Cicero Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Hazard should be ready to start. I'd give Barkley the nod as well until Kovacic blends in. 3 points would be fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty dire reading considering the mid to lower table existence that Newcastle seemed to have settled for.... Bogey team or not we need to be winning this.. I fully expect Toons to score against us, that may be inevitable and they will probably score first just so we all get to roll our eyes and sigh.. "typical" I then expect us to take the game by the scruff of the neck and brush them aside.... Defeat is not an option! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Do you keep changing your manager to try and get a win here Best time to place us is now. Will take us time to find a solid 11 with form. Took half a season last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We beat all the top teams at home once we got going last season but couldn't beat the one's we played early doors. Same with all our home form, improved dramatically 2nd half.

Oh really, that's what you are going with is it... Well for your information... 25th August 1948 2-2 draw Conveniently Ignores from 25th Sep 1954 - 3rd Nov 1962 ( where we went on a run of 14 wins and 3 draws ) Cup and League 23rd August 1967 1-1 draw 30th August 1967 we lost 5-1 21st August 1968 we lost 3-2 22nd August 1988 1-1 draw 19th August 2001 1-1 draw 25th August 2012 we actually beat you 2-0 ( Hazard & Torres ) I can't speak for other teams but think it would be fair to say that history for you lot against us in early August seems to be fairly good for you regardless of what you are saying...

There's no reason other than pure coincidence that a team from the 60s might have the same results as a team from any other era. I'm talking about us under Rafa. Even in the Championship we got beat a couple of times at home early doors. Rafa's methods take time to materialise. Imo everyone should be able to beat the top sides at home, we are just more likely to do that under Rafa in the 2nd half of the season when we've had more time to tactically cope with this teams weaknesses. We've just started this season with Joselu upfront In our last game at Cardiff our starting 11 was worse than what ended last season. We've got flaws and a lot of work to do, not as much as we had at the start of last season, but it should be easier to play us now than in March (barring anything disastrous going wrong in the season).

To be honest despite our frailties at the back against Arsenal I would expect us to be able to beat you this time round... Looking back on last season we had a few games where we got turned over by teams that in theory we should have had the better of so I don't take anything for granted and especially when we have such a poor record against you.. Got to go for the positives in this, we are playing well going forward and taking our chances thus far.. I think we will concede at some point but if we start the game the same way we did against Arsenal I am not sure you will have the ability to come back from it if you go a couple behind.. Well.. here's hoping.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
