    Leeds beating Chelsea makes it even less likely newcastle won't lose miserably.

    Don't mind him, I told him earlier Targett wasn't playing and he didn't believe me, anyway looking like 2 unlikely results today so let's make it a third one!

    Howe's limitations back to the fore in this one. City have dominated teams, yet here we are, inferior players, going toe to toe in a like for like formation.

    You can see from Leeds, from Brighton, that you have to innovate and copying other teams' formations with worse players just doesn't ****ing work.

    Then we've got Wood, Murphy, Longstaff on the bench. BuT wE haVe HaD A gReAt tRanSFeR wINdoW.

    I'll just say the words Burn at left back, and leave that there.

    Would you prefer Dummett or Lewis? Genuine question, Targett not even in the squad.

    Ps forgot about Ritchie

    Why is Dummett now on a new contract, or Lewis still here, is my genuine question back? Let's not even get started on how Ritchie's still at the ****ing club!

    Howe has decided the right answer to the threat of Phil Foden is 6'7 Dan Burn. Dummett in the past is a decent man marker and can actually run. Lewis is also quick, though has been poor. I don't get the team selection at all. It's like we literally only have eleven players we can trust and pick in this brave new era, and no money, ability or genuine desire to buy more.

    That’s the thing though, Lewis is not a poor player. In fact he was making progress under Howe then got injured. I’d be playing Lewis. The only issue is that ASM would offer zero support soo I’d play him on the right and Almiron on the left

    I agree with you, don't understand the Dummett thing either and as for Lewis well you either play him or get rid, said earlier playing a team like City just shows up our squad but Wood can come on to hold onto the lead for the last 10 minutes!

    Ake is basically Lascelles so that's a plus
