I’m over Smith I’m afraid, this is pathetic

So deflating. Still 80 minutes to go, but up hill struggle now

I’m in

Same. 8 games, got in from the queuing system but no option to buy

Where’s Mings

Wow wow Wow!!

Gave Mings MOTM but Nyland was really good. Not sure we need to look outside the club to replace Heaton?

Thanks

Does anyone know, could he play a part in the league cup semi’s?

It looks an even bigger three points after the Southampton and Watford results

Massive three points. Jack and Tyrone were superb. Fair play to Dean, something needed changing and he sorted it. I just hope Wes and Tom aren’t too serious

Frustrating. We have decent technical players and yet appear to panic constantly, hoof the ball and invite the pressure back on - I don’t get it. We’re very one dimensional. We need some pace up top, be that out wide or up front.

I don’t think it will be long until Poch is in charge of Utd. Maybe this will be Ole’s last game....

Newcastle were poor first half and gave us a bit to worry about in the first 5/10 minutes of the second, but we managed that period ok and then it just felt like we needed the third to kill it off. It never came, but thankfully it didn’t impact the overall result. Having Heaton in goal is massive, some of the shots he saved were straightforward, but one or two could have caused trouble against our other keepers. Konsa, Guilbert and Targett were very good last night. Mings and McGinn had off days. Luiz looked assured, bar one moment at the beginning of the second half when he got caught in possession. ElGhazi looked a threat constantly. Wez did well against a solid back 5. Connor did what Connor does well and protected Jack too. Jack was out of this world and on another level from everyone else on the pitch last night - he oozes class Their only real threat was Saint-Maximin, who reminds me a lot of when we had Traore - lightning pace and very direct, but little end product

Grealish has been awesome and Targett decent too. I have I say, Saint-Maximin worries me on the break, but as we saw towards the end of the half, the more they push on, hopefully that allows us the opportunity to create at the other end and score more

Hopefully the two weeks between games allows us to get some players back for Newcastle

Are Liverpool or Man City playing today?

Completely agree. We’re very ‘last ditch’

That bang on the head was obviously what Targett needed

Too easy

Brilliant!!

What a game! Terrible and brilliant at the same time. We were flat, gave them far too much time on the ball and never reallY looked like being able to break down their 10 men. In fact, at times, they looked like they had the extra man, we just gave them time and space. Grealish was out of this world, pressed, chased, harried, won the ball, ran at them, scored the equaliser and set up the winner. The complete performance. Not sure what everyone else’s excuse was, international hangover maybe, or maybe a hangover from McGinn’s birthday celebrations. However, overall, the key for today was to get three points, which we did - eventually. Vital when you take into consideration the next two opponents. Amazing feeling, when you think it’s all over, to get the winner. Great finish from Targett too - made up for the rest of his performance. UTV

Engels at fault for the first goal, that lofted pass was a bit of a nothing ball that go rammed down his throat and cost us. I have no idea what Mings was thinking either trying to head the ball to Taylor in a packed box for the second goal. I don’t disagree that Arsenal are not in great form at the moment and there for the taking, but they are a decent side with some class players and when we found ourselves ahead, in particular after the second goal, for some reason we appeared to try to hold on to what we had, but it was far too long to do so - the players are as desperate for points and that ‘first away win in XX’ as we are, but we need to keep our heads when we find ourselves in these sort of situations. I can’t get my head around the Trezeguet sub, I assume it was to be more defensive, but it didn’t work and what we actually needed was to get back on the front foot, but those subs came far too late in the game. I hope Smith is man enough to admit he got it wrong today, but ultimately individual errors cost us. Im not ready to hit the panic button just yet, but that was horribly frustrating. UTV

Great news, we’ll done Tyrone

I thought that too. Looks like they played a pretty full strength side as well
