Positives & Negatives v Newcastle (one of each please)

[1964white]

Positives.......

Negatives.....

[SG90]

Positive: Struijk outstanding
Negative: Llorente injured again

[mav]

Positive : Struijk was excellent.
Negative : Lack of control in CM

[Ron Swanson]

Positives - Struijk in his actual position

Negatives - Bamford & Alioski were League 2 today

[Finnatic]

+ two very good goals to win the game.

- giving the ball away every time we had it at the back - not the usual giving the ball away when in transition into midfield.

[Lumiukko]

Positives: (aside from Struijk and Meslier having good games) Rapha scoring one and assisting one.

Negatives: (aside from Llorente's injury) how easy it was for Newcastle's players to stroll through our midfield again.

[Velotrax]

Pos, Meslier back

Neg, How poor our defense is

[Prisoner37]

Pos: We won in January and some good individual performances, including Roberts, as Paddy needs some competition.

Neg: If we surrender the midfield to Leicester like that we will get cut to ribbons.

[Leeds1000]

Pos: Allardyce would love that type of performance.

Neg: We got the 3 points so that makes him right.

[HarryofOz]

Positive: Bielsa post-match with Bruce
Negative: Llorente's injury

[Irish Ian]

Pos Raphinha. Bargain of the century
Neg. Llorente. Eye wipe of the century

Seeing in both cases the century is just over a year underway.

[becchio bear]

Positives: We won and got 3 points
Negatives: Newcastle were a dirty cheating side and got away with it

[Boo Radley]

Positive - Raphinha different class (and Roberts work-rate when he did come on)

Negative - the amount of our players simply missing in action ( Bamford, Philips, Alioski, Klich)

[Bally]

Positive - Rodrigo 2nd half

Negative - Championship Bamford is back

[Smudge3920]

Pos - We held onto the lead and took 3 pts.

Neg - Llorentes hamstring (MB can deal with the rest)

[CHAPELALLMAN]

Positive - Raphinha is the real deal ( plus I predicted the result correctly, including one of our scorers )

Negative - defensively, we are likely to be battered when we play Leicester.

[1964white]

Positive - Raphinha is the real deal ( plus I predicted the result correctly, including one of our scorers )

Negative - defensively, we are likely to be battered when we play Leicester.

The Foxes will be far too good for us even without Vardy.

[1964white]

Positive - Raphinha different class (and Roberts work-rate when he did come on)

Negative - The amount of our players simply missing in action ( Bamford, Philips, Alioski, Klich)

Concerning as it wasn't just tonight's game, all four have been poor in our last three prem games (2 in KP's case)

[1964white]

Pos, Meslier back

Neg, How poor our defense is

Shocking Velo

[1964white]

Positives - Struijk in his actual position

Negatives - Bamford & Alioski were League 2 today

Watching them tonight you'd think they've never kicked or controlled a football in their lives
