Newcastle v liverpool

[Russ Atmosphere]

[moof]

Fucking Newcastle...had a 20 team accumulator with city to win, all other 19 teams won and of course the barcodes have to go on their yearly 5 game run of impersonating Real Madrid in 1957.

 

I want Geordie blood Brendan. Deliver it to me or face my wrath.

Wow. That is some horrendous luck

[JohnnyH]

The crucifix formation. You nailed it dude.

 

Well we have been awful on crosses.....

[magicrat]

Wow. That is some horrendous luck

Not if he had Liverpool in there . Luck all used up 

[Paco]

Enrique injured

[Jim MM]

Anyone else really worried about this now?

 

I know it's the league cup, but City don't really have what you class as a 'weakened' side. Winning 2-0 there is an incredible feat.

 

They will be pumped for Saturday now.

Seriously, I think they might suffer from a bit of a cup hangover and find it hard to get motivated for a mundane league fixture they should be winning.

[Paco]

anybody wanna know the team?

 

ask pardew

[FanchesterCity]

Newcastle will be full of themselves after stuffing City (fair play to 'em).

 

It'll be their downfall of course, and Liverpool will restore normality.

 

Newcastle 1 : 3 Liverpool

 

Pardew to blame fixture congestion.

[an tha]

How many of those who played in the cup game are likely to play for them?

 

Hopefully Pardew gets excited by that win and starts a few of them, who will then of course show that what happened midweek was a cup shock and one of those exceptional one off results by being shite against us...

[Mustangt125]

Coutinho has to start, surely?

[Paco]

of those fit or still at the club gerrard henderson and borini have scored against them recently plus borini scored a cracker for sunderland against them. Balotelli scored for city against them too.

[Reckoner]

We really should win but make mountains out of molehills like David Copperfield.. He claims he made the Statue of Liberty disappear but it's still there. Talking out of his arse.

What annoys me about this season and in all likelihood will continue to do is the fact we don't even have to be good to get in a good position. Beating villa and Hull at home, not exactly unrealistic or incredible achievements, would have seen us level on points with 2nd place.

But like rafas final season, other teams shiteness will only be outdone by our own staggeringly inept uninspired displays.

I look forward to tika taka between Ming and Lovren under immense pressure just to get the ball to Gerrard who passes it back again.

[Reckoner]

Borini and mario up front for me, or lambert with mario.

He cannot do it by himself, it's not that complicated is it?

[an tha]

When was the last time we scored early?

 

Such a feature of our great run last season and makes such a difference for us

[gingerhulk]

3-5-2 tmz.

 

Mingolet

 

Johnson skrtel lovren

 

Sterling. Moreno

 

Gerrard allen coutinho

 

Henderson

Balotelli

 

my mates as one of the sports analysis and said this is the team

[Fowlers God]

I will take another 4:3 please

[Paco]

rossiter scored in 10th minute v boro

 

in the league sterling scored in the 8th v spurs.

 

we ve replaced the early goals this season with late goals.

[ratcatcher]

Doesnt matter when we score in a game so long as our goal is the winner. Last season was phenomenal, dont see why we should be expected to blow teams away with early goals all the time.

[bouncebrigade]

If we can't win the game, then maybe Bren could lay the smackdown on Slimer.

 

The most electrifying move in sports entertainment.

[Dr. J]

Dreading this. We've come out flat more often than not this season and they will be absolutely flying. Borini and Balotelli up front, please.

[manwiththestick]

People advocating the inclusion of Borini in our starting eleven. If anyone had suggested such a thing eight months ago they'd be carted off to the funny farm.

 

 

This isn't a pop at people suggesting it in our current state, just the sheer lunacy of it considering where we were back then.

Well, that's exactly it. We've lost the best two strikers in the country, haven't we. One for good, one to ebola (bit racist? Maybe. Not meant to be... let's say AIDS (gay AIDS, not black AIDS, that would be even more racist)), so we're going to suffer up front. Borini up front with Balotelli. It's a harsh come down, you're right.

That's what happens when you spend a fortune weakening the team.

[Hades]

Bit sad that we don't have a best XI. It's Sterling and Sturridge + 9. None of the others are a demonstrable step up from the types of flawed players you see at mid table clubs.
