I’ve just seen the stats. Man City have not had a look in. Wtf is happening. Manu beating Chelsea. This season is bonkers.
Basically Tottenham Aston villa and Liverpool have all unfortunately jumped ahead of Newcastle big time.
No but the next 5 weeks Newcastles season will be derailed without a doubt. Still my original hopes for this season have always been 8th.
Seriously though Newcastles fixtures from now until mid of January are all brutal.... the same 11 will be done in already... Injuries will catch up. I fully expect Newcastle to fall away from the European spots over the coming days and weeks.
Not being funny but I honestly can't see how your concerned to this extent against Fulham, Luton and Forrest. Everton shouldn't be an issue but you can never bank on anything, granted Spurs may be an awkward one on Sunday. Other than that there's the guaranteed loss at Anfield on New Years day then the window opens if it's going to ****.
We've got no players left with no break for weeks .. basically 3 a week and most fixtures are very difficult ... it's inevitable that they'll struggle. Bournemouth away became impossible so will other games very soon I feel. Time will tell.
I didn’t see our game against Bournemouth but watched their game against Villa on Saturday and was very impressed with them. They were much the better side and should have won the game comfortably. Something seems to have clicked and I suspect they will climb the table now if they can keep their players together.
Everton are much the same should be comfy mid table ...anyone thinking this is an easy game will learn otherwise I think. Everton create plenty but don't take their chances. In almost all their losses their XG was better than the opposition by a huge margin. Newcastle are a good side, but the injury situation and number of games could bite soon.
I think for many of our fans their expectations are to compete for top 4 based on one potential flash in the pan season where 2 of the top 6 had their worst seasons in years. The harsh reality is that those clubs have come back instantly and to put another nail in Newcastles rise Aston Villa have overtaken Newcastle. I would expect as I said all summer and this season that Newcastle will make the europa or conference league, fall back for a couple of years and then come again. This isn't negativity it's reality and it's a great place.
