OTF

Nice block Miley sparing Livramento's blushes.

Fuck this dopey faced ref.

Foul called against Osula for existing.

It's a dreadful watch.

Has anyone ever seen Anthony Gordon and Woltemade's mum in the same room?

He'll play up front.

Back to our normal shape surely now.

That's a free kick from Osula apparently and yet Konate on Monday two hands into the back of Barnes was fine.

What a crap call from the ref there, that was not a foul on Osula, Bogle was impeding him nowhere near the ball.

Bruno's normally much better at protecting the ball, and failing that winning a free-kick, can only theorise that he's not fully recovered from the Liverpool game and/or not enjoying the wet pitch and their enthusiasm.

Miley on for Ramsey, I'm guessing partly precautionary for his ankle and party having someone more familiar with our systems.

Ref pretty much random over what is and isn't a free-kick.

There was a handball on that Murphy shot.

In his defense he put in two balls earlier that could easily have been scored off.

Yes, lost our way in general, turning it over way too much.

Pope like a baby giraffe on ice skates

That's the one

Haven't you heard, he's more of a trequartista.

Hahaha at the song we're very loudly singing 🤣

Blind ref and linesmen, clearly off them.

Looks ok thankfully, was trapped awkwardly.

Fucking hell Longers has just fucked his replacement.

Fantastic to see Anthony Gordon sitting with Nick Woltemade to watch his first game as a Newcastle United player.

Good point, he was younger also. Though he had had at least a few training sessions having signed 5ish days prior. If Woltmade himself is keen it could happen. If there's any position that could slot in like that, it's a striker. Just having him at the match or on the bench would be some achievement given where we were 24 hours ago. This lad is the exciting signing @Andrew was calling for.

I think JSL is a quality player but this kid is much better with his feet and much more versatile. Certainly worth more given his age and also you can imagine his wages will be lower as well. Nice timing too with the signing of Thiaw so he'll have a German speaking teammate also in the frame for national team selection. Schär also effectively speaks German, Krafth a variation and we also still have that über fotze.
