    Going to miss him offensively and massively defensively against Saka. I worry Davies will be too respectful of the pace and drop off which will gift them momentum.

    Agree. Think we will limp over the line to 5th and all become experts on coefficiency by the end of the season.

    Match Threads Newcastle vs Spurs

    You can almost hear the players' management teams tapping away on their phones, readying their clients' 'didnt go our way today/sorry for the fans' posts

    Our set up and approach is so immature

    Never seen him play, my La Liga viewing days ended when sky stopped their coverage, but im not really keen going for another diminutive talent from that league. Just feels players from other leagues like Serie A and the Bundesliga adjust better to the rigours of the Premier league.

    Its the same pattern every week. Territorial dominance without making it count then the opponents cut through us with any venture forward

    100%. They are hoping something is riding on so they can market it as the battle of the bridge 2.0. They did something similar with the rearranged arsenal fixture a couple of years back. Anything to manipulate drama.

    If we have a buy back clause for Dennis Cirkin I would like to bring him back to rotate with Udogie in the inverted Left back role. Home grown plus club trained for Europe.

    Mid-window review: ins/outs?

    Pleased with our window and even more so that we did what was needed early. Makes a change from this time last year with the late Porro drama. With other clubs, notably our competitors for CL, being restricted by FFP i wonder if we are tempted to go in if a player with the x factor becomes...

    Think the Chelsea game is on the Carabao cup final weekend so could potentially be pushed back should they overcome Boro. If that is the case, 4 out of the next 5 at home could be massive.

    So used to losing out on these 'sliding door' moments. One of the best starts to a January window i can recall.
