Saturday’s match ended Newcastle 1 Brentford 0.
Forward of every match we ask certainly one of our writers to provide you with three positives and three negatives following the sport.
A sport that noticed Newcastle United hold a clear sheet and grind out a deserved 1-0 win towards very respectable opposition.
On this event it’s David Punton:
POSITIVES
Tremendous Cal
Recent from signing a contract extension, it was the boot of Callum Wilson that bought us three a lot wanted factors.
It wasn’t a tremendous sport, however when the important thing second arrived within the second half, the quantity 9 was ice cool from the penalty spot.
He went excessive with the kick however it labored, made unsavable.
He should have had one other, because the ball he stabbed house from a yard was clearly not a foul on the Brentford goalkeeper within the construct up, one thing that was backed up by former referees’ boss Keith Hackett.
Wilson is important to our trigger and the choice to begin him was appropriate and he did the job.
Higher second half
We appeared to wake from our slumbers after a half time cuppa.
The midfield specifically bought extra of a grip on the sport, with Bruno and Longstaff combining rather well.
The Brazilian, who is barely human and will endure losses of kind like all gamers, appeared to be getting again into his stride. The journey away with the Brazil nationwide staff maybe serving to that.
Longstaff too was glorious. His workrate is essential and he’s staked his declare.
Honest play Dan Burn
A significantly better outing for Dan Burn in that left again slot. Some essential interventions helped to make sure a clear sheet.
It was a significantly better efficiency from the massive man after that Brighton horror present.
The return of Sven Botman was a giant increase too they usually all mixed to register a clear sheet.
While you have a look at the entire sport, a Brentford facet shorn of Ivan Toney didn’t trigger us that many issues.
NEGATIVES:
Ref justice
A poor show from the match referee Craig Pawson was a giant unfavorable.
He denied us a wonderfully good aim and the penalty that we did get, we even have the assistant to thank for recommending to Pawson that he gave it.
The Gordon incident was controversial however it was certainly one of them ‘you see them get given’.
Pawson appeared to let some tackles from behind go when it was Brentford gamers and his normal method appeared to that of a person decided to not appear like a homer.
Thomas Frank
Yet one more bitch fest from the Danish Brentford boss. He appears to have a behavior of doing this once we play them.
Final time he was irked we had a £60m striker on the bench.
Right here it was the penalty award and the ball boys getting his again up.
He completely ignored the handball enchantment – one other a kind of you see given – and the aim that was wrongly chalked off.
Frank has performed an incredible job at Brentford however he doesn’t half like a moan.
No Joe
A giant unfavorable emerged on Saturday away from this sport, with the information Joelinton has been to see a specialist about his knee and he’s going through just a few weeks out, minimal.
He’s very important to the trigger and he’ll be a giant miss within the weeks forward.
