    Will be interesting to see if we go back defensive and bring Willock back or stick with ASM.

    Think we'll actually go to 4-2-3-1 for this. Gordon in on the left, Isak behind Wilson. I said Wilson shouldn't start again, but I don't think the 4-3-3 is working anymore and Isak looks good coming from deep.

    I don't think Eddie will change from the 4-3-3 yet.

    He's going to have to be more flexible else Staveley's comment of him being Newcastle's 'Sir Alex' ain't gonna happen.

    Think this could be a bit of a difficult game after the cup final - a point would be a bonus and anything less than 3 goals against the goal difference would be good!

    If we keep playing the way we have been, we're getting pumped in this one. We've just looked bad for too long.

    Agree. Very bad planning by Chippy here.
    Must try harder.

    This will be an interesting game. We need a reaction from the lads after two losses. We will likely lose but City have been up and down this season. A little bit of luck could snatch this for us

    I expect a defeat against Man City, any points here will be a nice bonus. Then we move on.

    Been saying it the last month but reality is upon us. The side was over achieving and people shifted their expectations too soon

    If they can get anything in this game it'll be a miracle. Unfortunately we'll hear the delusionals going after howe the players and owners in the tougher moments.

    Just look at the full season and position overall and its still very good.

    3-0 City

    Not a chance we can score

    I don't think we will score a goal against anyone at the moment.

    Wilson is taking some heat have his legs gone or can he return to form?

    A new number 9 would not be cheap but I think they need one.

    He's, what, 31 now? And with so many injuries that's going to take a toll, you'd imagine. One I'd be looking to sell in the Summer.

    Needs replacing in the summer, but to be fair the midfield etc haven't been providing too many chances of late either
