Point i'm trying to make is; after playing it around the back getting into trouble Hornicek just belted the ball forward anyway so why not just get it out of harms way in the first place
Report ----you-have-to-laugh--- September 5, 2026 7:44 PM BST
Yeah, pretty much they are looking for a gap, but
the press put them under pressure so we had
increasingly poor chances to hit it long to nobody.

Hornicek took a long goal kick first half and jasille had him over at next break and
told him to play it short.

Centre mids need to space out, to get free, as
do willock wissa,

Subs improved it.


Thing is we had height advantage in most match ups, bar our full backs, so long balls
would be OK(ish) .

I think Miley was expecting nico to go more direct, as at spurs, so maybe didn't work hard enough to
get into space to give him another option.

It's often a case that hitting it long from half way inside your half gives forwards a chance to run against high back line... Whereas goalie kicking it is heads up on half way line.

But I think jasille wanted them to persevere
with trying to beat the press, which caused the back passes and goalie punts.

So yarll agreeing we need a centre forward at last.

i dont know if we thought we had done the hard part after first 2 games but we were blatantly second best in every department in the first half.Everybody was poor.Obviously second was better but still not good enough.

Once again yesterdays match saw Lewis Hall with by far and away the most defensive interceptions (15) on the other side of the pitch Dedic made 4, love the athelticism of Dedic, his attacking play is fast and direct but maybe he should concentrate defending a bit more?

Pardo wissa are strikers

I think they will both play.. with them swapping in game as 9/10.

Pardo looked good the little we saw of him.



Oddly we had more possession than Bournemooth, even in the poor first half, which is possibly a good sigh
for the future, given how hard bournemooth
pressed us.

56% 1st half 60% 2nd half, of course influenced by them diving for free kicks
rather than playing through us.

Very disapointed with last nights performance from some.I will start at the back,defence looked strangers who had just met and spoke 4 different languages.Midfield,none of them can see a forward pass apart from Nico and thats a long diagonal to the wing.Forwards,well in name only,no one in the middle to win headers for the wingers if they got a cross in.Wingers came in too narrow and full backs didnt overlap.Wissa ran about in the defensive midfield area having a competition with Nico on who could give the stupidist free kick away in the most dangerous area.Subs came on andhad to chase long aimless balls that even a collie dog would get sick of chasing.You might think i am having a go at the manager.I am not,its these brainless players who lack the talent and courage to attack in a meaningfull way.Most of the starting 11 have been here a whils now and same old failings came out again.We were crying out for Stuer to come on and make some penetrive forward passes.

All in all a good nights work though and a clean sheet is good.

As an article in the Mag said "Millwall only gave Newcastle United fans a meagre 2,072 tickets for Tuesday night and they have sold out. This is the basic minimum 10% of capacity allocation that Carabao Cup rules dictate for away fans.

So we are going to have one of those ridiculous situations where there will be a half empty stadium and thousands more Newcastle United fans, especially those living in and around London, would have loved to have gone but Millwall preferring to have empty seats rather than away fans paying for them."

Because of the points system,only the very longstanding season ticket holders could have got a ticket. Madness.

Do you think they were better options than buying wissa?

I think wissa was best buy at the time, and he had a poor season because of injury and silly beggars wanting to engineer transfers.

He's playing a bit deeper now too, and needs
players around him to get beyond him from wide positions and midfield.

Pardo and osula alongside him should be explored before spending another 70m to buy
a striker.

We wanted that guy from Portugal but he didn't want to come, then got injured.

There's not many oven ready centre forwards around these days and with increased physicality in Premier league I think fewer
fancy being battered 38 times a season and
burning out.

The scouts will be out looking as wissa is already 30.
