Someone should probably call a scientist or something, this could be big news. Except he said it affected everybody on the pitch and both teams lost a lot of balls. Why do people get so hung up on what was just a tiny part of his answer to a question? Absolute bores Is he wrong in saying it didn't help? Has he said that was the reason we lost? No to both.

Gotten very precious under the attention of this title race you lot. My post was very clearly just me being a cunt. Why don't you quote Marc or Cicero who actually could have been interpreted as not entirely taking the piss, even though I'm absolutely certain that they were? I mean I'm sure it's not because I have an Everton badge next to my name and you like to make out we're obsessed with you . Klopp got some stick a while ago for seeming to blame the wind for a Liverpool defeat, I don't remember the quote on that occasion or how much it got twisted to make it somewhat memorable but the fact he mentions it again is mildly commentworthy as a joke. I don't think anyone is seriously suggesting that he's actually "blaming the wind" for the loss. This is one of those things where if Klopp gets called out on it people are 'obsessed' or 'hung up on it', yet imagine another manager, say Mourinho when he was United manager, made a comment like that, he'd be subject to three pages of ridicule before the interview was even finished, no doubt with you guys at the heart of it (which isn't a criticism).

Honey Honey 3,767 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Weak team again for us. Back 3 ok. Longstaff and Roberts in centre mid. Massive game for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,383 Posted January 15, 2019 Author Administrator Share Posted January 15, 2019 Newcastle already 1 up! Missed it but commentators saying it was a huge deflection. These kit choices are screwing with my eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey 3,767 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Goal Longstaff 1 minute in! Loads of time and space on the edge of the box hits it and deflects beyond the keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,383 Posted January 15, 2019 Author Administrator Share Posted January 15, 2019 0-2! Cal Roberts scores from close range after good work down the wing from Murphy.

Bluewolf 7,161 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I thought scoring and progressing in the Cups was not part of Newcastles policy???

Administrator Stan 18,383 Posted January 15, 2019 Author Administrator Share Posted January 15, 2019 Isaac Hayden hits the post with a header from a corner. Chris Sutton always seems apoplectic about everything! As if he's annoyed about anything and everything that happens on the field. Makes it so difficult to listen to his commentating. He just had a go at Bennett who was on the post for that header, exclaiming 'What was the guy on the post doing?!' without realising that if Bennett did block it, it most likely would have been with his hand or arm . Proper melt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See you in Court... It's a priority for me. It's not for Rafa. He's tried hard to get us knocked out whilst remaining professional. Unfortunately for him his attempts led to his personal nightmare, a replay. Now maybe another nightmare of his extra time. 3 minutes ago, Bluebird Hewitt said: Not sure how many would play against us but hoping the replay knackers a few of Newcastle's players for our game. 2 of the starters definitely, max 4.

Lucas 3,827 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Just looking at that Newcastle team tells you all you need to know. Makes you wonder though how clubs coped in the past when they pretty much sent their full teams out for cup games bar maybe a couple changes. Sad really that the modern day footballer is underworked and overpaid whilst ex footballers who played pretty much most the games in a season struggle financially. Never right...
