    Anything less than a Toon 3-1 win is humiliating failure for you. < FACT >
    If Spurs are wearing the 3rd kit, then ^3-1 ^4-1.

    If we had our best side out maybe but that defence is absolutely shocking. Slow is an understatement.

    I'll be pleased to get anything Today.... I find myself hoping you guys get a red card.

    Bissouma has been awful for a long time now. Bentancur hasn’t looked good since his injury. Maddison hasn’t remotely looked like the player he was in his first ten games either.

    As a unit I don’t think they can give Spurs the control they need in games.

    And Skipp can't even make the bench, somehow.
    Bryan Gil preferred over Dane Scarlett this week, though. I wonder why?

    Skipp’s definitely not rated by Ange.

    A DM is needed just as much as a ST in the summer

    I think it's a shame that we haven't attempted to convert him into that role.
    Nobody's nailed it down, he's got the qualities to play there and we're desperately short of HG/CG.
    He's one of those that should probably look to move on for his own good.

    Need to silence the crowd asap. This Is one of those grounds where if you give them any incentive they can really influence games.
    We should be able to do that and with Newcastle riddled by injuries all the pressure is on us, so you can bet what will happen....<doh>

    Isak is a real threat for them. Looks a top striker.

    Bentancur gives the ball away and then gets skinned for pace. Not a great start! <doh>

    'if that happened later in the game it would be a yellow card' <doh>
    If it's a yellow, it's a yellow. Anytime.

    I don’t think Ange thinks he’s good enough

    Werner misses a sitter, should be a goal

    That’s why I don’t want him permanently.

    Great by Brennan Johnson though

    McCoist takes the words out of my mouth. Got to be a header. Really hard shot to take.

    That should have been a HEADER from Werner.

    He’s an attacker who looks uncomfortable shooting.

    Not for me

    Porro recovered well there, but nobody's getting to Gordon quickly enough.

    Looks like a high scoring machine today. Their front three look very good.
