Brilliant through ball and finish

Brilliant through ball and finish

Great finish by Macca, but totally fantastic pass by Ruben. Credit also to Jones for winning the ball in the first place.
A goal worth waiting 90 mins for!

there's 5 subs, Taylor, Bostock, O'Brien, Lemonheigh-Evans and Mair unless you mean only 4 outfield players

Here's my take on this game inc. the last few games, and I'm sure there are many who won't agree. For all of the players recently signed, however good they may be, and in doing so we have lost that fluency which we have had for most of the season. I think we have introduced too many into the team, which to be honest, didn't really need doing. And I think this is the reason why we are stuttering at the moment.

We had to sign new players to increase and strengthen the squad,Bostock and Jones have definitely done that and I would argue that without them we probably wouldn’t have maintained our challenge.
It’s too early to say about CLE but he has a quality reputation and I think and hope that he comes good in the last 10 games.
These players are certainly an upgrade on Francis,Baj and Taylor plus OBrien couldn’t play in every game and we have had a lot of Saturday Tuesday games

[Magpies1959]

Surely we can play a forty six game season using the same eleven unless we have injuries

Someone thinks we can 😜

CLEs just not match fit, he’s more than proven he’s absolute quality at this level over a sustained period.

This ^^^ We know CLE is a quality player cos we've seen it for ourselves, he just needs a bit of time to get up to speed is all. Wherever we finish this season, he's one I would like to see us sign permanently, IAAP.

I thought without the new signings we were doing pretty well and the football being played at times was brilliant. That's not to say we didn't need to strengthen the squad. We didn't need to change the team to accommodate them.

You cant play 50 games a season though with hardly any changes.

Football is much faster now than it was years ago if you cant run you have no future.

Me too, but his miss yesterday was an absolute shocker.

I hope it's included in the highlights.
