Newcastle team talk is easy for Bruce..

"Right lads, just shoot, from anywhere, all the time....SHOOOOOTTTT!"...

Line up beggars belief tbh

Why have we got TWO left backs on the bench and no sign of Callum again 

miss read stating line up lol

Edited February 15, 20215 yr by Andy2461

We'll be alright. 

 

Won't we? Somebody please say something reassuring.

Kepa.....

 

ok expecting to get slaughtered but has to happen at some point 70 mil played his way to Spain number one at a point in time, still young we can’t leave him to gather dust even to sell him he needs to perform and here’s the controversial bit his ceiling may be higher than Edu’s 

Some lovely evening stress lined up for us tonight

Because he had one flipping clean sheet against a mid table Championship Squad, we're going to start him in a PL game with 4th place on the line?

Dang it Tuchel, I was really starting to like you.  This better flipping work.  

I guess that when you have been as bad as Kepa has been, you need to take any glimmer of a positive performance as an opportunity.

Calum is starting isn't he?

Win or lose...

Need some logic from manager...

Yes we will win even with Kepa...

 

I want to hear the logic of this from the manager, but I'm not so confident that Kepa doesn't find a way to screw this up.

No sign of Callum on the bench, you mean  ?

He's starting... 

Keep calm and watch the game.  Kepa will surely prove his level today.  one way or the other.

Hopefully that was reassuring for everyone

This is exactly like when I make a string of changes on Football Manager for a cup game against a sh*t team and then don’t pay attention when submitting my team for the next league match!

That is not the reassurance I am craving.

Just like Torres again, all this false hope.

He's rubbish and just like with Torres we will never properly move on as a club until we accept it and take the L on the chin.

You mean havertz? Calum is playing or maybe chilli ? Don’t think he fits the managers style tbh. 
 

Tell you what anyone said that line up will push us from 9th to the top 4 a few weeks ago no one would believe you so he is doing something right. 
 

Imagine if he can get all out big cash signings firing. 

When will the board realise that the best way to maintain any sort of value for Kepa is to never give him any opportunity to showcase his ineptness. 

Looking at the bigger picture the best result for us tonight is probably a crazy 5-4 win.

Could well be right but they have to try, look board don’t make team selections but when he was being primed for the job they would have a list of wants one of them may have been sort out kepa and get timo and havertz going 

We can't win tonight ... if Kepa is sh*t we'll lose, and if he plays well, he'll stay in the team for our next game at Southampton  ?
