[Bjornebye]

Good luck.

Matip and Jones in training today.

[sir roger]

Read that Guimaeres, Wilson and Krafth are definitely out, and they are waiting to see how St Maximim reacts to a knock which he got yesterday.

[Reckoner]

Sorry about the emojis, they are not mine.

St Maximim looked like he tweaked a hammy to me Roger rather than a knock.

 

Im going for 4-3 to us!

[sir roger]

Hope so, ds, but Howe was reported as describing it as a knock.

[ZonkoVille77]

0-0 all over it. 

 

[3 Stacks]

If Saint-Maximin, Guimaraes and Wilson are all out, we have a slim shot at a victory.

The original and best showing the cheap imitators how it is done.

I want to see how other teams cope with 8 to 10 first team players out. Bring on the injury crises

I agree. While Jota and Kelleher were injured as a result of internationals in the summer, it doesnt account for the others who picked up injuries in training or pre season games.

 

WTF went wrong?

He was definitely holding his hamstring walking off, although I suppose itnciild be a dead leg or something. 

 

Is that new forward they've signed available? I'm assuming he is? 

[an tha]

It is deffo a hamstring concern with Saint-Maximin

[Bjornebye]

Our second string should beat a full strength Newcastle. Fuck them. 

 

 

Oh and start Collymore. 

[m0e]

We'll absolutely batter these cunts.

Probably. 

[s(k)aturation]

 

6-0.

Goal difference could be important for 4th spot.

 

 

[Josef Svejk]

The biggest net spenders in world football over the past year. Certainly until United confirm their latest one.

[Pete]

Quite like this winning feeling.  Carry on doing it please reds.
Thanks ever so much.

We havent spent that much.

Howe on team news: "Maxi [Allan Saint-Maximin] is a worry for us at the moment with a hamstring. It was late in the game off the back of a sprint to try and save a goal. Kieran Trippier should be fine."

 

Howe on Bruno Guimaraes' fitness: "He's doing well. I don't know about this game but hopefully not far after if he doesn't make it. He's very positive, in good spirits and he's desperate to get back. He's a big player for us so we need to get him back as quickly as possible."

Hopefully they'll want to make sure he's available for the palace home game at the weekend.

Apparently Newcastle have until 75 minutes before Wednesday's kick off to get that Isak's work permit sorted due to delays with the Home Office else he cant play.
