Its not like its Brighton v palace just yet (and most of them were not alive when the first issue arose) At least theres a canal to fight over with manchester
Its not changed since last year. Play to score. Play to win well then relax nto your pattern In the prem no game away is over until its over. Even at 2-1 we never raised it at all. At home a lot of sides just need one spark but away they can drop the heads.
It is frustrating, we are not and never will be the City of 5 years ago who could just keep the ball forever and you lose. No idea why we keep this up when it has gotten us into trouble so many times
Before yesterday Newcastle had not beaten Liverpool in the last sixteen league games. Now seventeen league games.
When you watch Ngumoha’s goal I’m impressed that he had the confidence to hit it across to the keepers left instead of to the keepers right when it looked a lot easier to get it on target and score
I genuinely thought we were going to lose, ultimate humiliation. So it was all the more sweeter when Rio pinged that in
Wirtz seems to have struggled with the pace of the Prem, but I think he will come good. Grav was similar in his first few games for us as it is a lot faster in the Prem than any other European leagues
The ball was only in play for 40.8% of the game, the lowest % in a PL game since 2010, 40% - Stoke v Blackburn.
One of the tougher away games of the year is over. However we have not lost at st James park since 2015 so 10 years now. We drew last year with abysmal defending so this is better result for slot.
Just going back to that winning goal (having watched it again now the emotion as died down) and I've got to say, it was a fabulous team goal. Worked in tight areas in midfield to develop a bit of space of the right and create the opportunity, all one touch passing too. Lovely team goal
