Newcastle United (a) pre-match thread

Early kick off, away, at a place we struggle.
Let me get back to you.

A place we struggle you say....haha!!!. We have won 9, drawn 1 and lost 1 there over recent years.

Yeah, I think it's going to be tough today. Hopefully the defeat to Villa will have taken the wind out of their sails a bit after a mini revival of sorts. The early kick off might make the atmosphere a bit more subdued than usual too. We just look a bit laboured in midfield these days. Really wish Foden would start paying more to get us a bit more drive and energy in the middle, but it seems as unlikely as ever.

Maybe that's why he is not getting a game the tightwad

Hello guys I've just arrived in the town centre of Newcastle look for a pub with blues in it, any recommendations ??

Just thinking of the team.

I would go

Eddie
Walker
Stones
Otamendi
Mendy
Kev
Gundogan
Bernardo
Sterling
Mahrez
Jesus

Give Rhodri the week off - not quite fit yet

What no Ferdy

 

[TikiTaka]

Sterling - Jesus - Mahrez
David - Gundo - KDB
Mendy - Ferna - Otamendi - Cancelo
Ederson​

I have a feeling we need a sharper defense against Burnley on Tuesday, so he will rest Stones and Rodri in this one. I think even Otamendi might do well against these guys.

Would like Foden to play to give our midfield some energy but I know Pep would sooner start Scott Carson than Foden.

Not always just about points.
But ok, look forward to the win.

Save Ederson for Tuesday, these clowns can't hurt us

Pathetic attitude, did you say that last season as well?

These are the type of team that can hurt us...battles and fighters with pace upfront and power and height
