I hate to point out the obvious but were any of you questioning the player's attitude last week when we came back from 2-0 down against Brighton? We were beaten by a far superior side today. Nobody in the bottom half would have lived with Isak, Gordon, Tonali etc. There's a reason the Saudis spent hundreds of millions on these players. I think we can just point out there are too many players that aren't at the level required. I don't think it's any deeper than that.

Three completely different players. We needed a defensive midfielder on the bench.

El Khannouss was the only one that looked like a Premier League player. Coady and Vestergaard did well to keep Isak quiet for the first half. Hermansen make some nice saves. Other than that you're looking at 1s and 2s out of 10. It was every bit as hopeless as the Brentford debacle.

What a shite day

Our fullbacks are putrid.

Obviously beaten by the better side (by far) but I still cannot believe Guimaraes was not sent off. The referee completely bottled it.

Oh ****.

Jelly and ice cream when Hamza snaps Guimaraes.

Hopefully that Bruno **** does his ACL. Can't stand the verminous twat.

Reminder that this Newcastle midfield cost well in excess of £150m and their attack cost over £120m.

Mavididi is such a waste of space in games where we're not expected to attack. He's not a counter attacking winger.

It's incredible how many shots we concede. On target for another 30+ game.

Newcastle look all over the place here.

What do you mean too good for youth football? Got to be better than nothing?

Is Alves even playing that well for the U21s? Never really seen his name come up outside of FoxesTalkers who think he's the reincarnated Stanley Matthews.

I assume he wants pace on the counter. Buonanotte to come off the bench for the last half hour.

El Khannouss is starting.

7pm on a sunday is horrible for fans.

And you have people asking if you can stand up to let them pass.

Why do you tell yourself this blatant lie?

Nah this is all sob story. You wanted to go to the pub to watch another football match so you left early. Just say it as it is?

Probably more of a "we noticed you weren't at the game, do you realise there's a resale platform?" type email.

Does KDH come with £60m in his pocket?

He's got two settings. The first is a slow, lackadaisical approach where he jogs about and doesn't impact the play. The other is when he's charging about the pitch using his pace and strength to get after the ball and make things happen. When he's in the first mode he's a liability but when he's on it I don't see any Premier League midfielder coping with his physicality. He's got the ability to walk all over other sides.

Hermansen - 7 Justin - 6 Coady - 8 - MOTM Vestergaard - 7 Kristiansen - 6 Soumare - 7 Ndidi - 7 McAteer - 6 El Khannouss - 6 Ayew - 4 Vardy - 8
