Showed loads of signs of progress too, the stats rank amongst the best in the league, just been a bit unlucky. They will be a top ten premier league Club in the next 5 seasons.

Lots of pretty play but no cutting edge. Not sure what they need to do to fix that. 20m on Maupay hasn't seemed to have helped. I look forward to playing them after the break. We match up really well against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 2 shots in 52 minutes for Newcastle, might be a personal best. Watch them sneak a 98th minute drae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 You would think Newcastle were playing Manchester City or something. This is shameful. Reminds me of us in 2018 when we played any of the "good" teams (of which we were one of). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So will wolves with the Portuguese influence, Leeds with bielsa, West ham with the new stadium, us with out billionaire owners, Newcastle if they get take over by the Saudis, Everton with Ancelotti, Leicester, the sky 6 or whatever you call them... We can't all do it And that's before asking what "achievement" is top 10? That's the competitive league myth of the PL, Brighton are doing things... no they're not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ease they just continue with their best player out is impressive. I remember last season they were deciding to rest Ings for certain games like Chelsea away and they still came away with a 2-0 win. They scout brilliantly too. Think of all the players they end up selling and just get on with it. Ralph is proving to be a top manager to be fair, great job he’s done there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Mohammed Salisu still hasn't even featured for them yet due to "fitness reasons" whatever that might be. He was really impressive last season in Spain and unless there is something not right with him he may turn out another good find when he get's up to speed.
