That’s true. Although I’m not sure how much I want to see trippier and Dier in the starting XI. Poch needs to get that right next time out.
Also hoping the late winner will have us on a high heading into this one.

I think where we are now is good enough considering the events of the season so far realistically we are not going to challenge or win the league and we are still to go to Liverpool and city, which as we know our record against the top six away is dreadful almost non existent so top 3 would be a fantastic achievement that none of us could complain about.Win on sat and fuck it im giving us an outside chance. Pressure on city and pool. Pool play west ham (who are due a decent result) away on Monday.
I agree but please let us challenge for the title it would be so much more fun.I think where we are now is good enough considering the events of the season so far realistically we are not going to challenge or win the league and we are still to go to Liverpool and city, which as we know our record against the top six away is dreadful almost non existent so top 3 would be a fantastic achievement that none of us could complain about.
It would be a giant win if we could beat Newcastle before City play scum on Saturday. We'd go second and tons of pressure will be heaped on both teams.
Wouldn't it be fun to think that Llatente effectively won the title for us last night.
Arsenal are 7 points back. We win that will stay the same if they win which puts us in 2nd til next match day or go to 10 if they lose, 8 a draw. Win/win so long as we do our job first.yeah but both of them can't lose so question is, who do we want to put more pressure on, Anal or Citeh?
How on earth did you predict that ? ?
amazing what the team now are though, massive late winners against Burnley, Fulham and Watford, 2 coming from behind, it isnt a fluke there is something about this team that always believes, it must be so frustrating for our top 4 rivals, 6 points won very late on in the last month or so
Chelsea look like they are imploding now. To lose 0-4 away at Bournemouth and have the manager publicly question (for the second time in just over a week) if he can motivate the players points to them being the team first to drop out of the CL race. Between Man U and Arsenal for 4th/5th, all the momentum with Man U. Hopefully we can hang in there at third and stay within touching distance of Man C / Liverpool.

Big game against Newcastle now
A win would mean that either we gain ground on City, or further pull away from Arsenal and strengthen our CL place for next season
But we need that win...!
Edit: Opps, if City and Arsenal draw that would see both of the things above happening. Perhaps that's the best outcome?

Arsenal won’t catch us...Man Utd are the danger but we are 9 clear plus goal diff. We should do it ok .Arsenal are 7 points back. We win that will stay the same if they win which puts us in 2nd til next match day or go to 10 if they lose, 8 a draw. Win/win so long as we do our job first.
I get that people feel Newcastle is a big game but actually it's just another game, they are all the same now and we seem to be handling it pretty well on that basis.
