    They have been good lately. But we can beat them. 100%.

    It just depends on how much the other night has taken off of them.

    Gordon will start.

    I'm predicting that we'll either win, lose, or draw. Then after the game I can say I was right.

    I dont know why people think we should beat them with a back 4 including 3 relegation level defenders and only 4 players signed under the new ownership. Bruno isak Livramento Burn.

    It's like people think it doesn't matter.

    None of our defenders are relegation team players

    Of the current squad, only Lascelles, Dummett and Ritchie played in the championship for NUFC.

    Others have played under Rafa & Bruce, but in the PL.

    They don't and that's why they're not far off the European spots.

    Lascelles
    Schar
    Burn
    Longstaff
    Bruno
    Joelinton
    Almiron
    Wilson
    Gordon if fit

    Should be enough, surely?

    We do, then we fade. We need some who can come on to finish the game off.

    It's like trying to educate a mouse. <whistle>

    Won't happen obviously because Burn lascaelles and longstaff are available, but I'd rather give other players a chance.. freshen it up more legs from the start.


    Karius
    Livramento
    Schar
    Murphy
    Hall
    Joelinton
    Guimareas
    Miley
    Isak
    Gordon
    Almiron

    He brought Isak on vs Milan along with Burn and Longstaff and it was a disaster.

    Then you've got two weaker teams over the 90... there's fresh legs and then there's leaving out 64 million pound strikers at home vs Fulham.

    Fans tend to overrate their own players and underrate other sides players. The likes of lascelles longstaff Burn Dubravka and probably schar would struggle to get in a Premier league side if they were sold.

    Newcastles defence is currently so slow it's disturbing and if you add longstaffs and Guimareas's horrific pace protecting them you've got issues.

    Willock has been a huge loss this season.

    Ah... so you think he should always start our best players, without rotation, right?

    Isak didn't start vs Milan **** for brains.

    Also I've suggested playing Murphy Hall and kariuus aswel. There's nearly half a team.
