Good to see Phillips back in his usual position ;-)

Be an interesting contest between Doku and Trippier if the former is deployed on the left. Doku hadn’t signed when we played them in August, and he only got the last third in the League Cup game, though he then faced Livramento, so it will be a fresh challenge for both.

Me neither, Newcastle like to.kick lumps out of us and are usually allowed to buy the refs.

Yep Trippier and Gordon will try and kick lumps out of us.

The Barcodes have been bobbins for weeks but they will turn up today , they will revert to the tactics they used at the Etihad , ten behind the ball and stay in the game , its gonna be a tough afternoon but we have a get of jail card on the bench, step forward KDB

Spot on. But in fairness, what else would be on a gameday thread?

The odd bit of positivity wouldn't go amiss, given out trophy haul of the last few seasons there must be something to admire somewhere?

 

[striver]

Good lineup. Newcastle look strong aswell!

Thought they had alot of injuries?

Tough game if we don’t get ahead early.

3 pts would be brilliant.

their bench is woeful on the other hand..

 

[Rammy Blue]

Kev, Grealish, Nunes, and Bobb? What exactly is weak about it?

And Rico

 

[Chi-town blues]

Is miley a wrecking ball ?

 

[Chi-town blues]

Seems so. Apparently suffered a nasty injury lighting his cigar.

Was he partying with walker by any chance ?

 

[paulchapo]

Strong team for the Geordie maggots in spite of all their whining.
