And there is the deserved equaliser 

Spurs have played well second half, beating the press quite well

He loves a performance against Man U

His first big performance in midfield was against Man U, guess he likes to pay tribute to that (we'll ignore the league cup final)

Coping strategies being deployed. “It’s not NUFC anymore it’s Saudi FC”, “pressure all on them” 

I do agree all the pressure is on us, we should be beating them as we are levels above

Get in, quality goal 

Gil needed to play Son in immediately, would have been able to get a shot off

Spurs playing well the last 5-10 mins, getting into dangerous positions 

Haaland with a sitter, damn

From a Newcastle perspective?

Aye, we aren't finishing above City so I'd rather the likes of Villa, Spurs, Man U to drop points

Poor from Ederson

Ffs

That was a brilliant counter attack

We're currently 3rd in the 23/24 co-efficients so unless Belgium keeps up what they're doing (they're 1st), we're on track.

And I'm sure in most seasons we finish 1st or 2nd

Helps we have more teams that tend to get further in the competitions

This fixture could do with an early City goal 

If City can beat Spurs then it's been a decent weekend for us

Gained 3 points on Man U and Brighton, gained 2 points on Villa

Whilst Liverpool losing would have been nice, realistically they along with Arsenal/City will finish ahead of us

Apologies if already confirmed itt but is it a replay if its a draw? 

 

Obviously we'll batter the fuckers, but just curious

Yeah, replays are there

Next season they are talking about removing replays

I presume with it being away there won't be VAR?

We have Liverpool away (Monday) and City at home (Saturday) either side of this game but at least there is a slightly normal amount of break

Wow, finally happened 

Preferred a home draw but we'll take it

Yeah, I'm not sure about him playing further forward.

He absolutely could do it at a decent level but he's clearly so good at being a full back I don't see the reason for him to push forward.

There's usually two reasons a full back ends up further forward, their attacking game (shooting, passing, crossing) is elite and/or their defensive game isn't that good. 

That doesn't apply to Livramento. I think he remains a full back and a bloody class one at that.

Agree. He did some turns in the middle of the park that were outrageous. Link up play was fantastic. 

There was one in particular where he spun Maguire, he left him in no man's land

I thought he was really good when dropping deep, either retained possession well and dragged their defenders out or managed to turn them 

He's brilliant, just hope he can stay injury free

They seem to trust him a lot more. In his first game he was overlooked a lot.

Yeah, noticed this too 

Had a quick check and tonight he had 52 touches, completing 36 out of 40 passes

Against Chelsea he had 38 touches, completing 25 out of 29 passes 

As a team we had similar amount of possession (416 passes Vs Chelsea and 432 Vs Man U)

So the stats show he's on the ball a bit more, which supports the eye test that he's being trusted more and rightly so, as he's mostly making the right choice when he gets it

He was brilliant today (I mean he's always brilliant) but the way he just kept carving them open

Gutted he didn't quite have his shooting boots on 

That was his best game for us, so composed, excited to see how far he can really go

He's always played with confidence but when you more than hold your own away to PSG then it's bound to have given him an extra boost and that was evident tonight 

Been the better side by some distance, played some lovely stuff but unfortunately we haven't taken the lead

And the longer it stays like this they'll come into it more with their options off the bench

Heckingbottom was seemingly under pressure a month or so back, has done nothing since 

The result today was awful, be surprised if he's still in a job come Monday afternoon
