He’s been good recently, but I think you’re putting too much importance on ASM. We can certainly win with Joelinton / Willock down the left.

Probably, I don't think we will or should go for Rice either. Just saying while we're dreaming...

If we make the CL and we're even sniffing around the Rice level of fee/wages I'd prefer us to offer the moon to Bellingham. Send in Shearer, send in Keegan, send in a blank check.

Same, I don't know how anyone is doing the predictor thing and thinking Liverpool will catch us. Spurs also a tall task if we beat them -- it really comes down to that. (This opinion assumes Bruno stays fit. All bets are off if we lose him.)

The three stadiums Newcastle will play, which includes two of the 2026 World Cup venues: Lincoln Financial Field, home of the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles (capacity ~67,000) Mercedes Benz Stadium, home of the NFL's Atlanta Falcons and MLS's Atlanta United FC (Capacity: ~71,000) Retractable roof: Red Bull Arena, home of the MLS's New York Red Bulls (Capacity: 25,000)

As far as I can tell they’ve organized the whole thing so they are certainly taking a cut. NBC involved as the broadcast partner. I suspect if this goes well it will be a regular thing.

Playing Chelsea in Atlanta has Eales written all over it.

Update: he's home and he's working on a sign that says "I want to marry Bruno."

Choosing PSG over us / anyone is fine. I know players need to believe in themselves, but it's a total failure by him / his people to think he'd be starting every week for them.

Roughly speaking it's like playing in Newcastle then Zurich then Edinburgh in the span of six days.

The whole thing, including non-Newcastle, is in the eastern time zone. I'm guessing this was a request of the clubs involved. Newcastle does have a decent amount of travel since it's Philly > Atlanta > back up to NJ (not far from Philly). But no time changes other than to/from the UK.

People are going to freak out if we lose but we've bought ourselves a bit of a free hit here. A win and we're laughing. Win here and against Spurs and you can cue the Champions League theme.

If we sign a few of these younger potential stars being linked this summer then next season is going to be ridiculous.

Both usually. Adrenaline and drugs can carry you a long way.

You have to be extremely generous to Spurs given their form for the last 6 months to have them catch us. Doing this exercise basically solidified my belief that if we beat them at home we're very close to job done (barring disaster).

I seriously want to go to my son's school and pull him out of class to tell him. Can't wait until he gets home. Going to Philly and NJ for sure, any trainings, and stalking hotels. Let's go.

Irrationally excited. My 6 year old will lose his mind seeing Bruno in person (he better not leave).

We see time and again players whose performances suffer in a terrible team with no direction.

Much ado about nothing. He might feel like he hasn’t contributed much yet (which would be largely accurate). I’ll take a player who cares any day.

There’s still a lot of points to play for but it’s getting hard for me to imagine taking 3 points from Spurs and not finishing in the top 4, especially since they have Man Utd and Liverpool in the same week. Simple as that really.

Don’t really care as long as we win.

Really frustrating that this went from game over to game on.

A rest and the threat of Isak has woken him up.

He just read the posts on here out loud. Well done everyone.
