Can folk share the missing persons tweet/Facebook post please?

Best thing for them is fucking Palace off and signing a cheaper (and hopefully better) equivalent.

But ultimately, you have to compare seasons to understand where your own strengths and weaknesses are and that of others. Tactically, you won't know how other teams plan to set up etc. So that is the great unknown. Adding Guehi (or similar) allows us to move to a very solid back 3 with more advanced wing backs in Hall, Kelly (?) and Tino without even considering Trippier if we get another season out of him. Our CM is very solid, with Tonali, Bruno and Joelinton without even considering Willock or Longstaff. Willock could also be deployed on a wing and we have Barnes, Gordon and Miggy all for there too. If we get Wilson fit ( ) perhaps even Isak plays out there with Wilson centrally. We're both talking IFs and buts ultimately.

As a side note, Palace are absolute whoppers.

It's not the issue folk are making it out to be. If we add Guehi and get Schar and Botman back. We'll be fine.

Just had a look and we scored 85 - so 2.2 goals per game (rounded down). Scoring goals isn't our issue.

I honestly don't see the worry or clamour for RW. If we shore up our defence, we'll be fine. We scored goals for fun last season we just conceded far too many.

Sensationalist language to catch the eye or ear as always. I'm sick of transfer windows. Sky spoiled it in about 2009 along with Mike Ashley.

Yeah, sorry mate, but I was raging at Longstaff for going down like a complete fanny and trying to con the ref' when it was quite clearly never a pen. It's the worst part of his game tbh, and I'm a Longstaff fan.

I really don't get this keeper situation.

Hope we get through here then get a big 6 club and kick the fuck out them in the third round and win. This competition proving how bent it's all becoming. Time to stick it to the man.

Hey Sandro Sandro Italiano Hey Sandro Sandro Italiano Hey Sandro Sandro Italiano Sandro, big Jo and wor Bruno Up the Premier League we go Hey Sandro!

Decent start result wise. Get 3 points next Saturday and that's a strong start.

This looks nowhere near his shoulder to me like.

Aye, it isn't unreasonable to suggest we haven't had a great summer, I agree. I just think it's also not as doom and gloom as folk make out.

Have to remember that last season we only finished 8 points from 4th in a season where we had key players out all season. Just had a look and if we scored around 6 more goals across 4 or 5 fixtures we'd have been 4th. Fine margins really. With Tonali back and certain positions bolstered from a squad perspective (albeit not the first 11 being improved upon) I feel we have a healthy chance of being in with a shout of top 4. My expectancy is between 4th and 7th but I really do think we're capable fo top 4 if we gather momentum. We really need that siege mentality though and w should absolutely have it, we're being dicked by shite rules that restrain us. That first game was horrific refereeing and we won a game with 10men in the PL after playing for 65mins with one less man. Tonali will be huge for us I reckon too.

I just feel like the sense of entitlement is lifting. Not sure where it has come from as Newcastle fans or even of it's a societal thing. Social media has become the pits. Folk just wanting to fight each other and wind folk up all the time. Just using freedom of speech like a beacon of excuse for twattery. Oh and I'm off on one.

Why anyone as a Newcastle fan or Geordie would slate Dan Burn is beyond me. He encapsulates what being a Newcastle fan is for much of its community. He represents this city. Just as Sean Longstaff does (and others) and I'm proud of how they represent people like me.

Dan Burn is a fantastic representative of Newcastle and Newcastle United. He's put in some amazing shifts since signing and the shit he gets online is absolutely fucking absurd. If anything, Eddie Howe fucked up leaving him so exposed at Left Back, and I love Eddie Howe. Everyone seems desperate to hate on folk online. Bizarre.

Really hope we grind out 4 points in the next two league games and get through the league cup to silence all the online negativity like personally. I'm not saying it's not warranted but just gets very tiresome very quickly for folk like me.

Tin hat here - but I don't really feel that arsed about new signings personally yi kna. I actually think we'll have a much better season for being out of Europe and with Tonali back and hopefully a fit bill of health across the squad I reckon we'll do some damage flying under the radar. What fucks me off more is the absolutely farcical FFP/PSR/whatever new fucking acronym they've made up to prevent us competing financially is thrown up and at us and also the fact we're having to consider the potential of moving from SJP simply to maximise revenue to get around said acronyms ASAP. Soul feels like it's gonna be sucked from the club and we're not even gonna bear the fruits of allowing that to happen. Football is so fucked in this country man. Disgraceful.
