Newcastle Fan

This game was there for the taking and he puts on Emil Krafth to replace Manquillo with 10 minutes to go.

The performance today is a good Joelinton performance, which considering how incredibly the bar has been set for him is still not good enough for this league, he does a lot of things right but the minute we get into the final third he shits himself, similar to Almiron who has been doing the same since he joined, ASM is the only one who attacks with real intent.

The good thing with Barcelona is that they have a proper academy so even if you merge some of the youngsters with the more experienced players the team is still going to be able to win games and compete for titles.

So we are not going to give the Parody signing his own thread?

I thought he was doing quite well there? they seem to be a bit struggling at the moment.

The Season only started last week and we are already in crisis, in a relegation battle and got knocked out of a cup, this guy does it like no other

I honestly think he doesn't even bother analysis the other teams and how they would play, he just decides what team he wants to put out and puts them there and hopes for the best.

He waited a long time for his chance and he got it when the team looks completely out of shape and focus (obviously because of the manager), like Toney and Armstrong i feel like if he leaves us he's going to find himself as a key player in another club in a few years.

Ivan Toney got man of the match, he dominated the Arsenal defense today, Arsenal are starting to remind me of how we play when we are on a bad period, the players show up and play pretend football, any team who is a bit aggressive and wants to win more takes the three point from them. As for Brentford i'm happy for them, not sure if the rest of their season will be this good but at least tonight will be a night they won't forget.

Its a great signing for both us and him, he fits well into our system but i just hope we don't put too much expectations on the kid, he was one of the best players in the league towards the end of last season but he still has a lot to learn and hopefully he will continue to produce once he joins us permanently.

He Had quite a few chances to impress on loan but failed to take any, even with the reserves i remember him being utter shit when they played Sunderland in the Papa Johns Cup.

Not too bothered with him leaving as at times he looked good and at times he looked quite shite, but he left us with that amazing comeback against Everton to remember him with so fair play.

Literally "heading" to the semi final.

Looking at how Var and the general standard of officiating has been in the Euros it really tells you where the problem is, it's nothing with the rules or VAR as much as its how incompetent the people in charge of applying them are in the EPL

Donnarumma also heading to PSG, good move for them but i must say Keylor Navas is the most disrespected goalkeeper in recent times, won 3 champions league with Real Madrid while they were trying to get rid of him, went to PSG and massively improved them and yet they sign someone to replace him.

Football has been a sport for more than 120 years and they still can't sort the offside rule out

15 players were released: Owen Bailey, Lewis Brannen, Tai Ebanks, Ludwig Francillette, Lucas Gamblin, Josh Gilchrist, Josh Harrison, Florent Indalecio, Oliver Marshall, Tom Midgley, George Rounsfell, Kyle Scott, Jude Swailes, Yannick Toure and Oliver Walters.

The club's current state is a perfect reflection of those supporting it to be honest, nothing more than they deserve.

I actually like that they don't want to wear the silver medals, that's the sort of mentality you need, imagine our lot having anything similar to that

I said that after he won the world cup but surely Kante should get the Ballon d'or at some point?

Kante is an unbelievable player, it's feels like you got 12 men on the field with him playing because he plays for two in midfield.

Main reason i'm able to watch us is because of him, i don't know if i will be able to watch if he leaves us as we are completely diffrent without him in the side.

Burak Yilmaz has to be one of the strangest signings that somehow worked, 35 year old striker on a free from the turkish league rand he (hopefully) leads them to a league title win against the PSG of Neymar and Mbappe

Lille players have been running non stop in this first half but only got the one goal to show for it, if they don't get another soon they are running a major risk in the second half.

It's really amazing how well he's played with us, i remember seeing him in his league debut which was against us at SJP and thinking this lad won't make it very far. but he's been one of the best PL loan signings i've ever seen. Lets see if he can build on his loan spell or was this just another Papiss Cisse scenario
