Kanj

needs to get isak in there ffs. Our new mackem slayer.

ice cold finisher, he’s scoring the only chances he’s getting which is worth a multiple or two on just his base value.

Can’t stress how much I love this player.

i need video of this

Isak, #14. Forever.

Perfect right footed cross by Mig

Miley needs to bust a gut playing def, awful defending backing off too

We need to change our midfield shape

I’d have one of the 8s sitting man. We can’t let them get a head of steam by playing between midfield

Brunoooooo

Always find it wild that Trips and Pickford are closest mates in the England setup

Longstaff’s runs

Our cross field ground passing is often so tamely hit. Annoying.

Joelinton off

Miggy would murder the championship

Longstaff really does my head in with his complete lack of grasping a chance

So many missing screws in Joey Barton’s brain. Seriously needs to go away. He’s not relevant. Nobody gives a shit about what he has to say and he’s an embarrassment.

yah you’re probably right — just thinking sorta in theory.

Depends on where we finish and who comes in for him. He’s absolutely world class in my eyes but he also has a very good thing going for him here.

Firmino was the poster for a pressing forward who contributed to all types of play and kept things going. Firmino with Isak and Gordon as wide forwards would be hella interesting.

Succession planning should always be something the sporting director has a view towards. You can’t be left with no options should a manager unexpectedly leave his post for a new job or be sacked.

mate it’s actually painfully tight: let’s just assume Tonali wasn’t betting, Barnes stays fit just for the baseline and 4 results are different this season. Liverpool (h): Bruno doesn’t attempt a trivella at half field and Liverpool never get a second Nunez blaster to steal all 3. +1 point. West Ham (a): Team doesn’t push up late and ball is kicked to the corner flag. Kudus never gets that shot. +2 points Everton (a): Trippier doesn’t cough the ball, we hold on for a draw. +1 point Forest (h): We hold on at 1-0 at half time and see game out. +3 points ^^ with or without the Liverpool point we are at 36 or 35 points and we’re in 6th place. I’m ignoring Wolves (a) and Luton (a) for this argument. * assume VAR doesn’t rob us in Paris, out of no where. We’re still in CL knockout phase. * assume Trippier doesn’t cough up late in the energy drink cup and we’re in the semifinal. All of this is to say, as horrendous as the last month or two have been at times, you can point to 5 to 7 incidents that seem like absolute horrible luck and clinical punishment that has altered our season.

because when we’re on a bad run of form, classic Newcastle support is everything is wrong and blame needs to be pointed. It’s fucking childish, it’s stupid and it’s insanity.

Of which, in our case, we had no system in place, no hierarchy, no back office teams, bare bones in every single department, no cohesion whatsoever. Building it essentially from the ground up. *just wait until the pile-on that it was actually and still actually is Tony Bloom's doing at Brighton.

Ashworth is the latest scapegoat now. Well done N-O.
