David Edgar

Time to make it 7-0-0

Bruno was on another level. Everyone else did a solid job across the 90.

That was a very competent away victory. Nicely done by everyone.

ASM is having a much better second half. Actually passing it quickly and accurately.

What a disgustingly good player. Fuck me.

This is the last time I want to see Lascelles in a Newcastle shirt. Fair to him, he has done a lot of very important work for us and was an excellent player in that Rafa defence. But he is just so limited that he can't be of much use for us as we develop our play style.

Wide left next season please.

Bruno is perfect at DM dictating play. Gonna be amazing when we provide 2 better CMs for him to play with. His passing forward is just another level to Shelvey.

That assist was pure luck was a bad pass that deflected to Joelinton.

I reckon we see Joelinton play from wide next season IF Howe can get a combative midfielder in. Joelinton does the physical stuff in midfield brilliantly, but his passing is really suspect. I think he will serve us best playing from wide where he will have less ball retention work to do, can help defensively and can use his physicality on the counter and arriving late in the box.

Few people getting a bit irate at me slating ASM, but the criticism is justified? He's been poor and in patches a liability. I'm genuine when I say I think having Gayle on for him would improve us. Joelinton was terrible at striker for the first 20 minutes. Kept dropping too deep. Since he's gone wide, he's offered a lot more. ASM is wandering all over the place from striker and that leaves no presence against the Norwich back 2. Gayle would offer that presence and just do his job more functionally.

Urgh, ASM is a liability. Sub him at half time for Gayle.

ASM nearly giving a penalty away.

Worst long throw ever attempted?

Good play big jow

Fucking Lascelles

ASM needless run leading to a lost ball count: 1

Amazing to see a DCM who can recieve the ball under pressure and retain it.

I enjoyed Willock being annoyed with ASM for not making the correct run.

Great first touch by Lascelles as he passes it straight to a Norwich shirt whilst under zero pressure.

Gonna be interesting to see Bruno in the playmaker position.

Grant Hanley versus Jamaal Lascelles. Clash of the titans.
