Pre Match Newcastle v Liverpool (Away) 25/08/25 8pm BST

They have no striker so as long as MacAllister isn’t up against Burn on freekicks and corners we should be fine.

He (Mac) isnt in the squad

He’s done his bit!

Unless he’s a doctor on the side, he should get his boots on, play the match, then get to the hospital with cigars and champagne posthaste, to wet the baby’s head.

This post has been brought to you from the 1970s :joy:

Macca isn’t in the squad btw, as he’s about to become a father.

A 433 would leave us very exposed for long balls on the flanks to be exploited by their fast wingers. They also have midfielders who can get into the box. Them not having a nominal striker right now is surely a plus for us, but it doesn’t mean someone else can’t score.

I’d keep our usual formation with Gravenberch as the holding midfielder, and organise everything from there.

Is he not in the squad? Or not trained those are two different things. Anyhow that’s our new whizz bang right back that has to be in the middle :wink:

A goalie who didnt let in a header from 20 yards would be nice as well.

Pack the team with giants, shithouses and Salah.

Alisson

Then Leoni, Konate, Virgil, Robbo
Szoboszlai, Gravenberch, Elliott
Salah, Ekitike, Gakpo

Keep Wirtz out of it for an hour as it’s going to be tetchy and those boys above aren’t taking a backwards step.

I’m not around for the post match (on holiday), so if anyone else wants to set up the thread and poll of players who still have legs at full time, be my guest.

I take it that is a friendly stab on me :slight_smile:
Good one. You would have to ask someone else, lol, I find it a bit exhausting to read that thread and news on him atm. There are a couple of people who have written to me that I have planned to respond to, but since I want a nice day; I am waiting a bit to read their posts (just seen the notifications) since I don’t want the hassle of debating it on a “nice day” :slight_smile:
Otherwise, here in Norway i can relate that we have a very nice and sunny day today, which has been a rarity the last months.

Take care.

You sweet summer child :smiley:

Sorry, could not resist the terrible joke

Hate Monday night football just putting it out there.

And we also have a terrible record I feel.

It’s more a stab at my inability to get off my phone, stop fretting about Isak and enjoy my holiday!:joy:

Their Five-Belly Fans Stirring the Pot..!
They not going to be happy until one of our players is carried off the pitch

Get a grip of your players Howe
 prove you are not a Fuckin Numpty

Who has spoken about their club? Am I missing something?

If Joelinton wants embody the frustrations of Newcastle fans, then maybe he can run into the stands and two foot Richard Hughes?

Some player who has had absolutely fuck all to do with the shenanigans is going to kop a really bad tackle.
