Pretty charitable use of the word 'legend' there... 

They missed the space bar.

It's like how they use the word 'star' when speaking about someone and transfer rumors.. like whoa we are talking about Andy Carrol here

A sure sign of ageing is when you aim for a particular thread and miss by a mile. ok,  I’ll try again.

The title should read Geordie Arabia, surely ?

(no I won’t get me ghutra)

I agree with everything you said except that Loftus cheek is better than Jorginho. Loftus cheek is still learning the position while Jorginho is the Don DADA of the position in our team. Loftus cheek is a good sub if we want to add more physicality to the position 

It shows you are ignorant of the defensive midfield position. Now I'm writing this to you after the draw against Burnley. It feels as if it was our midfield that collapsed against Burnley that made them to get their equaliser. It feels as if there was nobody to mark them in the midfield, and then eventually they got their equaliser.

That is what I'm talking about, Jorginho cannot mark in the midfield. When we are playing against a team that may give us problem with their attack, then we cannot play Jorginho in that position because he cannot support the defence at all.

Assuming it was Loftus cheek in front of that defense, he will assist the defence a bit, and Burnley will not be able to score us. That is what I'm talking about. And Loftus Cheek would still have helped us going forward to support our attack.

Your ignorance is beyond belief. You claim the midfield collapsed and that is why we dropped points . We lost points because our attackers wasted chances to score.. 

Besides Kante is his partner in the double pivot so if Jorginho is culpable then so is Kante.    

I actually believed we lost control of the midfield when Barkley went off for Loftus cheek. Barkley was helping to recycle possession.. 

Tuchel lost the plot on this one... 

P.S..... it is cowardly to dig a player right after we drop points . Where were you when we went on a winning run jorginho in midfield
