We don't play like that. We play out with short passes using triangles. We don't lump it up and hope the CF manages to get hold of it.Saudi Sportswashing Machine away is a game where you are put under pressure and you are going to require the CF to hold the ball up for us, Son to be polite is inadequate at this. I would rather Kulu at CF for this game tbh.
It would be great if we was playing a useless Everton at home every week where our players get the time and opportunity to play with the ball as they please but unfortunately....
Still think the point stands. Need someone who can retain the balls played into them in the final third. Son is particularly bad at this especially facing towards his own goal.We don't play like that. We play out with short passes using triangles. We don't lump it up and hope the CF manages to get hold of it.
We never do. I wonder what we do in training which is different to most other PL clubs.Just came in to say the same. At some point we need to catch a break with these injuries

Son Kulu Odobert?
I look at that team and have no confidence in our ability to win the game....
I think we are desperately in need of a committed defensive central midfielder.... Our approach seems to be that sarr, Bissouma or bentancur can play there (although all three are better further forward)and that's not good enough at this level... I know such players are not easy to find but we've all seen the stats for Emirates Marketing Project which show the much higher win ratio for when Rodri starts.
Gray and Bergvall are great signings but at their age we have to give them time and so I think it was a poor transfer window..
I obviously hope I am pleasantly surprised today but if we do win I suspect we will have to score 3 or 4 goals...
COYS.
I fear this tooGot a bad feeling this could turn out to be another mauling on Tyneside
