1) Iaquinta was our best striker, he ran had a few counter attacks, but shot most out, but he just came back from an injury
2) Newcastle start their season in 2 weeks, so its natural that their fitness is going to be better, its only natural. Considering they start on the 11th of August and we just started pre-season, we did quite well.
3) the score did not reflect the match, we had much better chances, we played fluently, we gave them scares, we just weren't deadly infront of goal.
4) I don't know why Ranieri let Nedved play the whole game, i would have replaced him with ADP and gone to a 4-3-3 formation.
5) Zebina made two mistakes in the whole game, and those two mistakes led to goals. Molinaro played quite shitty IMO and made quite a few mistakes. Keep Giorgio, he is much better
6) Andrade is a rock, nothing got past him, he made absolutely no mistakes, he was one of our best players.
7) Grygera does not seem comfortable in the middle, he was making mistakes, due to fitness, but still i believe we should still buy another CB.
8) Trezeguet was quite quiet but he managed to get some shots away which made Given work.
9) Marchionni was impressive, always running, taking on defenders, crossing, shooting. If his aim was better goals would have happened cause of him.
10) Buffon did not have much to do, and the goals where not his fault. The penalty was always going to be hard, and Carroll's goal was unlucky, as gigi made a great save from Martins and pushed it to the side, as he is supposed to, but unfortunately there was carroll who was running in
11) Milner is Newcastle's best player and i believe he could replace Nedved cause he fights for every ball, never gives up, has high stamina, is good on either foot and has a good shot
