Newcastle United (H) - Sat 15th Feb, 15:00 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

Gundo should be nowhere near the team...at this point OReilly is a better option..

Our midfield is going to get overrun unless nico is superhuman

And Lewis at full back vs Gordon......be lkje watching a sloth trying to catch a cheetah

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Surprised Lewis is playing ahead of Nunes.
Whatever, but to have no senior fullback in the squad is a joke!

I’m surprised Lewis is playing ahead of me! Will be a surprise if we win with him and Gunders in the same starting line up

 

[ScottSinclair]

There you go

Stop rushing Dias back then so he can paper over cracks of a fucking lightweight pensioner midfield not fit for purpose you refuse to do anything about. Genuinly so pissed off right now. We won't have a senior cb fit for three games in a row for the rest of the season

 

[come-on-barney]

Need to get behind Lewis, as he’s in the side. Not sure it’s a good decision, but deserves our backing today.

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

Yeah no doubt the options are very limited. Only plus with Nunes is he can get forward with his pace

Nunes is a sub right? Would have had him against Gordon. With Rico it will be the Hare and Tortoise race

 

[chaddblue]

What’s up with Dias and Ake now?

 

[B\connellblue]

Newcastle lost at home to Southampton. They're no great shakes either. Unfortunately Pep has done it again as far as the team selection goes. Still we should have enough to get the points here.

Well said. Not his fault he keeps being thrown in the mixer.

 

[Petetheblu]

These fookin injuries are starting to dent my enjoyment....:^)

 

[NptonBlue89!]

Playing the best midfield in the prem and gundogan starts! Brilliant we are gunna get smashed through the centre of the park today. And add insult to injury I suppose no Dias either so back four is lightweight!

 

[Twisted-wheel]

Going to get a going over here with khusanov and Lewis in the line up, hope I’m wrong but not hopeful

 

[Paul1970]

I’m surprised Lewis is playing ahead of me! Will be a surprise if we win with him and Gunders in the same starting line up

I’ll be absolutely stunned if we win this game mate . What the fuck a up with not picking oreilly and don’t give me this pep sees then in training because gundo has stunk the place out all season yet he features every game and we put Lewis against Gordon for good measure. Fucking criminal this is .

 

[mancityscot]

Just seen Lewis’s name on team sheet. Son now crying. Nice one Pep

 

[MichaelFrontzeck'sBathroom]

That line up reeks of he’s throwing the league for the Madrid game, fucks knows why really since we’re out of that competition too. Regardless come on city

 

[mancboy]

This is on pep today, that team is a horror show

 

[bell_mcfc]

Yep then both out for 5/6 games again. Wednesday is a right off, should be focusing on three points today.

I dont think its a right off but get your point if they then miss a run of games.

 

[Keepingthefaithsince1976]

Maybe we are playing for a draw after Chelsea losing last night.

 

[Twisted-wheel]

Fuck me ake and Dias literally come back for one game and back out again, made of glass these two

 

[alexmcity]

Many think we should rely next season on the same CBs... It may be a very long season too.

Let's hope Dias and Ake are back for Real or at least Liverpool. Otherwise, it won't be pretty.

Stones's and Ake's injuries have ruined the other defenders as well. It's largely self-inflicted.

 

[ID70]

Gordon against Lewis...
