Pata

If he just goes through him from behind it's a yellow if he's anywhere near the ball. So stupid using your hands like that.

Cunha would be great to have in the squad (no dickhead policy though?) but if we signed him there’s no way we could afford a purple RW too. Murphy has been class but another summer without an established RW signed would be instantly classed as disastrous.

That's not a pen, changed absolutely nothing.

BOOM

Bright start from Stoke and Partey's shoulders are only getting warmed up.

Stunning save. So much power on that shot that most goalies would concede even if they get their hand on it.

Wonder if that would mean teams would just sit deeper and watching a parked bus is rarely entertaining.

Amazing

That Martin has been putting in ridiculous balls for 15 minutes now.

What a save!

Are you a psychic?

Can't stand that hand movement after a clear foul, van Dijk is the worst for it.

Not every signing like this will be like Minteh but one hit covers a lot of failures. Also £3m and on low wages, we could still be making money out of him if he has a breakout season.

We know Bruno and Tonali are good enough for this club. Willock has been struggling for form for two years now and is one of our few non-crucial assets that someone might actually buy. He wasn't the worst today but IMO once again did nothing to prove we should try to keep him.

I would be amazed if there isn't a bookie offering Newcastle top 5 yes or no. You could also offer people the chance to bet on us to make it at an exchange like Betfair.
