    A spirited and encouraging performance from a team that looked knackered against Spurs but very nearly progressed in the Champions League.

    You're boring.

    On the bright side think us finishing last means the league doesn't get a 5th spot so we did knock one team out?

    Wilson is giving me retirement vibes. Like if he's not scoring regular, he's not really interested in the game.

    Sort of walks about, grumbles if he doesn't get passed too, complains when teammates miss.

    I've said now, 6 times and I said AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON, Wilson, Trippier and Schar are too old to be starting 11 Prem players.

    I feel vindicated.

    Schar has aged rapidly this season, too many games does that to players over 30.

    Wilson has been injured how many times? In 1 year hes lost about 3 yards of pace. Today he missed a shot cos the ball was going too fast for him.

    It's not complaining, it's just football. We need to replace them

    Personally hope the club dont build a new ground or expand SJP and most you bed wetting, 2 faced **** hawks get locked out for life and miss everything that’s coming. Bunch of cowardly, glory seeking, entitled ****s.

    Been a good experience really intense just a little short but considering the opposition and where we came from I think it's just a little reality check.

    Never thought we'd see these nights ever again not long ago.

    I agree u would. But we can’t just keep saying Howe is god. We are not winning the games we maybe should be. He’s under pressure and rightly so.

    Personally I’m just proud and happy I managed to experience SJP as I was at the match against PSG, a night me and my little lad will never forget. Out of every single club in Europe who fights for Champions League and dreams of it, we’ve had it.

    We’ve put our name there, those who didn’t know about Newcastle United sure do now.

    We’ll be back, when? I don’t know. But I know we will be.

    I thought only one PL team had to get to semifinals and City are still in.

    Howe can’t always be excused. At some point a reality check comes in.

    Tonight we ****ed up.

    We can’t just keep saying look where we were 2 years ago.

    Look at Villa. Ahem.

    PSG was amazing so it was worth it for that.

    In the end, are we going to win anything this season anyway? Probably not. So we got a CL run out.

    Whatever, we need more players.

    They'll all be bought up by Koreans anyway

    There will be a corner for a few geordies to sing a song or two and wave a scarf and that's about it

    Agree, he can't be excused all the time.

    What would you have done differently, with who he had available tonight?

    Apart from needing reinforcements, the truly concerning thing from a football point of view has to be our set pieces

    We are atrocious at them, it looks Sunday league at times.

    Owned by Saudi Arabia ffs, hire a set piece coach.

    That’s unfortunate because it’s irrelevant.

    If he kept losing wee in week out he would lose his job.

    At the moment we keep losing week in week out the big games.

    If our owners want to be mid table fodder ok.

    but after 400m I doubt that’s the case.

    He doesn’t win the important games.
