It wasn’t cut when I watched it;
Saint-Maximin injury 'worry', Guimaraes update & 'huge' Krafth blow
Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has a host of injury concerns ahead of the visit to Liverpool
It wasn’t cut when I watched it;
Aah good to know, thanks
Alice? Who the fuck is Alice?
Joel farted, it was loud and a bad one. The wind was blowing in a specific direction.
It was virgil, and Joel is just enjoying it.
Matip is used to it.
I wonder if the barcodes will be singing this before the game tomorrow…
Best line in it… (watch for the Trippier free kick)… " with T.Rex in the goal"
Mohamed Salah is the only Liverpool player in history to have scored in five successive home league games against Newcastle. A goal tomorrow night would see the forward become Liverpool’s outright second-highest Premier League scorer.
ASM and Wilson both out for them no?
Doubt according to Howe.

Come kick off, they’ll miraculously recover
We can go as high as 5th if we win tonight. Not to downplay how shit we were in the first 3 games but reality is its so early in the season and the team has every chance to turn this season into still a fantastic one and we havw the best people and team to do so.
Yep it has been an unusual start to the season and apart from Arsenals start everyone has looked vulnerable and supposed lesser teams are causing top teams problems
Yes and no. Finishing above cheaty is what the league is about and being 5 points behind after 4 games is awful and I think we will look back and say that gap ultimately cost us.

Last season we pulled back a 12 point gap with less games to play.
Well we didn’t because we couldn’t get it over the line.
Not to mention the finale to last season - missing out on the league again by such narrow margins and then botching the CL final - was incredibly draining and will make yet another chase from behind this season much harder mentally with the expectation that cheaty won’t crack.
We’ve seen that this cheaty team can easily rack up 95 points and win many games on the spin. The only time we’ve won the league was when we were relentless and opened up a big gap from which they (fairly understandably) lost intensity. We needed to do the same this season - start on fire and be on 27 or 28 points after 10 games and hope they have some slip ups. Our poor start means they won’t be under any pressure from us until after the WC at the earliest (unless they absolutely fall apart) and that assumes we play pretty amazingly.
Of course we have to keep fighting and believing but, after last seasons heartbreak, out start makes this so much harder.
I would like Tsimikas to start.

What I’m saying if we can pull back a twelve point gap to one point, then this rubbish start can be overcome.
But its not linear. If we’d been 15 points behind cheaty I expect we’d also have finished 1 behind and if it had been only 9 cheaty would also have kept their noses in front. The way Pep plays means their intensity may drop for a few games if they are far infront but it’s unrealistic for us to chase this down and then maintain an almost 100% record for such a long stretch of the season. We lost the league with a 16-2-0 record with draws against Spurs and Cheaty. That is an incredible effort but we can’t expect to do that again and again under pressure from behind. We’ve got to get in front of the bastards and the beginning of the season with their new forward setup is the easiest time to do it. We’ve blown that and we’ll have to be incredible from now until the WC just to be back in the box seat.

See you next season then
Depressing right? Must beat sandcastle.
