    Great point. In fact, every team we’ve played against this season finished higher than us last season. So that makes our start surely one of the most difficult possible. Out of the 8 games played, Newcastle have played only 2 that finished above them… Just saying!!

    We have to be tighter in midfield v Chelsea. Not like the second half v Wolves or the first v Man Utd. So I suspect it may be a wide forward who makes way.

    Enjoyed it tremendously. Nervy of course, but the atmosphere, the spirit of the team and the sense of belonging in the premiership is something real!

    Got a feeling Rigg might make way and going to a back five

    For Chelsea I would definitely have Reinildo back and take Traore out and have Rigg as impact sub.. we need physicality against Chelsea, Our defence is outstanding and bringing back Reinildo is putting round pegs in round holes for me

    take the first half against Forset,

    they were all over Chelsea and really should be 3/4-0 up
