26/27 PL Score Centre GW6

[filmyfan]

3-1

 

[Les Beeavinu]

Are Newcastle complaining that a foul wasn't given against them

 

[Untouchable]

Fair play, excellent advantage from John Brooks.

 

[badgerbee]

Fair play, excellent advantage from John Brooks.

Been decent tonight.

 

[Travel Tavern Bee]

Just sounded a bit odd for a pre match song. But fair enough.... I guess.

Yeah I know what you mean not that rousing

 

[SH]

What a ball from Ethan to start the counter-attack that led to the goal

 

[Mr Tree]

Very favourable round of results were Cov to win this.

Don’t get xg btw! If a side score two goals - that is two actual, physical, real goals that the goalkeeper has to scoop out of the bottom of his goal - how can the xg count be 1.05? That’s just silly.

It basically means that, play the game 40 times with exactly the same chances, 21 of those times they'd have 2 goals, 19 times they'd have one

... wait, that's not right. Something like that though. It's late, I'll get back to you...

 

[NZ Bee]

Was Mfuni giving it back to his own fans?

 

[Hippobee]

Coventry 4-1 Newcastle

Well I don't think anyone had that in their super 6.

 

[North London Bee]

Just seen their new ex Brentford head of medical Dr Naheem S. Ali on the pitch.

 

[Banana]

It's going to be hard to not qualify for the CL this season!

 

[badgerbee]

Well I don't think anyone had that in their super 6.

Regular away score for Newcastle this season isnt it??

 

[Les Beeavinu]

Will The Fish be on later to tell us how this is all the fault of SCR?

 

[Untouchable]

FT
Coventry 4-1 Newcastle

I do enjoy a Wissa hate watch. So pleased to see his run of form ended at game week 2.

 

[TW1Bee]

Been decent tonight.

Reffing us on Saturday

A bit harsh Les. It’s always unfair on Newcastle when Coventry were able to flex their financial muscle by signing Frank Onyeka and Dan Bentley.

 

[SH]

If Carlsberg did GW6…

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

I wonder how Benham ever made any money. Makes you wonder who's wrong eh? you or him?

Yes, sorry. Silly me. I predict 4, btw.

 

[kaebess]

When was the last time non of the promoted teams were in the bottom 3? Must be a while

 

[Griffingreen]

Coventry's found a bit of form, just in time for next game v Fulham

 

[tinman]

By the end of GW6 we could have been as low as seventh if the results hadn’t gone our way. Cream always rises to the top.

 

[ladbroke]

Was Mfuni giving it back to his own fans?

To the Newcastle fans in that corner/behind goal.

I could understand if local derby or something but an 18 year old doing it seems stupid

 

[cliffbee]

Its early days, lets talk after 30 games.

Fine, all comments banned till March!

Pretty sure it happened around this time last season before Burnley dropped down after a reasonable start.

Thank you, just looked it and you are spot on

 

[Boston Bee]

Fulham, City, Spurs. Imagine the fun they'd have in the Championship.

Fixed it for you.

 

[JANORAK]

Fu*ham, Spurts (sort of), Liverpool, Bournemouth and Newcastle all struggling to adjust to, and adapt for, a new Manager. Further emphasising the great start that KA made with us last season.

 

[hanworthbee]

Was Mfuni giving it back to his own fans?

As he's on loan from man city maybe it was something to do with that.

Didn't expect that one anyway great result for cov and Ethan

 

[JANORAK]

Is the Newcastle GK a rookie, or a replacement (No.21)? Viewing last night’s Coventry goals, it struck me that all 4 were scored low, to his left. A substantial weakness, or just bad luck/positioning?

Hornicek cost them ~£25m from Braga and was signed to be their No. 1 keeper. Nick Pope was on the bench.

Agree he didn’t look great and Newcastle have had some pastings already this season. He’s 4th on the (early days) Goals Prevented table that maybe says more about how poorly they defend in general.

Goals Prevented: Expected Goals on Target (xGOT) minus actual goals conceded (excluding own goals). A positive number indicates a goalkeeper saving (shot stopping) more than would be expected: Goals prevented - Premier League 2026/2027 stats

PS Suspect Kelleher’s save from McGinn (chance partly of his own making) has contributed significantly to his 1.0 rating.

 

[Kingston Bee]

Pretty sure it happened around this time last season before Burnley dropped down after a reasonable start.

You can also make a reasonable arguement that one of the spots is already taken by one team awaiting a decision later this season!

22 November to be precise; a point for West Ham against Bournemouth sent Burnley into the bottom 3 never to return

That is why its early days!

I read a piece somewhere, specifically about this season and the number of teams with coach/player churn, that identified Arsenal, Brentford and Brighton as able to start the season well due to the ability both to minimise 180º turns in playing style and the introduction of new players and staff into a settled environment.

I think the gradual introductions of Sangaré and Diouf (plus Schuster!) are good examples of us now being able to integrate new players into a larger squad and our style of play.

PS Suspect Kelleher’s save from McGinn (chance partly of his own making) has contributed significantly to his 1.0 rating.

I think the reason he (and the defence ) is facing more shots is because they dont have Guimaraes and Toenail falling over in the midfield and being given cheap free kicks, or hacking down oppo players to halt attacks.

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

Reffing us on Saturday

Anyone, so long as we don’t get that McGinn again.

[Untouchable]

This was the right outcome. The attacker had no hope of gaining control of the ball.
