Jesus Christ wake the fuck up man

That's amongst the worst 15 minutes I've ever seen from a Newcastle player for Murphy. Absolutely fucking shite.

We'll turn over the scabs tomorrow

Not to the majority of teams partaking it isnt. The lesser sides of Europe should also have an opportunity to play in a European tournament. There should be a cut off though, probably by co-efficient.

Weird how there's less on offer this time. If I was going to pay a significant amount of money for a final ticket - perhaps an amount that I would only ever pay once, I don't think I'd take my shot at this fixture like.

Unless he can change things up and figure out a system that suits his players, Amorim is done. They're not going to give him the time or the money he needs to find the players that he needs to suit his particularly rigid system. They look completely and utterly lost trying to set up the way he wants and its quite obvious they dont have the players for it. He'll continue to slag off everything and everyone at Man Utd and persist with trying to jam his squarest of square pegs into round holes and then they'll fuck him off at the end of the season. They need to try and rebuild with a pragmatic manager who is able to utilise the players at his disposal, not a coach who will need the correct players to implement their philosophy. Iraola will be out of reach. Thomas Frank or Marco Silva would probably be a shout, aim for a top half finish and then crack on from there. Fuck that though, hopefully their misery continues.

Stating the obvious but this really is two poor teams like

Have to beat these lot if we are to qualify for the CL

Why is he keeping Isak on like

It might be, doesn't mean it's any less relevent. City spent over 180m in January and their new players are playing today.

Barring injuries, that'll be the last we see of Trippier starting in Newcastle shirt I'd say

59 million quid signing in January whilst the rest of the league spent fuck all.

Kieran Trippier has been finished as a footballer all season. Why the fuck is he starting against City?

Woeful from Trippier like

2 wins in 10 against PL teams for Chelsea.

Is this thanks to Keith Pattersons CAT case? Brilliant work if so

Someone one here got told off for clapping too loud the other week man

Precisely this imo. Wonder if they'll keep a select amount back for each ballot

Been saying this for weeks but surely Big Ange is going to be put out of his misery soon?

No doubt, as filmsy as that is. The town has a lot more love for Jack as opposed to Bobby for obvious reasons.

Dubravka has come in and done well in Popes absence, and whilst Pope is poor with his feet, he is a much bigger presence and pulls off better reaction/shot stopping saves. If we're going to win, we're probably going to need a big moment or two from the goalkeeper. I do wonder whether Pope would be a better option. Too much of a sacrifice of our general play? Would be very harsh on Dubravka and I don't think Howe would drop him, but I do wonder whether Pope would give us a better chance of pulling something off.

Vile set of cunts these lot like

Not sure who's better? They're clear favourites for the CL. Real Madrid perhaps but they're not having as good of a season.

Very tough ask unfortunately. They're the best team in the world. This team is capable, but the odds are very much against us.
