Yes. Ludicrous to blame him. Find it hard to be massively critical of a centre back fluffing it as well. Thought we deserved that like. A bit sick at the draw.

Let's not get into that conversation again. We know I was right.

Ugarte is class like. Been brilliant again today. Big hopes for that midfield. Once Trent starts making use of the space he's getting we'll be in trouble though.

Fair.

I don't know what I'm saying to be fair. Fuck Liverpool. Still expecting a hiding second half.

It's a consequence on how the other team plays. If I said to you that Newcastle thought they were good against us but in actual fact it's because we were really shit, how would that make you feel? We were shit because you were so good. We should be ahead given the chances. 3-0 (Maguire OG, Salah, Gerrard)

Could be a draw as well.

I'm fairly sure Salah has more yellow cards for taking his top off against us than we have goals at Anfield since he joined Liverpool.

You're acting like this is the first time we're going to Anfield to get pounded. 0-1 (Fernandes)

Gutted I missed a week of this. You're best removing me from the table @Magpie Too competitive to continue now.

Is this one of Kaizero's answers in a quiz?

Clear foul on Hojlund this.

To Newcastle fans, it certainly seems that way.

Think the Liverpool thread had like 700 pages as well.

RAWK.

The same posters have been complaining about it for years.

I mean, Martial ruined Liverpool on his debut as well, and in Isak's debut season Martial had a better goal and assists per 90 than him. So I don't think the performance against Liverpool carries a ton of weight when discussing his potential. £60m was a lot of money for Isak. How good he is now doesn't change that. £64m was also a lot of money for Hojlund. We paid over £20m for Amad. And Yoro for £52m is a lot of money. They're all overpays that are essential a gamble as to whether or not they'll fulfill their potential.

They do exist though, they're just not the famous Man United.

There is no comparing Isak and Hojlund in any way. Isak is miles better at this moment in time There was just a little chat about overpaying/investing in potential that's all, and I addressed people downplaying Hojlunds potential by comparing him to Isak at the same age, which IMO is a fair comparison. Do I think Hojlund could be as good as or better than Isak? Yes. Do I think he will be? No. Certainly not unless Amorim can change this shit show.

Everyone does mate, it's just whether they're big enough or not to admit it.

We're too big for that brute. There's been 60 pages in this thread since August, and only 15 in the other thread. Famous Man United and all that.

Perfectly put.

Surely if there's 234 pages it shows the thread is warranted? Also it means I won't derail other threads getting bogged down in talk about us. Most of the time anyway.

I'm only messing with you anyway Erikse, apart from the bit where I said Hojlund has been better up to the same point in their respective careers.

Of course we wouldn't, as we can't see into the future. Two years ago when Martial was outplaying Isak, we wouldn't have swapped Igahlo for him. That is, once again, hindsight.
