Keep hoping for more but have to agree, or at least later.  There was this random guy warming up, might have been Nkunku.  If he can stay fit for a game, I;d like to see him inside left in that role.

With what we have Cucurella doing, the left winger needs to hug the touchline. No one else is providing width on that side.

Good point.  I’m sure Nkunku could do that also, but perhaps not his strength.  Would be nice to have the option.  

I expected Mudryk to burst thru on the near 1-1 chance where Conor then got the ball stuck under his feet.

Not 6th, Newcastle look really good again and likely will win out their remaining fixtures.

Fair but they've been as inconsistent as us and United so they could just as much drop points in those last few fixtures despite their recent good form.

Ward Prowse loves a free kick against us - shut him down!!

Now the famous Poch half time team talk...

Not a good start.

I don't think his overall performance warrants a substitution right now. I don't think he is having a bad game at all, just not as effective as the other attackers around him.

I think he needs to go on loan somewhere. I just don’t think he has any clue somedays about tactics and what his role is. The Spanish poodle is offering more today than Mudryk. He constantly cuts inside into trouble and unless he can hit the ball 5 yards ahead him so he can chase and beat another player to it what does he offer? To me he’s another version of CHO and until he matures I think we are going to see nothing more than what we are seeing now IMO.

BTW this is not very big deal.

4-0 Jackson.

They also had a lot of players out during that run of poor results. Still have some out but their midfield and attack is restored.

4-0 ! Come on!

Still worried?

JACKSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 4-0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chalobah's ball is simply perfect.

Oh yes! Brilliant play Madueke!

 

Great goal. That is more like it, if the pass is on, play it.

Now that’s a good start to the second half!😀😀

Jackson scoring 😀

That is very unselfish by Noni. Well done!!!

That's actually really nice to see considering they were arguing over a penalty a couple of weeks back.

Aye!😀

What did Poch give them for breakfast?

That ball from Chalobah…. Unselfish from Noni, good to see!

Well done Noni. Resisted the temptation to do a Sterling and not pass to a team mate for a tap in.

Ok, the ball was maybe too easy, but it’s the quality of the pass and run from Maudeke.  Beyond that, the pass for the simple 4th - outstanding team play by Noni.  Well done indeed.  That is being ruthless.
