Newcastle fan in Australia.
My thoughts on our club.
Analysis, complaining and Newcastle

@A_Andersen_ Do you not think there is a significant issue with Jaissles build up and profiling of current NUFC players? I have written about this a lot

[Tom @AllAboutTheToon]

@Magpie24_7 He’s barely had a moment to settle in.
Played out of position, been ill.

He also had an injury at Lille last season. Play him on LW and give him time exciting player

[Tom @AllAboutTheToon]

Seen a lot of these posts today. Emery didn’t get everything he wanted. Their midfield and defence is not great. Also playing in Europe and have good patterns of play which need to be worked on.

We have no Europe, no patterns of play and a very similar squad which is not being used right.

[Tom @AllAboutTheToon]

@JakeJackmann Yeah agreed, but we’re running out of time.

[Tom @AllAboutTheToon]

It's really difficult watching NUFC at the moment. Jaissle has some questionable build up tendencies and the players do not help him. They are lazy and unimaginative. This is a really worrying place for Newcastle to be in as there is no obvious answer for the front 3. Jaissle can help us in build up however because what he has now is not working. Steur, Nico and Ramsey need to be our 3 moving forward with Nico at the 6. Touré and Pardo have to be used wide to give us width and a threat.

As we all know our 'easy' fixtures are coming to an end and these next couple of months could have us going into January down the bottom end of the league with these patterns.

Another frustrating watch for Newcastle against Fulham.

The good:
Steur played
More structure at the back in a 5 off the ball
Dedić causing problems

The bad:
Patchy build up issues again
Midfield confusion
Wissa & Osula appauling

Recap and thread below:

[Tom @AllAboutTheToon]

Going forward I don't need to repeat what we all saw yesterday. Wasteful, lazy and uninspiring.

Murphy here, yes he got the goal and got us out of trouble. His 1 or 2 good crosses a game is not worth his lack of attacking IQ. Constantly making the wrong runs, not making defenders stretch and giving his team options. Dedić in this area is extremely dangerous on the underlap, except here Murphy is making the same run as his teammate and making sure the Fulham back line stays nice and compact. Dedić should be playing the ball into the green circle but has to go wide as Murphy's lack of movement creates no space.

@ToonTakeover_ Where has this come from. Why does everyone keep saying this?

Do people not watch football and know what Como are doing? 😂

[Tom @AllAboutTheToon]

@clayfm1996 433 suits us best. Also much better to have Pardo on the left side of anything we do

[Tom @AllAboutTheToon]

@AGOTH_NUFC He should be given until December, but if he keeps playing the same XI and doesn’t find a solution in that midfield and statue situation he has up top may very well be sooner. There will be managers thinking they can get a tune out of a young squad like that.

[Tom @AllAboutTheToon]

There’s a human side to Jaissle and Newcastle. Yes he’s struggling, and tactically a bit naive for the Prem, but he’s a young manager taking a massive step up.

Hopefully he can find it within to turn it around or at least use this as a massive opportunity to refine his coaching career.

Managing Newcastle is a different beast with a passionate fanbase, you don’t want to see a man become a shell of himself and it’s starting to look that way in interviews and the noise around the club. He should knuckle down and remove the honesty from his press conferences.

@Pooliemags1Ttv A man can only dream. He’s not changing
