This will be a horrible game where we'll play like a broken team and Newcastle will have moments of joy. Any scrappy win will do and if we do manage to win it will be scrappy, team wise Ederson, Cancelo, Zinchenko, Dias, Ake, Rodri, Gundogan, Palmer, Sterling, Jesus, Grealish

Hard to fathom how many of our players look physically tired recently whereas the dippers look as fresh as they did last August.

Maybe it's because they know they'll be playing and have to prepare and get used to that realisation. They then accept it and get on with it.
Ours seem to want mollycoddling and wrapping in cotton wool. We oblige.
Mind you, some on here think 2 games a week is a return to the looms.

Newcastle looked just as knackered in the home game against the dips and they have put in a huge amount of effort in keeping themselves clear of the trap door.

Newcastle have a full week of rest.

Full weeks rest and they have some quick players on the counter. Hopefully we can get an early goal

This game will be a whole lot easier if Spuds can do something Saturday night.

Would be interesting to see Palmer and Gundo, experience and youthful skill , I don’t think Palmer would let us down and it gives Kdb and Bernardo a rest

Fingers crossed we’ll be fine, we bounced back after that Spurs CL loss with a win against them at the weekend in a must win game.
