If Leicester win, I think that's them just about up.

Could really do with Chelsea taking a psychological hit.

How is this 1-0?

Chelsea have looked dangerous mind. Certainly see more goals.

Chelsea getting beat is good. We need them to at least draw a couple of games.

My favourite current player. He's also been our player of the season, by some distance I might add. We've had Evertons pants down, which makes the story all the more sweeter.

He promised his mates in Milan that he would come back with a big cup.

Isn't it weird that I can tell its an Italian dude just by the chinos and, what I assume is a black polo neck, tucked into it. Reckon if you'd showed me that photo, with no context I could have guessed which player it was. What do we reckon for footwear? My guess would be brown shoes with no socks.

When people say "we need this, we need that", that's all entirely dependant on your expectations for next season. I'm wanting/expecting us to push for top 4 again and there is a strong argument to say that we weren't far off this year, if it wasn't for injuries and suspensions, of course. However, as we know, if you stand still.. you go backwards. From a midfield perspective, it can't be a priority. From a numbers perspective we are stacked, so even if we want to improve, it has to be a one in one out situation. Not entirely impossible, as I've said before we could get an offer for Willock, for example. Defence has to be a priority, our attacking numbers are good, our defensive numbers aren't great. We have 2 CBs out with ACLs, so it's imperative we get a CB. I'd argue LB is important. I'm sick of dancing around the position with players who are either injury prone, playing out of position or too raw. Sign a quality LB like we did with Trippier, it will transform our starting 11. Let Targett leave, get what we can. After that, we need to boost our attack. We could go any number of ways. RW, CF, it doesn't matter. Fresh blood to support what we already have.

Don't get used to that son.

I've never seen a defeat dressed as victory before. Well done Man United. What a shambles.

Comfortably the worst Man United side I've ever seen.

Which was my point. I don't want us to sign him but he's made a few people look quite silly. He's clearly a decent player...for someone.

He'd be our second top scorer. The vitriol he got was ridiculous and it shows that we have scouts that know better than some fans. Saying we can do better= fine.... but let's no re write history. That's not what happened.

That's 10 goals this season for a player N-O vehemently didn't want newcastle to sign.

Also, different competition and officials but Livramentos handball?

I'm genuinely flabbergasted. Compare man utds last week to this one? Either corruption or flat out incompetence. I think corruption is less of an insult at this stage.

How's that not handball? Has been all season.

Pickford doing a celebration then telling everyone to calm down.

You are right, aye.

On the Everton game? I've got what sounds like Warnock.

Wondering there's anything NUFC could do. Can our owners not buy the stadium and we could lease it to Gateshead. We could also use it for our Women's team and youth teams.

Our bigger concern is finishing below Man Utd and Chelsea getting a head of steam and bumping us into 8th. It's 2 from 3 IMO.... and I could quite easily see Spurs pulled into 6th or 7th too.

The only similarities between Bruno and Gallagher is that Bruno could play number 8 where Gallagher does and he'd still be twice the player. Gallagher couldn't play where Bruno does or at least anywhere near the standard required.

To be fair, the only other good reason for this thread to be bumped is seeing MA in the mud. Staveley is showing Mike how the big sharks do business.
