Being very well paid to sit on the bench, then come on when teams are tiring, sounds like the perfect gig for someone with his fitness record and at his age.

That was a poor performance, but all credit to Bournemouth, they were excellent in every department. Unpopular suggestion I'm sure, but we need to try and sell Bruno and reinvest starting with an athletic midfielder to compliment Tonali. Other than the odd flash of excellence, Bruno is too slow and has been found out. We really need more pace and athleticism in central defence and central midfeld.

Our manager's team selection and tactics always leave me a bit baffled, we need an upgrade urgently. Southampton look a far better organised and drilled side. We have some decent players, but the manager is really not getting the best out of them. Agree Boddy should have started.

Would be very happy with Madueke or Mbeumo, rate them both.

I want them to win obviously, but am I the only one who finds Man City's way of playing mind numbingly boring for 99% of the time? I really hate watching them.

Nunes's step dad is a mackem. Just saying.

10 seasons worth of luck in one season. They should be somewhere near the bottom 3rd of the league.

A catalogue of sloppiness, poor decision making and not taking their chances. Very frustrating. Very Newcastle.

Really don't think he'll make the grade, but would be very happy to be proved wrong.

Just awful. Again.

And our Jamacian international centre forward has missed 3 really good chances, she's having a bit of a 'mare.

Yes, 2pm, we're 35 mins underway. 0-0. On youtube and nufc.co.uk.

I quite like the Luton left back Alfie Doughty, looks decent. Only 24.

What's happened to Elysia Boddy, she doesn't seem to have played for quite a few games? Injured, transferred? She always looked to be a very good player. Anyhow good luck to the lasses today.

The new contract is great news, the club just needs to get him some sort of specialist athletics/movement coach to improve his running, he has such a weird style. I'm sure a specialist could unlock that extra yard he needs. I know he's young, but now's the time to do it.

Forest score. No suprise at all. It's been a woeful performance. Real shame.

The conditions aren't helping, but we are really poor. Other than Boddy (who is a very good player) are we missing any other regular 1st team players?

They're the best team in the world and we have 12 fit 1st team players. Top effort, by us, just a shame we couldn't hold on.

That should have been a Rangers penalty, surely.

Wish you could watch the match with just crowd noise and no commentary. Edit. Or to be precise, no co-commentary.

Trippier brings back a Keegan memory for me. I knew Keegan was a class act, but I didn't truly realise how good he was until we signed him. Same for Trippier. Both top, top class players, who for me, exceeded my expectations.

Where are all these stars of the future young lads we've been signing recently. We look pretty poor.

An absolute masterclass of how not to play against 10 men with a 1-0 lead.

Howe's tactics and subs have been absolutely SHITE. He needs to take full responsibilty for this car crash of tactical ineptness.

Howe's tactics and subs have been absolutely and totally SHITE.
