Ronaldo

He obviously can’t be trusted to play yet. Let’s be honest, there’s nothing in his career to suggest he’s a PL player yet and Eddie sees him train every day so I’m not sure how you can criticise the decision to leave him on the bench. You can criticise the decision to sign him as effectively our backup striker, obvs.

Really difficult to know exactly what to make of that game. Some very good stuff and also some bad stuff - the latter due to a few poor individual performances. But a great result and we’re now averaging the points tally per game I think it’ll take for CL football. Huge credit to Eddie.

It’ll be Schar and Botman eventually. Burn has been very good overall to be fair.

This is still going on?

Knutsford is Liverpool and Everton players with an only a couple of City players to be fair.

And Darras Hall where at least 12 of our players live is outside the Newcastle city limits. Clearly multimillionaire footballers are going to live in the nicest areas with the most mansions.

Shooting is a good idea. I don’t think he can be arsed to dive all that much.

Come on. We’re a club trying to qualify for Europe.

He’s way above of Hatem in terms of ability to influence games, which is the only ability that matters.

Actually most of the Man U and Man City players live in Hale and Bowdon, Altrincham. Both of which are in Greater Manchester. Liverpool players you’re right, most of them live on the Greater Manchester / Cheshire border. Loads of them in Knutsford.

In what position?

When will he be ready then? After a 20 minute cameo back end of Spurs game?

Surely Botman is ready. Kelly is at decent a best player with the potential to be solidly mediocre but he’ll be all over the shop against Spurs.

Happy new year to you too.

Still the best defender around with a Tonali in front of him. 2 more years please.

Every single one of us was thinking the same so leave him alone.

I have nothing but affection for you, you know that.

I’ve lived in Manchester for 15 years. Plenty of really good people in their support.

What a brilliant December and huge credit to Eddie and the team. Man U are abysmal mind. Just a terrible side and I feel a bit for their true fans - the real ones, not the fake arseholes who troll on here.

That Leicester keeper is on the take, mind.

Some cheating going on in this one.

It wasn’t his decision not to come here.

Loved that second half. Patient but always dangerous.

Bench looks a bit weak doesn’t it. Good starting Xl.

It’s pretty much common sense to say Isak has more to his game, mind. That’s not to say he’s as good a goal scorer - that remains to be seen - but he’s a far better footballer.
