He has yet to show that he can successfully manage a side playing in multiple competitions. Look at Villa this season. Not sure their squad is miles better. It's where we should be #nufc

If Pardew or McClaren are the manager for a performance and tactics like that we'd be screaming for the sack.

And you agree a new deal that allows that to happen on your terms. Which we didn't do with the swede.
Tonali is not a concern. It's 2029!! We'll have had 3 new sporting directors by then

Really not sure what we can do about that other than say well done to them. They move the ball so quickly. One touch and boom. It's v impressive

I think if Tuchel leaves England in summer it's v difficult to resist a home Euros with England. And he will be aware there are probably less days in front than behind at NUFC.
Quite happily swap if that happens and have TT at Newcastle

Always made the wrong choice. Hanging onto it for a second too long. He wants space and time he doesn't have. It's like watching Longstaff

Can't believe Ramsdale let in the winner against Arsenal and the Brentford and West Ham equalisers from the bench.
Pope has been responsible for 3 of the games we've lost winning positions from. Ramsdale one, and it's hardly a howler tonight

He's probably already given away three trying to play out from the back beforehand
Pointless debate. He wasn't playing. People wanted a keeper change.

This is harsh. Know you're not a fan of Ramsdale but he's at full stretch and least he might expect is the big oaf in front of him sticks out a leg
