As a former player, maybe Newcastle could step in and help? Anything... It's awful what's happening over there.

I did hear the crowd "Ryan Fraser, you're a cunt' on repeat for a while.. Quite funny..imagine if he'd been sent on! Love the fact Eddie is loved there and they know exactly how good he is. Probably the only other set of fans that do!

Eddie Howe has made me fall in love with Newcastle again. If he left, I'd be heartbroken. I think he's an amazing manager; kind, thoughtful, dedicated and above all, highly intelligent. Much more intelligent than some people on here thinking we've "outgrown him". If anything, he is so good that our own owners never expected us to be this good and we are over achieving. BECAUSE of Eddie, not in spite of him. The aim this season was a good cup run and top 10/8 I assume. And now we are 4th, with some small space in between us and 5th, in a cup final - all this with some championship players and players that Eddie himself has improved. Anyone thinking our success is down to anything but that man needs their head rolling.

Forest fans think he was their best player when he came on. We were just starting to see the best of him when he got injured so I think there's still a good player there. But now whether with someone else's coaching he won't be as good, we will have to see!

Love this guy. He was gutted about the yellow card. I think it was a bit unfair by the ref too. He did catch the ball, he just caught his man too. He will be sorely missed when be gets that 10th yellow. Luckily Bruno should be back by then.

He looks absolutely shattered. I mean we basically have no other LB cause Dummett doesn't count. We need Targett back asap for Dan to have a rest.

Also when Bruno first started, he got bullied off the ball a lot. Isak needs time in the team to learn the premier League, adjust etc. Don't think he's shit by any means! Also him along with 8 others were terrible. All round off game. Sure Eddie will sort it.

Man United just drew with Leeds and CP so I don't think we are unusual! Arsenal just lost to Everton and drew with Brentford and Tottenham just got spanked by Leicester. Think we are fine! Just a bad patch.

Joelinton 9th yellow card very worrying. Losing him for 2 games will be pretty bad. Looking very very thin on the ground now with potentially willock, maxi and miggy out. Missing Bruno terribly. Maybe we will turn up for Liverpool. Anyway still a great season, but gotta start winning these games

I think Tripps is knackered tbf. Apart from a few half an hour's in a cup game he's not been rested at all plus, he doesn't just hang at the back he's literally up and down up and down all game. Same with miggy. Both are knackered I think. Even just coming off for half an hour in a game would help but hopefully with the fixtures lightening up a bit it'll get better.

Bit worrying we've conceded two goals in a row from goals like that. Need to work on defending our corners. Eddie won't be happy!

Lucky to be drawing tbh but I did love that effort from maxi to keep the ball in and then was a great goal tbh. showed real composure esp under a bit of pressure. Shite first half, amazing second half please boys!

Great results all around us. Now we just need to top it off with a classy 3 nil win and the weekend is complete!

He's training but not sure if it's full training. So just how long it takes him to get back up to speed.. fingers crossed anyway

Arsenal are deffo going to cool off the prem title. And with man city looking ropey, this title is actually up for grabs.

Haha I know totally. It's the only silver lining And just to be clear, I'd tank my FPL team for the toon anyday

These game results are all good for us but for my FPL team, it's shite! Plus I left Toney on the bench thinking "surely not". Idiot.

Awful bench. Only Gordon could have a positive influence from that.. Hope we smash in a few early doors and relax

There's always the Murph.

Hope this ASM + Isak connection is translated onto the pitch

Yeah don't want Wilson sick/injured again. But could be Isaks chance to shine if so.

Any early team news?.

Leicester! Let Maddison leave on a high

If they get a points deduction that would be very sweet and wouldn't that mean that there's more room in the top 4? I reckon pep knew this was happening and that's why they've been off this season. Something's happening behind closed doors.

Onwards and upwards!
