Even with our worst manager on record, we still managed to do better than the Man and Newcastle United in the CL group stage. We just need to find a way to get there, then we will make some inroads. I think our best chance is to win the cup final, then win the Europa league the year after, the league is tough and I don't see us cracking the top 4 or 5 in the next 2-3 seasons.

Injuries galore has started taking it's toll on Newcastle. 

You can see it last game vs Everton and it just snowball. It will be very difficult for Howe to stop it unless he start getting his injured player back. 

😁😁😁

This usually what happen when you have injuries galore. For short term, you can do some magic but then you keep playing the same player over and over again and fatigue will catch up, form will drop and they will also get injured and it just snowball.

Winning a cup final is pretty hard we lost quite a few in the recent years even before everything changed.

So Potter to Man Utd... ?

Interesting that none of the 8 sides that have won their CL Groups are currently in 1st place in their domestic league !

Not meant to be easy, but think it's easier than performing over 38 games against more motivated teams.

Andrey Santos not even on the bench for the Forest home game against Spurs this evening. 

Spurs 1-0 up at HT

I know we’re very disappointed about his lack of football at Forest, but is it at all possible that there’s a reason why Forest are barely entertaining him? Poor training, not fit enough, not physically strong enough, not good enough? It’s unlikely they’re not using him just to annoy us.

Absolutely. 

Despite his tender years, I was expecting so much from him ... especially after he got picked for the Brazil senior side ... disappointing start with us to put it mildly ! Feel sorry for the Brazilian Vasco da Gama fan who was bigging him up on here ... 

London is more cosmopolitan that Nottingham, he might have problems settling in.

 

Kudus is looking a rather good buy for West Ham isn't he.

All the while we had a free run at him and chose not to follow up on a player who arrives in the box and scores regularly, why woild we need such a player? Lol

Brighton are suicidal

Well they lost to us twice, cannot expect much from them.

 

A favour from Villa would be nice. Keep Brentford behind us until they next play at least...

The VAR boys against Wolves again.

 

Will they finally get some calls their way against us?

The modern coach refusing to switch up tactics no matter the opposition is so bizarre to me. Lewis Dunk is the only reason why this isn't 5-0 to Arsenal, and it's because of some old fashioned defending. 

It's dull watching every team try and play exactly the same way.

I do wonder who made the decision not to follow up and sign him as he’s looking like a bargain at the moment

Indeed. We have been crying out for goals, and he is getting them. 

I would imagine Newcastle and City look at him and Paquetta as star players who could add something to their sides.

Havertz looking like a bargain at £60m up to 5 goals now

Havertz did have a few matches where he scored with us then it dried up let's see how he goes.

Nicely taken goal though.

The most overrated atmosphere in the country.

What will happen to our 100m n 40m winger then?

Mudryk left, Palmer right, Kudus and Nkunku swapping between 10 and 9.

No chance. Mudryk will never play if we sign kudus and the board won't ever let it happen. 

Sarri vs Tuchel in R16 of the Champions league !

Assuming neither of them gets sacked beforehand LOL
