Burns positioning is so fucking high. It's hampering big Joe from an attacking point of view as Joe's having to cover so much.

Too few crisps there.

Hall right back

Yes. Howe's fundamentally based his tactics on pressing. It's vital to have hard working forward players who can do that .

Id well have him here. Absolute grafter. Never hid, can play off the flank. We'd looked at him pre Liverpool getting him. Sort of player Eddie can get a lot from. A free transfer seems a no brainer to me.

Nope. He didn't appreciate what he had here. Also injury prone players don't get less problems as they get older.

Making friends everywhere he goes

No

I said they were complicit.

That's partly the point isn't it ?

Yet signed a contract to work for him, contacted the club after the sacking of Maclaren to express his interest when he wasn't even on the radar with Charnley and co. I like Rafa he was a good manager and a clever politician. He went into the job here with his eyes completely open . If Ashley had supported him better he'd have been an even better shield and Ashley could well have made even more from the takeover or perhaps have made it sooner. Certainly wouldn't have to paper over the cracks by funding Bruce and giving away tickets.

Aww you like Shearer and Rafa so they should be exempt ? Grow up.

Every manager who chose to work for Ashley after the Keegan debacle was complicit in the defrauding of Newcastle United fans . Complicit in the turning of us into a zombie club whose sole purpose was to make more money for the owner and his brand.

Exactly, where as Guehi got his City move by just knuckling down and playing his game for Palace.

They're all complicit in the fraud even Shearer even Rafa. I give Hughton a pass as he was kind of left with the mess and brought there by Keegan who I don't blame in the slightest .

Says everything you need to know about Ramsdale that Pope rightly keeps him out. Get John Burridge up here in his caravan

To be fair he did break a sweat which is something I'd not seen him do in a Newcastle shirt yet

Far from a solid performance and the same problems are still there but the day so was the commitment. Crowd were good, Bruno makes such a difference in key moments and Osula and Big Joe gave everything. Thought Tonali was poor but little Joe gave us a good first half. I dunno where it goes from here but looks like Eddie's getting the chance to put it right this summer.

Should start a go fund me for bets against Newcastle with my track record they never come in and we'd win the league.

Three big moments from Wor Joe there.

Players drive you fucking mad. 2-1 up and clinging to the lead and Burn's bombing forward from centre back to the left hand midfield channel. Sit in you big bastard !!

Can we Dr Frankenstein Pope's top half with Ramsdale's bottom half ?

This fucking goalkeeper. Give Gillespie game

Need an out ball . Barnes on the right has been woeful and left us looking far weaker . The 5-4-1 just means we've got no presence in the Brighton defensive third.

It's in the balance. We've been poor this half but the efforts there . We've gone 5 at the back Brighton runnners still finding space tho
