  1. Goalkeeper had to do more there, he just let Neymar stroll past him.
  2. Newcastle United are looking at making a move for 25-year-old Fulham defender Antonee Robinson, who has impressed playing for the United States at the 2022 World Cup. (Teamtalk)
  3. That's awful, Messi missed with his header. Glad he saved it. It would be interesting if somebody can be bothered to see how many penalties Messi has missed. He seems to miss a lot but as a percentage I've no idea.
  4. Walker is an athlete, he's fast or was fast. I don't think he's a very good footballer and I can't remember him ever sending in a good cross. Walker is not an upgrade in any sense over Trippier except maybe in a back 3. TAA is an upgrade on Trippier going forward but he can't or won't defend. Just my opinion.
  5. I knew Trippier was likely to get dropped but for Walker that's just mind blowing. Southgate is such a dick.
  6. The Newcastle contingent are keeping a low profile so far with only Trippier starting and the way he's playing he'll soon be on the bench with the others. Shows what having a good manager can do.
  7. Tactically Canada are completely naïve. Whether that is down to the manager or the players no idea.
  8. It's definitely a bit shite. If the teams in this World Cup were in the premier league most would be relegated to the Championship and never seen again. The likes of Denmark and Argentina would probably be mid table, leaving England (with a different manager), Spain and France to fight for the champions league positions. Only Brazil would have a chance of winning it and Man City are probably better than them anyhow.
  9. Rabiot has been very good so far, he would be a nice addition to our midfield.
  10. The US are fitter faster and more athletic just need the goal they deserve. No doubt England will go and knick it at the end.
  11. Shit by Manquillo. Going to need better RB cover than him.
  12. We are a good team but even more importantly a lucky team, it's a great combination.
  13. Elliott. Homegrown, no transfer fee.
  14. Some clubs are renowned for giving young players a chance, Bayern, Dortmund even Barcelona. PSG not so much. But pretty much the worst club out there is NUFC. Now you could argue that we don't give young players a chance because the ones we have are all useless and historically for the last couple of decades they have been. However the lack of game time that Anderson is getting (Murphy for fuck's sake starts instead of him) is not going to encourage all these young Brazilians we are being linked with to actually want to sign for us. In Eddie we trust, well in Anderson's case not so much. Did he give young players a chance when he was at Bournemouth and Burnley? Maybe he'll pick him tomorrow.
  15. He'll be looking for 200K a week in the next contract so we will need to be prepared to pay him that or lose him to any of the other big clubs that will pay him that.
  16. Liverpool are the latest club to be linked with Brazil midfielder Bruno Guimaraes but face competition from Chelsea and Real Madrid, unless Newcastle United can convince the 24-year-old to sign a new contract with them. (TNT Sports - in Portuguese)
  17. They really have to do something about Var and the people implementing it.
  18. Nearly conceded there entirely due to Longstaff being too slow and caught in possession.
  19. I think today we will find out if our ceiling is 7th or if we have a chance of getting into the top 6.
  20. Lucky at the end to get a point, but we'll take it.
