Newcastle doing what we embarrassingly couldn’t.

That finish from Isak, you just know that Jackson is smashing it over the bar or hitting it straight at a defender.

And he will 100% still lead our line Matchday one next season.

Finishing off the day on a good note, winning goal for Strasbourg today scored by Andrey Santos ... his 8th of the season (the same tally as ALL of our midfielders combined)

Well done to Newcastle on winning their first major trophy in 70 years.

Credit where it is due.

Have we all agreed not to make any sportswashing comments for 24 hours to allow Newcastle fans to have their long-awaited moment?

REASON WHY HOWE IS LIGHT YEARS IN FRONT OF MARESCA

1. WANTED TO WIN A TROPHY

2. PLAYERS ALLOWED TO PASS FORWARD

3. PLAY PLAYERS IN CORRECT POSITIONS

4. DOES WHAT HE WANTS TO DO NOT WHAT HE IS TOLD TO DO

5. PLAYS HIS STRONGEST TEAM

Happy for Dan Burn. Has always made the absolute most of less than stellar ability. And a lovely fella, too, they say. Dreams do come true

Look at Newcastle, desire, commitment, energy, always looking to attack with pace., and no desire to control the game with slow, possession based football. .

And they'd a plan for attacking corners that they'd worked on for 3 weeks to take VVD and Konate out of the game. That caused Liverpool lots of problems and of course delivered Burn's goal. I can't imagine for one minute that Maresca could come up with something like that - he's out of his depth

Your government thinks their sportswashing is the good sort of sportswashing though

If SEZs are anything to go by, I assume that's because our government(s) are all in favour of random criminals plundering state assets.

"Well we don't behead people for supporting the wrong billionaire" - you weren't wrong about the bar being low.

We've had SEZ proposals in Australia (especially NSW) for over a decade now and while they were never technically implemented, successive governments have simply made the laws apply to the whole state rather than just specific zones. Socialism for me, but not for thee

He can't even put anyone on the back post !

Look at Arsenal's goal on Sunday - dreadful.

I mean wtf do they do in training ??? Tippy tappy sideways and backwards and kiss my arse or your not playing?

Liverpool legends v Chelsea legends

Chelsea Legends team: Cudicini, Bosingwa, Huth, Gallas, Babayaro, Wise, Mikel, Makelele, Ramires, Hasselbaink, Malouda.

Some of those would be better then some we have now

Chelsea official app want 6 quid for the game

Its on you tube free

Like hell that unibrow, photobombing twat is considered a Chelsea legend.

So it was £6 on the Chelsea site/app to watch it, but free on Liverpool's official Youtube channel, says it all really, hardly surprising!

Put myself through the joys of talksport on site today and it’s just reinforced how the grief junkies are the most entitled & deluded fans in all of football.

TAA is going to Madrid, Madrid is the undisputed biggest club in the world, it’s no debate.

They’re all harping on like he’s downgrading and a traitor.

He’s won everything there is to win there, he owes them nothing. Yet somehow they think he should take a paycut, say no to living in the slums of Madrid to stay in Casa del Bootle, sign an extension so they could get a transfer fee as opposed to him sealing a huge signing on fee.

That manky lot from the green side of Glasgow are bad but I think the Scouse might just pip them as the absolute worst fans in all of football.

Another good result for Strasbourg as they keep climbing up the table.

Fulham getting thrashed at home by Palace, Silva underestimated them, started a weakened team and Palace went full on,

Brighton v Forest playing a really, really boring FA Cup quarter final. That this Brighton eliminated us says a lot.

Forest look the better side even without wood

Are you Chelsea in disguise?

Feels like a total certainty that Hürzeler will be our manager one day soon.
