      ~~Great~~ Phenomenonal match.

      Defensive performance in first half is concerning but on the positive side, the team is still world class when we want it. The pressing in second half is what changed the game for me.

      Hopefully both Garcia’s are okay. On we move.

      Not giving Rashford any minutes when you’re up 6–2 is weird, why are we even trying to sign him then?

    7. Similar-Earth8288 on

      So as long as some players don’t have these bozo moments we can smash any team. Easy thing to do right? RIGHT?

      That miss from Lewy and Lamine in first half was sad, but glad uncle redeemed himself in the 2nd half. Great match overall.

      Barcelona is sometimes the best team in the world, but other times they forget that

    17. Ballsoffwalls on

      bro this match is so weird. how was this even close in the second half? tf happened in the newcastle dressing room at halftime??

    18. navneetjoshi7 on

      Barcelona and scoring 7 goals at home against an English manager. Where have I seen this before hmmm?

      WHAT A WIN, BRING US ATLETI OR TOTTENHAM NOW

      We look like proper UCL contenders

      Our defense is thinning out though, if Araujo gets a concussion then Xavi Espart might start

      shameful commentary. newcastle shipped 7 goals and they were still singing their praises. called it an “evenly contested” game at the end.

    30. AliveAd8385 on

      Despite his stupid mistake, Lamine made this game solo, like he literally changed it with his individual skills. Ramadan Lamine was scary.

      Flick at HT: “I will find 11 other La Masia players to replace all of you.”

      – Probably

      The amount of hate and vitriol against our own players in match thread is damning. Araujo, Fermin, Martin, Lewandowski etc. It’s one of the reasons why I don’t get involved in match day threads and post match threads in general. It get’s so toxic and depressing.

      Yes, fans are allowed to be reactionary; but to a limit. Just look at the comments when Araujo got a concussion at the end of the game when we are 7-2 up.

      Mods please enforce some level of decency in match day threads if possible.
