  1. Where is the best place to buy NUFC clobber for bairns?
  2. Very good chance Man Utd lose their next two away to an in-form Palace and Arsenal IMO. 3 points vs Brighton at SJP and the game at Old Trafford could be of less consequence.
  3. There is understandable scepticism about its credibility as a stat but the xG for the game must have been monstrous.
  4. Would be insane/fantastic after the (relative) depths of this season to finish only two places off last year's finish 5th feels far with the games remaining.

    Sean Longstaff

    Hopefully get some reasonable coin for him this summer.
  6. Great win. Could have been a cricket score. Watched it with my littlest on telly, he is clearly the team's lucky charm, has an absolutely cracking record.
  7. An exciting end of season in store. Need to pay better than recently to stand a chance.
  8. A draw would be a decent result IMO. No injuries and some minutes for Joelinton before the Man Utd game in a few weeks would be good too.
  9. The difference a few world class players can make is astounding. Had countless examples this season (and been on the wrong end of this equation for many years prior). Isak, Bruno and Gordon* have really carried the team through this season with their quality. They've had inconsistent support around them from players of varying quality - but their presence on the field has been determinative of outcomes in our favour so often. Depth etc is important (as we've seen this year!) but targeting high end starters can mask so much. Think Liverpool are a good example of this too to some extent IMO, but they also have more depth. * - Gordon is probably "bloody good" rather than world class, but he's a few tiers above the majority of players in the league. Would prefer a few top class players rather than lots of good players/projects this summer. The ceiling is so much higher.
  10. Why are Chelsea complaining? They seem like such puerile knobs.
  11. Cracking end to Klopp's tenure this.
  12. Didn't miss a classic it looks like. Still in reasonable position to make a European push.
  13. Such a weird penalty shootout Included some horrors.
  14. Can't believe we didn't score.
  15. I'm a bit surprised Arsenal invested so much in their CL tie with Bayern.

    Alexander Isak

    His average minutes per goal ratio this season must be crackers.
  17. I actually have a lot of time for Ange Postecoglu but would be great to have 'cautionary tale' trending on Twitter
  18. Aye, fallen love with his graft/skill last few games. Smart player.
  19. Who is the last player Newcastle had who you could say was incontrovertibly world class? ISAK.
  20. Huge game this. Feels like the kinda game that could carry momentum over into next season and set the dynamic between ourselves and Spurs - even with the injuries. Hope it's competitive.
  21. Anyone got CL highlights? chappelle.jpg
