The Mags can only criticise Benitez if they admit they were wrong all along and other people were right.

I wonder what the odds on that are.
 
They have the players to win games. The manager isn’t using those players effectively.

That Christian Astu lad terrified it’s defence for the first 20.

After that Rafa has them sitting further and further back aiming to win the draw

Blind puppy love from the screaming masses can’t see this.

I was impressed with Atsu, he just hasnt got the final bit of quality.

Do you not think Man Utd just upped the anti and started imposing themselves better? I thought they knocked it around brilliantly, Mata in to that forward line of Rashford, Martial and Pogba.
 
Talking to a Newcastle fan at work yesterday, and conversation got onto the Sunderland Netflix documentary, and he said there would be no way Newcastle would ever do something like that. Wouldn't make good viewing, and very uncomfortable to watch. Also don't think the club would want to embarrass themselves with doing a programme like that.

Thinking about it after last night's match. How is any different to being live on Sky Sports/BT Sport about nine times during the football season so far, compared to being shown eight times on Netflix?
 
It was like watching a Steve Bruce game last night. Aim - 1 point, go 1 goal down, no game plan to get back into the game other than don't concede 2 and hope for a 'break'.
 
horror show tactics yesterday. Bus well and truly parked, very physical defending with a helpful ref, and only looking for counter attack goals. May well have worked had their keeper not fluffed his lines. They play like that home and away except when rafa needs points and then he sets them up normally, and hey-ho they can suddenly play good football. They are nowhere near as bad as rafa is making them play.

Valencia gave him so much space it was unbelievable. All teams seem to target him. Atsu raised his game and still didn't do that much damage. They got lucky twice against Watford if they don't beat Cardiff another Rafagation is definitely on the cards. At times they had 3 men on Pogba and still a poor Manure managed to beat them. They're bloody shite under the fat lad. Tactics huh!!!!

Benitez will persist with Perez until they're relegated, I've no idea what his contribution is tbh.

The Newcastle supporters seem to have no idea either, yet criticism of Benitez isn't allowed.

Everything is so targeted against Ashley that the manager, who isn't managing, gets away with his dreadful football and negative attacks on his players

I'm loving it, watching the Mags defend Benitez, against all criticism, is hilarious and unending.
 
Rafa spinning it the other week saying it will be a miracle if they stop up this season due to what he’s been given to spend, and they were all lapping it up. Any other manager would be getting pelters. This fucker seems to walk on the Tyne and turn water into Newcastle Brown.

:lol:

To make it worse he said it would be 'another miracle' so he's already anointed himself :rolleyes:
 
Will be interesting to see if he takes the Blackburn game seriously.
 
I suppose we have to consider the possibility that it's us who don't understand.

Perhaps Benitez really is a tactical genius and world class manager.

After all the vast majority of Mags say so but also the media, pundits, etc.

Are we all deluded :eek:
