What was Hughes supposed to do? One day rest between games in the Premier League?
He had no choice. Newcastle is a six pointer. Should he have tried to get a noble away draw and lose to our real rivals?
This is the new shiny Premier League and we as fans need to adjust to its reality.
That’s all Mark Hughes did today

What’s the excuse for all the other thrashings and the -23 goal difference then?

I was talking about today Had we not been so dreadful all season, Newcastle wouldn't be a six pointer and today we may have afforded to have fielded a better side. |

Lower league clubs go to Stamford Bridge most seasons and don't find themselves 3-0 inside 23 mins. All of our players today apart from Edwards, Tymon and the £12m Berahino have international caps. Southampton went to Old Trafford today and got a credible draw. Newcastle played Man City the other day, kept it tight and lost 1-0, rather than rolling over and conceding seven.
There are no excuses for our defensive record, which is the worst in the division by far. There are no excuses for a team full of experienced international players to turn up to a match without any organisation, plan, or desire to press the opposition and lose 5-0.
I'm tired of the batterings and then being told that we were unlucky or fed the usual excuses. It's about time some people inside the club took some responsibility, acknowledged the position we're in, and vowed to put it right.

2 games in 3 days. This is not the first time it has happened, so it's hardly a shock.
And anyway Newcastle shouldn't be a 'must win', a 'six pointer'. We shouldn't be in a relegation battle. The fact we are is down to Hughes.
The fact we have to give up these games is down to Hughes.

Today he couldn't really have done anything else, but play some fringe players & the back four picked itself through injuries and Zouma's loan rules. What we shouldn't have done was concede in the 2nd minute, as this immediately got Chelsea on the front foot & put doubt into our young defenders' minds from the start. Risking more injuries to our main players by them playing two games in 48 hours was too big a risk with the importance of the Newcastle game being paramount to our chances of staying up this season.

Sooty buy it’s not it’s because over 4 years we’ve invested les than our rivals , invested what we have badly , and sold our best two players without replacing them . A sustained period of off field incompetence without sanction or repercussion , leave the manager alone , do you think anyone Better would consider a job with one of the lowest premier league salaries and a loan and sell the buy budget , look ekswhere for the accountability starting with Hughes immediate and full time boss |

There have been several studies that show that 3-4 days between games is no different to a player than 7 days.
I understand today mind, and my issue is with the way the defenders played rather than the fact they were picked, and the fact that on a larger timescale we've gone from beating big teams to accepting a 5-0 loss so we can concentrate on beating relegation rivals.

There is no way in the Premier League 11 players can play at top capacity after one days rest. Not possible

But he's useless with the squad he has at his disposa. And anyway if he was unhappy he should have quit when his stock was high. |

Playing another struggling team so it won't be anything to boast about, if we win. We have BIG problems. Mickmac you do talk crap! |

P Coates wants a sustainable and well run club that pays for itself. Which in theory is great, buy foreign players and flog them for hopefully more. Get a free transfer I.e Chuppo and then flog him for money. Get youngsters to fill the academy etc and hopefully they will breakthrough in to the first team. Then flog them a few years later etc etc. However, this in theory is great but doesn’t work if you buy shite, buy players that hopefully click together but don’t , buy players that you don’t need and overlook areas that definitely need strengthening. The manager doesn’t have a plan A or B, are poorly coached, train incorrectly such as no defensive practice and due to poor training have so many injuries the team chops and changes too much. There is a lot wrong at the moment but Hughes is the manager Who is at the centre of it. |
