Original 21 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Well. Now it’s time for one of Pochettino’s famous half-time pep talks. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiago97 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 That goal conceded is just beyond pathetic. In complete control of that passage of play, but bang average ability on the ball just creates the mess . I’m 42 and this lot are comfortably the most frustrating group of players I have had the pleasure of watching in the last 35 years at the club. Not in doubt.

My Blood Is Blue Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Summary of the half… Chelsea get an early goal through the good work of Gusto and Palmer down the right. Chelsea continue to get joy down the right as Gordon refuses to track back, Eddie Howe spots this and makes a change and it works, Chelsea can longer attack Burn 2 on 1. Newcastle start to grow into the match, slowly starting to control the game and Pochettino does nothing but watch as it unfolds in front of him. Eventually the inevitable happens and Newcastle get the equaliser and Pochettino continues to watch on without changing anything. The story of the second half will be… Newcastle coming out, possibly with another tactical tweak and Chelsea will come out the same. Newcastle will be on top and the pressure will grow. Pochettino will continue to look on, but unmoved, no changes happening. Eventually Newcastle get the goal to go ahead and finally Pochettino reacts, Silva on for Cucurella, Gusto to LB and Chalobah to RB, forcing the entire back line to readjust and have no clue who is doing what. He will also bring on Mudryk for Sterling and nobody will notice any difference. Newcastle will score a 3rd. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kelly Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 A big half time team talk from Mr. Motivator coming up. I expect we'll lose now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ham Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Easy to blame Poch for that but unnecessary individual errors cost us the lead. Chalobah has been piss awful from the first minute. Enzo can't complete a pass. Until we have fit CMs to back up Enzo and Caicedo they are going to struggle. They both look gassed already. A word on the commentary, particularly by Gary Neville, he's clearly had us in his crosshairs fire a while now and his dismissal of our injury crisis was a disgrace, particularly when he supported Liverpool in the next breath even though their injury crisis only lasted 2 matches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asvaberg Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 I can still remember a dark and misty afternoon at SB in November 1983. We trashed Newcastle 4-0 with Speedie, Dixon, Nevin, Hollins, Rhoades-Brown etc. Against "stars" like McDermott, Keegan, Waddle, Bearsdley. A wonderful memory 💙💙💙💙 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
