Newport County v Manchester United - FA Cup 28/01/24 4:30pm - Official Match Thread

Erik ten Blag

Well done lads.

I'm off to Rob Santwris World of Carpets to claim my free gripper.

Easy money.

Mins for a lot of players back from injuries. Never in doubt . Even at 2-2 , Newport had two real chances to score and the took them.

Good win, enjoyable game ...

He dissected by #@&%!s for days ..

Antony MOTM

He’s not messing about is he.

Ragnick was spot on when he said we needed 10 new players

keeper has had a couple of moments with the ball at his feet, but not an obvious weakness today. has long arms. bonus.

players coming back. a few lazy on the second goal.

antony and nacho need a £#%&!ing slap.

Nothing to add

Yea the wingers , decision making at times was poor. Could have ended the game in 30 mins. Would like to have seen Amad get some mins, think he should get a chance considering Antony tends to be £#%&! .

problem is, he is another who likes to cut in and shoot.

hojlund needs someone who will pay attention to where he is and play him in. like a winger.

They just can't stop themselves from giving away shit goals can theye.

Any half decent premier league team or even top of the championship level will see us off out of this competition.

I think he’s a bit more dynamic than Antony. Watching quite a bit for Sunderland, and ok it’s a different weaker league but he isn’t a “cut in in your left” at all times winger.

At the very least , it’s not like Antony is tearing up the league. Did ok today but he also had moments of shite. The position isn’t locked down and personally I think Amad would be a better player than Antony on the right.

Agree with hojlund comment, he just doesn’t get the ball so on the rare times he actually does get in a position to shoot and misses , some people jump on the back of him .

One thing I noticed is Hojlund is quite level headed, he got into some positions where he could have been selfish and shot from a harder angle but still made the pass.

Antony 6 shots
Bruno 5 shots
Garnacho 5 shots

Hojlund 1 shot


WTF is ten hag doing on the training ground each week?
