How important was this tackle last night?

I think it comes down to personal preference... Once Wilson career at Newcastle is done, he will be number 1 post Shearer, because of how we will feel about him.

I'd also say that for around 6 months Andy Carroll was outrageous.

It is but I always think injury records should be included.

Martins got 17, in one season? Didn't think he got that many.

Best seasons: Ba: 16 Remy 14 Cisse 13 Pretty damning how shit we were for such a long time.

I always thought Remy was more naturally gifted than Ba/Cisse/Wilson, he was more similar to Isak, graceful across the pitch. His time at the club is largely tainted by the way he arrived and the way he left. That's not to say he was "better" because you've got to actually produce over a period of time. I think Ba and Wilson are the most rounded players. Cisse offered too little aside from his goals.

He's just very good at everything. He's pretty quick He's really strong on the ball He can hold it up well He's excellent with his head He's a poacher He will also try the spectacular from time to time (arsenal attempt last year, spurs away, Everton away). He's really good at pressing He can play in a 2 or on his own He's ice cold at one on ones and penalties He's driven to be number 1 (see his competition with Isak) He's an experienced shithouse And he's also fucking gorgeous.

We've conceded 10 fewer goals than "title chasing" Arsenal and lost the same number of games. what a fucking season.

Let's sit back, relax and let Eddie work it out.

Sheffield Wednesday? Murphy was also shite, Isak even struggled. It was ages ago. Although, I'm interested in exploring other options.

Pope Trippier Schar Botman Burn Bruno Joelinton Anderson Miggy Isak Wilson Seems fine to me. In fact, I think we may see a great performance from Anderson.

Gordon would be a better bet. In fact, I'm convinced he will end up there eventually.

Probably one of the soundest, well informed, content creators knocking about.

Just play Anderson. He's ready.

I was negative about today until this morning, then I got a feeling... Then Brightons team sheet came out and my confidence grew.... Then we started unbelievably well. Should have been a few up.... When they got the 1 back I thought "here we go"... Then an odd calmness descended, despite the commentary wanting a Brighton equaliser, I never felt it was coming.... Then I didn't celebrate Wilsons goal because I was convinced he was offside... Then the elation of the 4th when it was all over... This club, these players and this manager....

Goal difference over Liverpool... keep a clean sheet.

No I was wondering who their best player was. Wasn't sure to whom you were referring.

Brighton have done class to be where they are like. With due respect, their first 11 looks average... until you watch them play.

??

Must say, I admire that Howe is his own man. The amount of times I'd have gone a different way and he's proved me wrong. Joelinton came back from his ban against Man Utd and left him on the bench. Howe has balls.

I feel a cunt for feeling so entitled.

Now ya talking.

And don't even tell me you wouldn't...

I see your Rachel and raise you..
