Newcastle (A) 27/10 Build-Up & Match Thread

Donck at CB will be interesting. Should be something he can handle.

Well as he has played there before he should do. Infact when we signed him we all presumed he would be the RCB and cover for midfield

And Samuel Eto'o has played leftback.

He hasn't played CB for us except for one game IIRC so it's still a bit of an unknown.

 

[sycophantia]

Thats the line up I'd have gone with

Played a couple...

But before he arrived he had played at RCB a fair bit, hence the presumption he would play there for us ahead of Bennett. This isn't a player being dumped into a new position

Sky trying to guess at Doherty in the back three in a 3-5-2. Lol.

It would be funny if we weren't one of the only/few teams that tweets our teams showing the formation [emoji23]

Team I wanted too, all considered.

They STILL said that in the Nuno interview. Bizarre.

 

[Deano]

Looks like Doherty is at CB, Traore RWB and Donk in midfield. That's the way they've been warming up

 

[Charlie Wolf]

Donck at the back. 343

That’d be my team for today, as proposed in my post last night!

 

[Paul]

How ginger is that Matty Longstaff ?

 

[Carrotdude]

I think that’s a mistake if that’s what we’re doing. Makes way more sense to be 3-4-3

 

[Tredman]

Sky got it right.

 

[Jack Regan]

Yep can't agree with the way we're lining up today.

 

[playtheace]

Hmm...for me,we always seem more on our game when Doc & Traore click.
Donk and Traore just donthave the same understanding with each other..

 

[Carrotdude]

Jota’s started well

 

[Jack Regan]

Bright enough start though.

 

[Stan Hullis]

It seems strange but I’ll trust Nuno. If it doesn’t work we can shuffle it easy enough.

 

[The Bion]

Seems completely daft but proof will be in the pudding I guess

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

i am guessing it is meant to put pressure in midfield on the ginge and his brother.

 

[Carrotdude]

Traore v saint maximin will be interesting

 

[MARKakaJIM]

At times it looks almost like 343 with all of Donk, Traore and Doherty in the wrong positions.
