Andy

I keep going back and forth on whether he meant it, the reverse angle is the one for me, the technique he strikes it with looks too controlled for it to be a wild cross.

Newcastle manager dodging the "Lord Mayor's Show" cliche is almost as big an achievement as winning a cup

Can't believe Willock's muscles survived that

It's a good thing winning the cup has bought Eddie 70 minutes of grace or I'd be absolutely livid right now

Barnes should be allowed one free uppercut in that situation

Mackems digging up old posts are genuinely mental, this has tipped them over the edge. Beside, Europa Conference League is a "mickey mouse" trophy, relative to the CL, doesn't mean I wouldn't fucking love to win it and wasn't jealous of West Ham fans enjoying it a few years back. The Trophy Celebration Police in general are bizarre. I've seen this mentality on various forums. If fans can't enjoy and go completely overboard about winning a trophy, why even bother watching the sport?

Worrying

Especially considering he got absolutely no help from Salah or their midfield.

Difficult to say... D feels right at the moment, but I would've had Anderson as a D last season, and it's turned out that he's clearly a solid premier league starter having moved elsewhere. Our midfield is tough to break into. Definitely has the potential to be a high B.

Aye, I mentioned earlier in the thread that I thought Slot came across really well in defeat. Plenty of time for him to transform into a knobhead in future of course, but on Sunday he was absolutely sound.

No game in my lifetime has had "after the Lord Mayor's show" written all over it more than this one does

One of them saying "it's not that big a deal" to win the league cup though a club that has won literally nothing, ever.

Conspicuous by your absence yesterday and today, by the way.

The cracks started to show with Klopp as soon as they started losing though, even in the early days.

It may eventually be his undoing, but Slot is much more likeable than Klopp in defeat.
