Headers are supposed to be his strength but he gets no power and it's normally straight at the keeper.

A lot of tired performances tonight, hopefully a bit of a break will now help us get that spark back. Everton were utter gash as well.

My thoughts as well, we don't seem to have a plan without shelvey.

I find it crazy a game like rugby offers more protection against head injuries than football does.

This is my point as well. An 'accidental elbow' (which is debatable) is still putting players in danger, an elbow to the head is far more dangerous than a kick to a shin.

We offered very little going forward but superb defensive performance. Should have been a red card all day long, it's reckless, could have been a lot more serious. You will never see a more blatant penalty turned down. What is the point of VAR they may as well just turn it off.

Get in!

Just seen Bruno's goal, omg the audacity of the man, love it

In the immortal words of Ivan Toney, fuck Brentford ?

This! Certain players thinking they were too good to come and play for Newcastle and picking villa, be the icing on the cake if we finish above them, also can't stand their fans.

Second in the premier League form table, crazy!

Exactly we drew with a team challenging for top four away from home and remained unbeaten in 6. We are in charge of our own destiny now.

Biggest difference being it was all counter attack, we actually hold onto the ball now and it's so much easier on the nerves ?

Best performance in a Newcastle shirt, he had four players on him at times and just danced past them, just on another level.

I think he's been awful this season but tonight he looked a lot more solid and had so much commitment to get the ball. Very unlucky with the own goal.

Wow, what a performance. We actually look like a team. Some stunning performances across the pitch, but the way they all worked so hard without the ball was superb.

He's our worst player by a margin. How the hell he has held on to the captain's armband as long as he has confuses me. We can't build a solid team with him at the back. I hope he never plays another game for us, absolute garbage.

Make him captain immediately!
