  1. 'This is Longstaff, steadies himself.... ball takes a very important deflection'... Jesus Christ, I'd take this from some BeIN or NBC sports commentator, but an obviously British-born football commentator really ought to know better.
  2. Commentator has no idea Anderson's come on, has called him Longstaff every time he's had the ball so far.
  3. Bruno off, Wilson off, 4-0 up... how the fuck is there still 25 minutes left
  4. Just imagine how good he'd have been with an actual quality setup..
  5. Anderson's ball control is out of this fucking world. That's Maxi-level ball movement.
  6. Willock's been effective on the left.. an option at least when Shelvey and Joelinton come back.
  7. All I heard was Leno shouting 'WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?' at Wilson who was like 20 yards away from him
  8. I bet there's a parallel universe where we're stuck with Grealish and Almiron's ouput for Man City is bigger than Mahrez
  9. Got a soft spot for Longstaff, so pleased for him.
  10. Leaked photos have revealed the double-edged secret to Almiron's greatest strength and weakness
  11. Hly shit, Almiron is the definition of a stopped clock Absolutely bang on once or twice a season haha
  12. I'm going to put my tinhat on and say that I think Shelveys's defensive work in the past 12 months, especially since Howe has come in, is criminally underrated. Off the ball he's been very busy and putting a foot in. He's not Joelinton or Bruno at winning it back, but the harrying is all that's needed to not be a burden to the team when he's got those 2 working with him. Personally I'd like to see Joelinton sitting in front of the defence, his ball carrying and outlet passing is top rate. With Bruno and someone decent in front, this could work well. But without a good offensive midfielder next to Bruno, Shelvey at the 6 allows Bruno to play the 8 and this just plays to everybody's strengths and preferences. Not sure about Shelvey in front of Joelinton though, Shelvey needs time on the ball, he usually has to look at and find his pass whilst in possession, unlike Bruno who knows where he's putting it before he receives it.
  13. Weird, they took down the video? Was embedded in my post earlier this page.
  14. I regularly have to check the locks on my wife's restraints, she's always trying to get back over there.
  15. They're hardly going to give him a grilling, he's only 19 and just making his break through into the first team. I doubt he's been media training that long either.
  16. https://www.itv.com/news/tyne-tees/2022-09-21/fake-newcastle-united-strips-worth-thousands-seized-after-airport-search dhgate anyone?
  17. Bruno, Mayor of Tyneside. I like it.
  18. Sorry, but there's no way you can convince me that putting Burn into our first XI ahead of Maxi is a good idea To me it's quite simple, you've got 90% of it - Pope Schar Botman Trippier Targett Shelvey Bruno Joelinton Isak Maxi Wilson
  19. Maxi, Isak and Wilson up top has 3 players that can actually put the ball in the net at the PL level. You compare that to recently Isak + any 2 other senior players on our squad, it's no wonder we're not scoring. It'll be night & day with those 2 back.
  20. Him behind Wilson would be interesting Something like ------------Pope---------------- Trips - Schar - Botman - Targett -------------Shelvey------------ -------Bruno-----Joelinton----- --------------------------ASM-- ----<--Isak-->------------------ -----------------Wilson---------
