Hopefully that’s not all we had and we’ve saved some juice for the 2nd half.

I’m a bit concerned about the play of Romeu and JWP but it would be brave of Ralph swap one out for Diallo.

Get at them early and perhaps get Tella on for Moussa or Ely on 60-65 minutes.

Solent commentators a little unfair on Djenepo. Thought he was clearly offside for the first skied miss. On the second he shot twice but was blocked both times. 

Great to see Ely playing well. that seems like a total bonus for us.

He was onside, they showed it on stream.

He also had a clear shot of goal (on his strong foot) which he turned up to turn back and get a shot blocked when the defenders had got back into position.

But had he shot first time it would have been really hard for the keeper to stop it.

Djenepo wasn't offside so it's a terrible miss. Also missed another good chance.

Livramento needs to release the ball better. Too greedy in the dribble.

Adams a bit slow today.

Romeu big weak link. Messed up a number of good positions being caught on the ball.

Having said that, we're by far the better team.

I'd like to see Dialo for Romeu and Broja for Adams later. Also Tella for Djenepo at some point.

Not being in the lead is criminal really after that 45.

First one was dreadful, agree second not so clear cut.

Please tell me this is not going to be another shit show at St James Park where we hand them 3 points on a plate. We should be pissing this. Too many long range shots early on when a pass would have been a better choice. Let's not throw this away because Newcastle are absolutely dire.

We look like a much better team than them but they have a couple of guys that are real game changers. We don’t really have that. We have to graft hard to win whereas they can get away with an off day but St Max smashing in a screamer.

Newcastle defending with 9 men back to the wall makes it difficult. This is where we miss Danny. But with the game opening up we have more opportunities, provided we keep strong at the  back.
