My name is Chris and I'm a Newcastle United fan

I like other stuff too, but that's not important right now

So, I sent Eddie and the team my email about how they need to score more goals to win games to get more points

Surprised they haven't thought of it before

They never reply but that's to be expected, it even says in their email address "no reply" which is nice to set my expectations like that #NUFC

At least city won't sit in a low block against us. The games we looked a little bit like our old selves were maybe Liverpool Barca Spurs - teams that wanted to have a go at us and the games went a bit end-2-end (even though we lost 2 of them) #NUFC

Hope he gets a well earned rest and misses City's next game 🤝 😉
Per @fbref.com, only five players have recorded the following in a Premier League game (since 2017/18):

✪ 3+ shots on target
✪ 3+ key passes
✪ 3+ passes into penalty area
✪ 3+ carries into penalty area
✪ 3+ successful take-ons
✪ 3+ fouls won

Jérémy Doku is the youngest.

Who from the 1st team squad is not away with their country?

Ramsdale
Botman
Schar
Tripps
Joelinton
Ramsey
Willock
Miley(?)
Murphy
Barnes
Osula (inj?)
Wissa (inj?)

Just wondering who Eddie gets to train with for next two weeks #NUFC
Tonali only playing 1 of the Itay games this break is good for us fitness/tiredness wise

Also, the fact he's so crucial to Italy that they're resting him to avoid being banned for any play-off is another good sign 👍

Ever dreamed of a Vice City inspired Midfield Maestro illustration?

No?...

Well, no one asked to be two points off relegation after eleven games, yet here we are.

The Hall & Livramento thing has been lodged in my brain for a year. We don't function as well without them defensively or offensively

We really need depth there. Tripps and Burns practically deserve statues but they can't be our depth at full back for much longer

#NUFC
literally a EPL record. Tino and Hall seem to me to be absolute cornerstones to Eddie's system and the perfect complimentary fullback pair for how he likes us to play. I feel sometimes they're the most important part of our game.

I was telling City fans in the summer that Tino would never be allowed to leave

I said Hall & Tino were more important to the way we play than Isak

I really think our midfield 3 works best (as long as J7 is there) when we have Tino and Hall on. We can survive without one coz of Tripps quality
I know it was late in the game but again the midfield 3 played straight through the middle and then no where near to claim the second ball after burns tackle on edge of box #nufc

I am dying to have Tino and Hall back as our starting fullbacks. I know Tripps is a leader with great ball delivery but we're so much more in control with Hall.

Our young fullbacks have been outstanding this season IMO, and they will be critical against Liverpool on Wednesday considering their attacking threat down the flanks

Huge test for the young lads but they've done well so far..

We're really reliant on our fullbacks at the moment when playing out - that's a lot of responsibility on Tino and Hall who are still young. Think they've done brilliantly!

Some people have very short memories. We’ve lost the same amount of games as Liverpool. Eddie will sort it. #nufc

Away from #NUFC business, it looks like a City v Arsenal title race this year eh? City went through their refresh last season and look fairly scary again

wouldn't wanna be the next team to play them... 😳

Also, having Nick as a deeper forward who is the fulcrum for all our play will allow is to congest the middle of the park - Bruno, Nick, Hall, and Sandro to a lesser extent all are happy in tight spaces, wriggling through or drawing fouls.

This should draw the opponents defence forwards also
#NUFC
Craig Hope suggesting in his latest that Nick is the "missing piece if someone's puzzle, but not ours" but if we still had Isak we'd look even worse IMO

We have faced the 2nd highest amount of low block of any team in the league, the old 'run into space behind' hasn't worked since March
