Cronky Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 The longer we can keep things level, the more they'll get frustrated and the more the off-field turmoil will take its toll. We've conceded only 4 goals in our last 7 games, so 2-1 to us and Rudiger to get a red card. He's about due one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Safe to say that the quality of the opposition is waaayy better than we’ve faced in a very long time. Interesting to see how we keep up today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gleebals Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Really think we will win this. Their players must be wondering what it going on. Apprently they will have big cash flow issues next month - my mate is agent to a couple of their players... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I see Merson is back on the sauce this week "They've been on a good run but these players finish in the bottom 3 next season". Is he barred from pubs in Newcastle or something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in his own infantile way he is formulating the narrative that it will be all about money spent not Howes coaching therefore ultimately exonerating Bruce from any blame. Because there will be an upgrade to the squad for next season any success will be attributed to that and the old line trotted out about how Bruce could have done the same job will be peddled Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he barred from pubs in Newcastle or something? He was saying he hopes the new owners don’t sit back (Ashley style) and stop investing because we would be third if the season had started in January, job done etc. It was a ridiculous analogy and of course that’s what was going to happen!

Hope it doesn't boil over in the stands. Yea I hope our fans don't get dragged into anything during the game. Just focus on the game and chant about the team.

TRon Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I don't think we'll play particularly well, just too many of our best players missing to expect a good performance, but if we can defend resolutely like we have been doing for the past couple of months, we can still snatch something. For all the shitstorm which is surrounding Chelsea, they are still one of the best teams in the world, a result would be massive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as we stay competitive, I highlighted the 8/1 we are today and I think it’s about right . 1-0 or 2-0 today for me and that’s not the old me talking just think these are on another level Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Really interested to see what side he puts out today as well, I can’t see him risking ASM or Joelinton and feel like Lascelles will come in for Schar based on Howe’s comments on Thursday.

xLiaaamx Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Joelinton being fit for this would be massive. Other than that, I'd like to see Manq back in for some fresh legs and some composure on the ball on the right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 This will be a good benchmark game, whereby in 2 or 3 seasons time, we can use it as a good measure of our progression. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 4 hours ago, GWN said: 8/1 I don't advocate gambling, but our chances of winning are better than that. Chelsea have played mostly away recently, but have drawn three of their last four home games. Everton (Rafa) 1-1, Brighton 1-1, Liverpool 2-2, and then Spurs 2-0 Big Dan Burn played for Brighton in that game (against Lukaku) and it sounds like they were unlucky not to win. 18 vs 11 shots and they hit the woodwork.
