Newcastle outplayed them for half an hour but have nothing up front. Clinical finish by Lacazette to round things off...

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Yeah, they played ok once the first went in but you've got to look who they're up against. Newcastle have no tactics at all and they look as fit as all Steve Bruce's teams do.

Massive missed opportunity if we miss out on the top 5-6 this season. Every time I watch someone like Spurs, Everton or Man Utd they look so, so average. If we’d have turned just 2 of our 12 draws in to wins, we would have been pushing Chelsea for 4th.

Massive shame.

The spurs ,Everton and man united who we haven't beaten this season.

I don't think we are a bad side. Far from it we are very good but
1. We are not a clinical side
2 we are guilty of gift goals
3 we are in a run of bang average results or worse. One win this year in all competitions.

We have been caught by Everton in the league, still have to play three teams who have beaten us in the league we need to get into winning ways and quickly. Starting with Espanol and Norwich. Two wins there will boost confidence.

 

[Deleted Cyber]

Villa going forward look great. Defensively they suck

 

[The Bear]

I'm assuming we want a Chelsea win or draw tonight? Personally I don't think we'd catch Chelsea, we're too inconsistent, so them to win would do nicely.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Chelsea win, I agree we won't catch them.

Looks like they're 100% after a new keeper in the summer.

 

[The Bear]

I mean, a draw would only keep us 6 points behind them, and with a good run of fixtures coming up, but I still don't back us to go on any kind of winning run.

 

[Lupo]

Chelsea yeah plus its United. I hate United

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Chelsea win probably eliminates fourth but gives us a slight improvement of our chances of fifth.

Plus watching United get absolutely fucking dicked is always a pleasure.

If we can keep up our quality of the last few games, I see no reason why we can't go on a winning run of 3-4 games....whether we do is another thing

I mean we should beat all of Norwich, Brighton, West Ham and Bournemouth as none of them are any good. But we so rarely do that. I reckon we'll draw at least two of them (and probably get something at Spurs).

Chances are you're right but I believe we just too good to go all season without stringing a few wins together

 

[Jack Regan]

Not sure how Maguire hasn't been sent off for kicking Batshuayi in the nuts.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Seemed essentially the same thing as Son vs Chelsea which got given as a red.

Baffled!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Christ, Batshuayi is shite. Not once have I ever watched him for any team and thought he looked even close to what Chelsea paid.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Bruno Eastwood still on the same setting as he was against us a couple of weeks ago.

And back to that spurs chelsea... Ever catch those racists on the cameras yet?
Twas clearly "yid yid yid" at the time, media spunked themselves silly but never came back with anything except an away fan being racist.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Lovely header that. He can do it, just only when he fancies it. Annoying player

 

[Jack Regan]

Well worked goal, lovely ball in and a top header.
