

Can’t blame them if he wanted to spend 70m on a CB

[@coltonconner782]

Because they have clicked on they spend but Eddie don’t play the players they buy so what’s the point

[@hjc9912]

Being way too kind to Howe here.

[@yessaali133]

Barnes looked shattered and was moved up front so he was not tracking back as much. Hence why he got subbed off

[@paulschlader]

Trainer looks awesome Stu! Thanks gents, frustrating one. Agreed on performance, we missed Isak, and Wilson immensely today. Everton didn't show up to win.

[@tfnufc]

Yeah they are a horrible team under Dyche. Very anti football but got what they wanted.

[@garyford944]

A good manager would have found a way of winning this game. Howe doesn't even have a plan B

[@loonglim6962]

Operation was a success but patient is still in a coma

[@BillyfromConsett]

I didnt think that Tonali had a great game. His passing wasn't good.

[@stephenburgess626]

i know what it feels to be a tottenham supporter now

guehi+osula = striker/winger. idiotic decisions

[@Toenala]

Sensible and measured analysis

[@tfnufc]

Thank you

[@tomruddell-h7t]

These players are crying out for a better coach. And what is it with Eddie having players on the bench that we cannot call on. Happy to be there is their main selling point

[@centurion8446]

Really missed Wilson for this type of game

[@tfnufc]

Perfect game for a poacher like him

[@yogihightower]

3 games since we scored from open play. This is what happened near the end of eddies time at Bournemouth, 4-3-3 at all costs, absolutely shocking substitutions, carelessness in midfield with the ball and some how every single team we play we make look better than they are. It couldn't be more clear that the message had gone stale, the tactics are not working, the players are not up for it, and too many are comfortable playing badly. Eddie can not dine out on past achievements much longer, we are a team that plays badly a lot more often than plays good. We've fallen behind a lot of teams that are pushing for Europe. Excluding the city game, when was the last time we looked polished and played well? I don't know where our next goal is coming from. Something has to give, do we continue regressing and give eddie money to waste and write this season off? Or do we do what everyone knows needs to be done in order for the club to progress and become consistent enough to challenge for European football. When a team plays badly consistently they are a bad team, forget what went before, focus on the present, we are playing awful football again but are half a billion in with this team.
