Just watched the Allardyce interview. Christ. What a nobber. He genuinely believes he’s an elite manger who’s just been hard done by doesn’t he? Awful.

would also say he probably influenced Pearson when he was his assistant at Newcastle so may have his fingerprints on 2015-16 😜

Without KDB's surging runs they are actually quite static and much easier to defend against.

Very quiet at the Etihad. Same at Arsenal last night. Big club entitlement perhaps.

Man City never impress me, even at our place they’re largely quiet considering how good their team is.

 

Eithad has as many tourists as Old Trafford and Anfield.

[Paninistickers]

If Man City are to have a bum game, better tonight than v Leeds 

[CrispinLA in Texas]

Putting my money on Man city drawing 0-0 this game.... pendulum swinging towards Arsenal me thinks 🥴

This is what I was thinking. Throw some points away tonight, have something to prove next. The monster destroys Leeds and elite manager, Sam

Are we just swapping a Man City win vs Leeds against Leeds win vs West Ham? 

 

EDIT: well, maybe that goal makes a lot of this moot?

1-0 Man City, Ake

[ian__marshall]

Awful defending from West Ham there. 

[Nalis]

Looks like Liverpool will mathematically remain in the race for the top 4 by the time we play them.

[Nolucklcfc]

Anyone see West Ham being in trouble? I don’t personally

Which also means Newcastle now won't be taking it easy and celebrating by the time we go there shortly after....marvelous

[PhillippaT]

Haaland's not as good at winning pens as Vardy

Silver lining is that Newcastle have a midweek match at home between those weekends, so hoping they have the top 4 sealed in that match if not after they hopefully beat Leeds.

Fulham are far from on the beach in this game, and will not be next week either.

I reckon they're fine. Think it might be late but they arent losing every game and will probably beat Leeds to stay safe.

If we get anything against them it will be a minor miracle!!

People hoping that teams are going to take it easy for whatever reason are clutching. Each position is worth 2m.

If you was a Newcastle player you’re not exactly in a position to take it easy when you could be replaced

My thoughts exactly 

[Fear Of The Fox]

1 or 2 more ManCity goals would be nice. Need West Ham to have a worse GD than us. 

[FoyleFox]

Premier League season goals record for Haaland. And still more games to play.

We aren't going to catch West Ham.

[Fear Of The Fox]

Nice to see that lad Haaland finding the net eventually. He hasn't scored since their last game.

If we’re thinking about catching West Ham then that means Leeds will have won at least one game 

I agree that if we’re catching West Ham then we’re well safe anyway

Why not? 
We beat them and we’re one point behind them.

We don’t know what will happens, but they are catchable easily
