Saint Albert

Right now it looks like we’re sitting back and defending a 0-2 defeat.

Lemina looks like he’s done.

Damn.

I agree.

Uh oh. Lemina took an a stamp on his foot.

Good delivery and decent effort by Carrillo, but straight at keeper. And then JWP forces a save.

The commentator on my feed just described the home crowd as “polite”. I think that falls into the backhanded compliment category.

The performance hasn’t been too bad so far. Hoedt’s lack of skill for the Liverpool goal was unfortunate. Decent chance for Hoj.

At least Lemina’s still good...

Full time: Newcastle 1, Man U 0 Newcastle keeper was good and pulled off a good save at the death. Not the result I was hoping for.

I don’t think it was a rotation policy. For the longest time, Pellegrino just could not identify his best players, resulting in persistently odd team selections. The good news is, there are signs that he’s finally come to an understanding on that front.

Newcastle one up.

It looks like the same side as last week, except Hoj starts instead of Boufal.

He was carried off on a stretcher with a knee injury today. That’s bad news for Huddersfield, he’s one of their best players.

I grew up in a rugby family. I still enjoy watching it, but unfortunately unless I’m missing something the 6 nations is not televised over here.

Morgan was subject to some loud booing from the home Everton supporters as he came on as a second half sub in today’s game against Palace.

Palace are awaiting results of scans on Zaha’s knee. They fear ligament damage and a two months injury layoff... https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/sport/wilfried-zaha-may-miss-two-months-8twjwqlk9 https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/5508954/crystal-palace-wilfried-zaha-two-months-knee-injury/ That’s big trouble for them if he misses many games.

For me, hated is too strong a word. Life is too short to hate some bloke that I never met because he asked to leave the team in pursuit of more money, and more success. Disappointed, yes. Irritated, often, but I don’t hate any of them. That does not mean to say that I don’t enjoy it when things go poorly for them at Liverpool. I enjoy it greatly.

Bloody hell what a goal.

Cracking goal by Wanyama.

Palace and Newcastle end up with a 1-1 draw.

Benteke’s header cleared off the line... Shelvey got away with a blatant shirt pull in the scramble.

I always prefer to see these relegation 6 pointers end in a draw.

Penalty to Palace for shirt pulling. 1-1. Goalie almost got it.
