Manchester United 0 - 2 Newcastle United Tottenham Hotspur 1 - 2 Newcastle United Arsenal 0 - 2 Newcastle United Those would be canny results across an entire season, never mind in a week. Unbelievable turnaround. Hats off to him.

I can think of a reason… Jokes aside, he’s a Rolls Royce of a midfielder.

Farewell, Martin. Great keeper, on his day. Can leave with his head held high.

Sad seeing Dubravka that emotional. 😔

5-5-0 has to be a wind up formation to get in Arteta’s head.

It’s too early to be this deep.

Ah right, I get your point. Sorry, mis-read and thought something terrible was about to happen. Ashley-era hangover still going strong.

What's that?

Does anyone really buy training wear because they want to be relevant? I've bought a few pieces, but only when I liked it generally and would use it for footy. I'd say money grab if we had another home kit or away kit second half of the season, but training wear I don't have the slightest issue with. Seems a sensible way to boost revenue mid-season.

Ah, that's right. I remember that being mentioned. Still a weird, weird disparity.

Not as far as I know. Joelinton got his 5th booking against Leicester, played against Brentford in the cup mid-week, then was suspended against Ipswich because the suspension was for the league. Now I'm assuming that's changed since Pope got sent off in the league and missed the EFL cup final, but this season anyway that's looking like how it works.

Doesn't sound like he's happy about it, then.

I don't think so. He had five yellows in the league so missed Spurs. And he got two yellows in Carabao so misses Arsenal first leg.

The difference his distribution makes is phenomenal. I’d be playing him in goal every week, if I knew we weren’t gonna be facing many shots.

It was Tonali wasn’t it?

Former youth player Michael Newberry (left NUFC in 2018, had been playing for Cliftonville in Northern Ireland) has died suddenly at the age of 27. RIP https://www.bbc.com/sport/articles/c8ew80ze410o

Pretty disgusting. Leaving aside NUFC bias, the transfer window isn't open FFS.

Because someone had the audacity to score against them early. Which is extremely dramatic and we should all be shocked as plucky Liverpool fight back against the odds showing their immense talent once more.

Have to hold my hands up. I really thought the wheels had fallen off the wagon a month or two ago, and didn't see how he was going to turn it around. He has, and credit to him. Especially since it appears he's done so by utilising Tonali in a number 6, which is a position he doesn't like to use. So he's adapted, and you have to credit that. I was wrong. I'm glad I was wrong.

He’s on a mission.

That’s a relief! Was referring to their Live Text, probably didn’t make that clear haha.

BBC Sport’s online coverage of all matches today has basically just been asking why Isak hasn’t gone to Arsenal yet, with some small interruptions when there’s a goal in any match.

Wonderful piece to watch. What a brave, inspirational guy.

They're as close to identical as it's possible to be. Red card for the Newcastle player, yellow card for the Manchester United player. That's how it works.

Sick of shite like this, mind.
