  1. This forum summed up perfectly in two posts.
  2. Strong bench. Need the early goal to open them up. Sounds like conditions are miserable, should help us, makes it much hard to play a disciplined defensive shape for 90 minutes.
  3. 100% must win. They are awful. We need to salvage something from the season to get a feel good factor going into the summer. A stumble here would be brutal.
  4. What we've heard in terms of exclusivity etc is crumbs at most. Any deals could be extended, re negotiated etc. Seen the rumor about the desk being done bouncing around the Twittersphere though.
  5. Had to be Robles or Barry for motm. Rest of the team fairly average. Liking Oviedo, great energy and neat passing. Niasse at least didn't look out of place. Not sure you could say much more based the 10 minutes.
  6. Why would you want us home? We've been twice as good on the road
  7. Watched the Gent game the other day. He bustled about and disrupted the defence but didn't really show much skill.
  8. Can't recall the last time I agreed with MC, buy he's taking sense in this post.
  9. At least we're away from Goodison. Don't want to see two CBs CMs. These aren't that strong in the center of the park. Should be an opportunity to rest Lukaku, who looks to need it.
  10. Just seen the Kone for Cleverly sub. Doesn't quite make sense for me. Why leaving in 2 dms against a team that has no intent to attack?
  11. Watching the match now, was too hung over to get up at 7 am. Just seen the goal. Can't blame Joel, maybe could say Funes Mori but hard to get in front of his marker on the near post flick. Coleman should have scored on his earlier chance when he let Olson block.
  12. Shared stadium with NFL team would utterly destroy the playing surface from August through January.
  13. Is Shawcross still out? If so I think we'll batter them. Offered nothing against United and we've finally got a bit of confidence. Will likely need Rom though, or else really excellent support for Kone so as he only needs to hold it up and play it off.
  14. Needed the points tonight, and could have been out of sight by half time, so can't really complain in the end, but why allow a shite side like Newcastle to come back into it and threaten us like they have?
  15. How can we turn so shit after utterly dominating? It's really a specialty
  16. Would be a revelation that. Despite Newcastle's total lack of attacking threat I still can't see a clean sheet. Going to need more than 1 for us to win it.
  17. Boring stuff, but should be 3-0 at least. Newcastle offered the princely sum of 0 in that half. Want to see Lukaku really boss their CBs in the second half.
  18. Our fullbacks are nowhere near the best in the league. They may have been a couple years ago, but the spark is gone. They create/score very little these days and the defensive record speaks for itself.
  19. Glad to have someone to try and fill the Naismith hole, but would've been more excited about a few defensive players for tomorrow. No indication from this window that Martinez realizes where our weakness lies.
