Match Thread Newcastle United v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[brettangellnightporter]

I’d take a 2-1 defeat with that news, feel sick our 3 most important players are all out. Thought Southampton was bad? Wait for Sunday!

Wtf

Wtf

Mate Newcastle had a hard fought draw with Newport this season. The lad has a point.

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

We've never won a PL game since his arrival without Richarlison. Now we're down James.

Are we better than that now? Yes. But this game will be anything but easy, especially away. My heart says we will find a way to win this, but I think Carlo will keep this close to the vest, try to nick it late, but on paper this looks like a dire 1-1 draw. Pick up a point, get the guys back healthy, and live to fight another day

No James richy or digne

 

[sageyefc]

The Icelandic rat appears to be to Carlo what Howard was to Martinez, everyone can see the problem but them ffs

 

[Furey1878]

Well James being out is a massive, massive blow, but Kenny being back is a big plus.

Pickford
Kenny Mina Keane NkNk
Douc Allan Delph
Iwobi/Bernard DCL Gordon
​

It's a difficult one as at least one of Iwobi, Bernard and Sigurdsson now has to play. Iwobi was that bad last week that I think I'd just start him because surely, surely he has something to prove after being hooked at HT.

That said I think Carlo will go:

Pickford
Kenny Mina Keane NkNk
Douc Allan Siggy
Iwobi DCL Bernard​

 

[Mr PEN86]

Seen Kenny is back so straight to RB for me surely. Niels to go ham at LB - hope he plays.

Delph, Doucoure and Allan to hold it down in midfield.

Front three of Gordon, DCL and Iwobi/Bernard. Might be a change of shape though given the absentees. Only 3pts will do.

Play Delph for the extra defensive help for Niels.

At 7-2 down they were probably still thinking they could turn it around and win the game. That’s the difference. Big club mentality. Our fans don’t have it.

That's the delusional aspect of their fanbase. But yes we totally lack belief after all the years of rubbish we've put up with

 

[Death]

I don't think people have seen Newcastle play they are such a poor side, They play for freekicks and corner with Wilson, I'm not so big headed to think we'll waltz past them but we can definitely beat them without Richarlison and James, The talk of "we'll get nothing out of this game with no Richarlison/Digne/James" is quite embarrassing to read while we sit top of the league.

We have too many weirdos. The Colombians will be gone legging it soon. Especially if we do lose. Must be some shock to their system after only ever known Everton winning and all euphoria on here, to this.

‘Please only beat us by 1 goal, 14th placed Newcastle that drew with Newport!’

 

[R.Reddington]

We'll manage, and James and Digne will be ready to tear Utd a new one next weekend.

I hope so.

[Charles Hawtrey]

what a goal and what a pass from Harvey at the beginning of the clip.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

The fella right at the start shouting "Wakey, wakey" lol

 

[Jim Hopper]

Our 3 best players out isn’t the best news for this game.

Gonna be a dogs of war game this, be happy if we get a point tbh.
