From what I've listened to, they have barely looked like scoring and scored a lucky goal, if we keep doing what we were doing we will be fine.

Shelvey off at HT please.

Sels still probably the worst player ?

Findlay? Who the f**k is that guy?

Obviously not risking Murphy, so not many other options.

Makes it a bit more interesting, heard good things about El-Mhanni.

Hope we go nowhere near him anyway, regardless of price he is so average.

If we got him in we could probably get away without signing a CM this window, he would be brilliant at this level.

Wouldn't be surprised if it is true, however didn't Benitez get written guarantees in his contract over transfer policy? Plus if Ashley was to do something like this, there is surely no way even he would be stupid enough to do it at this point in this season considering what is at stake? If he made Rafa walk away that would be him finished in terms of making anything from us.

He's a massive upgrade on anyone in our squad and much better than the likes of Cleverley or Downing, I think he would be brilliant at this level and like others have said get promoted and worry about anything else afterwards.

We are playing away and have just been relegated and lost 3 players to injury in this game alone. So much entitlement on here at the moment. Or we are playing Brentford and we should be trying to beat teams likes this if we want to go up? We've got Colback and Gouffran in midfield you absolute melon. We've had Colback and Gouffran in midfield all season, we could still have a go at beating Brentford

The good old days. http://4c2lgc59e181vuma1n9bmo1c.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/assets/steve-mcclaren-mouth-open-newcastle-united-nufc-650x400.jpg ?

Our away performances have mimicked this all season tbh, the difference is we have managed to hold on. We score and completely sit back.

Massively concerning, it's not as if we are playing half decent sides, we are more often than not being outplayed by ridiculously poor teams and some of the worst in the division.

?

Who else could go in? Anita, a youth player, anyone who hasn't constantly been our worst player and cost us games.

The starting 11 isn't much better.

The team ?

Mccarthy would be a poor signing, would provide zero creativity and offers nothing but giving free kicks away. Everton fans are pretty desperate to get rid which should tell you everythig. Obviously he is better than Colback but if we are judging a player by that then we could pretty much sign anyone.

That we haven't what we are doing yet even though we are pretty desperate for players.

A little concerning.... George Caulkin 1h George Caulkin ‏@CaulkinTheTimes Plenty of irons in the fire for #Nufc - winger + midfielder the targets - but yet to decide whether loans/fees make most sense this month.

Another poor display without any creativity, unless someone is signed in time, if not cant see us getting a win. 1-0 Brentford.

You've seen all his performances for Bolton this season, I take it? No I saw all his performances for us and that was more than enough. A few decent performances in league one should not make up for how bad he was every time he played for us. eh.. last time he played for us was May 2015 Players improve. In that time he has been rubbish for Cardiff in the championship, and did ok for Bolton in league one. He has proven he isn't good enough for us time and again.

Sammy Ameobi?
