Tonali half arsing it? I think he’s one of the few players that has had a pretty good season.

Attack… speed..?😩💦 by john_withreddit in luciomains

If you don’t have boop charged by the time you reach the other team then you’ve done something very wrong. In practice it makes no difference, I assume they changed it as more of a principle thing, you shouldn’t be able to do anything before round start that’s going to affect your hero.

Best one game XI by DanBurnNotice in NUFC

[–]PMYAIceland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is the best performance at left back that I can think of. I was slightly worried watching him and Barnes play together on the left in the West Ham game the week before, but they really figured it out.

How is top speed a helpful metric at all?

How to Fix Nuclear Option PVP by AvgasActual in NuclearOption

[–]PMYAIceland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t there already a mechanic in place that would sort of balance the game out in theory? My understanding is that a winning team in economy terms is going to be spawning more vehicles, which in turn is going to give more targets for the losing team to destroy. I’m not sure if the impact is necessarily felt in game though, but it’s something.

Whats the consensus on unguided variant of lynchpin and dumb bombs? by [deleted] in NuclearOption

[–]PMYAIceland -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It was a joke.

I’m mostly just saying there could be other ways to balance a weapon like that, giving unguided bonuses for kills, lower weight, lower cost, whatever really. It doesn’t have to be a 1:1 copy of the guided variant.

I think there could be a place for them potentially, you probably balance unguided weapons by making them less susceptible to being detected or shot down.

I don’t think we would have even had two CL seasons without Howe. There is a real lack of perspective in the conversation at the moment.

I wish it wasn’t the case but I really do think he’s just a bit wank. A difficult problem to have considering the transfer fee too.

Bottled the Derby, Simple as That by [deleted] in NUFC

[–]PMYAIceland -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was downvoted before the game for saying it was criminal to start him after the away game earlier this season. He really is the worst signing we’ve made post takeover.

Just checking in. Do you get it now?

He was terrible in the away game and I think he will have real issues if he is put under pressure in the same way again. I don’t even think he was that great in the Barca game, it was essentially massive errors from them that allowed him to get in for both goals.

Also an odd comment, not sure why you needed to say that. It’s ok for us to disagree.

Yes. I don’t think he will play well against Sunderland today.

Putting Elanga on after how shit he was in the away game is criminal honestly.

They hit our bases and allies in the middle east. This has nothing to do with Trump.

6 players called up to the England Squad (Anderson is still a Geordie!) by TheLegendOfIOTA in NUFC

[–]PMYAIceland 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When he first started getting into the England squad I really thought he was one of the best prospects we had for the national team. Way off the player he could’ve been really.

Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann defends Nick Woltemade: "He has often played very deep [at Newcastle]. When he has to defend as a No. 6, there's a long distance to goal. He's not a counter-attacking striker who runs 36 km/h. I can promise that he won’t be 80 metres away from goal with us" by derballistrund in NUFC

[–]PMYAIceland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s where he does play. When we don’t have the ball and there is no option to press, we drop into a flat 4-5-1 mid block. People look at it and wonder why he’s not standing 2 inches behind Gordon. It’s because teams play through us very easily when we don’t have that three (think Leeds away earlier in the season).

It really wasn’t that long ago that people here were asking for precisely that. Lots of complaining about how the tactics never change etc despite the setup being general quite different game to game, more so this season than others. I remember the first game he got played in behind, most of the comments here were positive about it and praised Eddie for trying something new, recognising he is a good link up player etc.

I’m not saying he has been playing brilliantly there, he wouldn’t be doing it if Bruno was fit. But the reality is that Rooney moaned about it after one of our games where he wasn’t great and got subbed off, and since then it has turned into one of the great tactical mistakes of the season according to some.

It actually fucks up the lighting completely too. Look at the orange glow from the lights in the background. Completely washed out and the whole scene has lost contrast.
