And that is the good and bad of Mount and his problem staying in the no 10 role. 

Well I must admit I have enjoyed seeing the ball being play forward as opposed to backwards a sideways by the back 3.  Kovacic has been a beast in midfield, always looking to drive forward...really is a shame he can't shoot worth sh*t though.  Timo, never gives in even when the chips are down and he has a fat lip...expect 2 or 3 goals the 2nd half unless Bruce changes his formation.

Our strikers are now on a collective THIRTY TWO goals for the season, and all three are into double figures. More please ?

Don’t forget Michy and his one goal at Palace 

Callum can defend as well as any winger I’ve seen 

Hudson-Odoi's defensive game has improved massively. 

that’s how you play for the badge

 

please don’t stop

It's a fine final score but I'm not sure you can count a PL clean sheet from Kepa.  

Stranger things have happened, like Timo scoring a goal 

I have been really impressed with CHO fully showing his potential he's been a nightmare for Newcastle

I'd still like to see more of him and Reece down the right. Constantly interchanging and over lapping

Worst EPL team I have seen this season by some distance. St. Maximin is the only player they've got.

Well they can't be the worst, they're 7 points off relegation zone. 

Another half time... Another clean sheet... Another 0 shots on target conceded... Any questions @Munkworth? 

I think from everyone a good performance!

Nothing like 14 Games of Foreplay, then Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

What a scene that was, Timo laughing like a kid then getting smacked in the face - again.

The link up play with Mount and CHO is very good. 

Good half being picky should be more. Pleased for Timo he has continued to avoid hiding during his drought and now been rewarded.

He's probably listening to episode 1 of Criiiiiiiiiime files

Good half that. We look dangerous on the counter for once and I'm so happy for Timo.

Let's hope we can push on in the second half and may score one or two more, and hope they don't get a shot on target !!

Thoroughly enjoyable first half!! 

Kovacic is a different player in the pivot, put him in a midfield 3 and it's a different player, very odd. 

I must admit that I've enjoyed to watch this half. Our discipline as a team has improved a lot, we track back with full speed when the opponent receives the ball, our possession looks better with attacking mind, our defending looks simple thanks to Newcastle but every player knows his position. 

Kovacic is so good, Werner deserves to get his goal, he made the first goal and scored the second. Maybe a hattrick game for him.

Hudson Odoi and Alonso are actually like fowards, big improvement for CHO in his defending ability. 

Newcastle are looking poor, we have to make it 5-0 here. One goal for Abraham, poor lad. Let's hope it's not something bad! COME ON CHELS!! 

Never doubted Timo. Also thanks Newcastle for neither sitting deep nor pressing.

Liverpool back where they belong let’s hope klopp leaves and it’s another 30 years, wtf are west ham playing at btw cheeky muppets
