Really worried it'll be Scott...

Reading through this thread and seeing what goals have been disallowed (wrongly IMO) does confirm there's a definite need for VAR. If only we could use it correctly....

Puncheon Akinfenwa Vokes Toure Pique Pepe

McTominay next....

Medical today and not announced yet..? Worrying.

Johnny, who got sent off lad?

That was my problem I also realised we didn't have tons of loveable LBs. Couldn't bring myself to include Enrique.

I was asked a question earlier by a family member, which made me think.... "What's your favourite Newcastle XI, and managed by who?" A difficult one! But I went with a semi-credible formation (some creative license). Given Solano Schar Coloccini Burn Cabaye Speed Bruno HBA Jonas Shearer Manager: Sir Bobby. What's your starting XI? Really interested in hearing some of the answers..

Taylor vs Villa. When two of your players get sent off for having a punch up in the centre circle and it's NOT the most ridiculous thing to happen in the game, you have to wonder what the hell is going on

They're doing f*** all about it. They know it, we know it, and they know that we know it.

Whether Howe would or not, and whether it'd be a good thing or not is irrelevant IMO. I don't see any situation where the FA give the Saudis any level of compensation... The FA are massively risk adverse and won't want a media storm or questions asked. The next England manager will either be in the system (Carsley) or available on a free (Lampard or Potter).

In it for the money, or for the love of the club. Tory, or not. Likeable, or not. All irrelevant to me. They gave me the best present I've ever received. They gave me back my club. I'll be forever thankful.

Apparently, Fenerbache and Mourinho are "monitoring his situation". Off to Turkey?

Didn't want a penalty. Don't believe he has a concussion at all. He got a ball to the side of the face. He doesn't fancy it. Just like he didn't at St James' Park...

I'd love someone like Fulkrug playing for us. Different option

Ally McCoist not happy

He wants to give Southgate some advice. Love how he chases the game and is proactive early.

Yep. Also, Rudiger to be booked when he has to do any defending is fairly easy money

Kroos is a joy to watch. He starts every single attack. His passing range and awareness of space is second to none.

But harsh. Other than possibly not booking Kroos I'm not sure what he's got wrong? He's trying to let the game flow... Criticised when they're breaking up the game, then blasted when they let it go..

Aye, only 2 minutes for tripping mind.

Love this bloke. One of my all time favourites. NIce to see the club recognise his birthday.

We need to go 4-3-3 and sack off Saka and Foden OR Kane. Amazing players yes, but don't fit our system. We either need Toney upfront to hold up the ball and get beyond the backline to give Saka, Bellingham and Foden space... OR keep Kane and play Palmer and Gordon alongside him, sacrificing Saka and Foden. It's clear to almost everyone but he's so stubborn it will cost us yet another opportunity.

In the UK referees have to cover them up with make up or long sleeves. It's an FA requirement

Turkey have been involved in some cracking games in this Euro. This one and the game vs Georgia are right up there.
