Newcastle (a) pre-match thread

Be very difficult this game Benitez the scouser who had his team bend over for Liverpool will have them fired up to fcuk.

I’m not buying that.

This^^^ got a nice 3 days up there, can’t wait.

I think you know what Silva he means

Maybe... but dropping Bernardo is a tough call; the guy is fucking mega and getting better and better.

I always want to see Bernardo playing as he has become such an important one for us! :-s

Ederson
Walker
Stones
Laporte
Danilo
Fernandinho
De Bruyne
Bernardo
Sterling
Sane
Jesus

Tough game with Rafa’s negative shite football with ten men behind the ball until last five minutes so need an early goal then few more in second half

 

[chaddblue]

There is no logical reason why we won't win this comfortably

 

[kippaxoldboy]

Once again.... I can`t see anything other than a comfortable win :)

I’m worried you believe that

Chance to go within a point of Liverpool.

Ederson
Walker
Stones
Laporte
Danilo
Fernandinho
De Bruyne
Silva
Sterling
Sane
Aguero

That’s exactly the XI I’d go with, and the substitutions today pointed to this lineup, ie, taking Dinho and Kevin off and giving minutes to Merlin and Kun.

And it’s pretty much our strongest team available at present, though Bernardo has very strong claims to be included.

0-2 routine win
