I dont usually go into stats. But looking at last nights the most significant(apart from goals) was duels. We won them all. tackles, ariel duels. Interceptions. Great derby stats to win.

….a totally pragmatic and effective manager working with the players at his disposal. Some of the stuff being played before the deduction was actually decent given the lack of quality in the squad.

You'd think personally he'd be chomping at the bit to start next game after that performance, beat Brentford at home and we are safe so who are we resting him for?

He'll need the rest, having used up every one of his super human powers to completely evade the attentions of the best centre half in football history.

Good post this, even before the win against Forest and the 3 points last night, the reality was that we were better off points wise than last season at the same stage, moreover there's been 3 or 4 draws/losses that we should easily of won but for...

Enjoy digging at fans? His critics have absolutely piled in on Dyche let’s have that straight. Even before he joined there were fans who didn’t want him. It’s been absolutely relentless all season, games when we played well but didn’t win early...

I don’t mind if they cut us open, I just can’t stand when we lose these games through giving a pen away or a hand ball or we go down to ten then get beaten, or there’s a refereeing controversy to gift them points. If they batter us far enough but...

Exactly To add to this Gordon was basically sold as he arrived, I know it will go down under Lampard’s net spend figures but Dyche essentially lost his best attacking asset as he walked through the door and had no replacement in January for...

Godfrey can't play Saturday. He always get caught on the diags. McNeil plays so central now. He's barely a winger. With Doucs fasting might be worth playing McNeil behind Dom on Saturday.

They are a strange bunch, I've never hated United, Chelsea or Arsenal or anyone outside of the RS, but Newcastle are that team and fan base. I've never bought all that lovable Geordies who are so polite and friendly, yes some of them are alright...

You think Luton can score against a defence that quadruple winners Man City failed to score against twice this season

Some great saves obviously but equally he kicked 4 or 5 top tier balls into their final third - as a team we don't get up the pitch quick enough in support to make anything from it. He handled the heckling really well today and bloody hell the...

Agree with this, was one of the few first half actually showing for the ball and willing to receive it, unfortunately the movement in front of him was terrible, too many of them doing nothing to lose markers. That being said he's not above...

Calvert-Lewin??? How long are we going to keep starting him. All round game abysmal again against City. Keep hearing excuses but reality is that he's finished.

That's not true is it
