Was a tap-in too *clicks fingers*

Wouldn't want him anywhere near the club for a variety of reasons - main one being that he's utterly finished at PL level.

#announceBeale Be just the boost the fans need

These fouls are thick as fuck. Playing directly into their hands

Should have just rotated his squad earlier in the season then. Simple

More injuries were always going to be inevitable of your playing big games every 3 or 4 days for a few weeks of the bounce. The lack of options off the bench means the starting XI carry the weight until we get a few back. It's just shit timing that as soon as we get one or 2 back the ones who've run through walls for the club can't carry on and we're left in the same position. It's not Howe's fault but it's going to be like this for another couple of months and w just need to try and make the best of it. Pointing fingers and dishing the blame out is needless and pointless, they all need support as they're all clearly doing everything they can for the club. Some just want to twist on 21

No idea what he was even trying to do there. Never seen a tackle like that since Schumacher's hip-check in the 80s

You know what I mean though. The timing of it is the unlucky part Not sure what more could have been done though. Give him the rest he needs and the defence looks weak as fuck, play him constantly and he inevitably pings his hammy. Rock and a hard place

That's Schar done for a month. This is fucking unbelievable like. It's just bad luck and injuries happen but this is unlike anything I've ever known at this club. Just fuck clean off man

Sums them up perfectly, willing to go to the ends of the earth to have a pop at Newcastle but a constant, stubborn refusal to actually get behind their own team. This is the mental millstone around their scrawny necks and it's been this way for decades

So today, correct me if I've missed anything out here, they've managed to: acquire Michael Beale as their new manager who is already trending on twitter before they actually announce it, cave in and let 6000 Newcastle fans watch the derby, Turf their own season ticket holders out in the process, Allow said Newcastle fans hospitality seats and Block anti-Newcastle banners from being displayed AFTER they've already paid for them What a day man

The Trust Fund kid has done them a massive favour there mind in vetoing that heap of shit. Imagine wasting your only shot at having a genuine pop at the Saudis and coming up with that fucking drivel man Football fans would have been ripping their own skeletons out cringing so hard. If you're going to have a dig at them then at least put in more than 10 minutes of time and make it meaningful and/or intelligent, they're so fucking useless

They know their place, they've bent the knee as requested

Wonder who they go for to replace him in the summer?

I'd settle for that. Thought they may actually end up with someone decent, never mind.

Not even sure what to say after that tbh. I'm fucking furious. Had it all in the palms of our hands and proceeded to throw the cunt away. We make it 2-0 and the essentially give up and we finish 2nd and qualify. We then choose to concede, then shit our collective pants and lose the game. It's fucking amateurish and it puts us out of Europe completely. I'm 100% behind Howe and the club but that shit tonight was embarrassing. To throw that away from the position we were in is criminal, it's pigshit

One more wins it for us, don't think Milan have any guts to claw it back out they go 2 down, they already know they're essentially fucked as it is, the towel will come in if we score next. We've been largely excellent so far but the game in dortmund will do it's own thing, we've got no control over that

Any idea why Dortmund are so big, and PSG odds on too tbh, tonight? Dortmund are 27/10 and PSG are 17/20. Can't see Dortmund rolling over at home when a point wins the group. Are PSG now like the CL version of Keyser Soze and protected from up on high or something?

Liverpool A West Ham A Villa H He fucks those 3 up and he's got to be fucked and rightly so. They'll be out of all European competitions and 1 domestic Cup as well as probably into mid-table by Xmas despite all of the cash spent

To finish rock bottom of this group has got to be seen as a complete failure, surely? Winning only 1/6 against the likes of Copenhagen and Gala? Really? Pigshit

Ooooof, pick that fucker out

Dubravka has gone from 'experienced' to 'old' within a fortnight tbh. He's looked really poor against Everton and Spurs, he wasn't alone but if he's carrying any kind of knock then Karius has to be the better option until January

Shaw's off with a hammy and Slabhead's done his groin. #barebones

Bayern have several more gears in hand here, they're in control mode, auto-pilot stuff. Just ticking over without throwing too much into it, they're a class above

Nasty little cunt Garnacho like. Knew exactly what he was doing there
