GW28 - Matchday Thread

Almiron not in Magpies squad

Likewise on Johnson - he was flagged which is annoying but sure

AC active.

FH played

Isak close to scoring there. Off the keeper then the crossbar

After a rewatch it took a big deflection from Aurier and hit the post - enough so that it would have been classed as an OG

Botman you idiot

Dennis goal

There goes the clean sheet.

Dennis scores for Not Forest

Had to be one of the best DGWK trolls to do it as well

not too many calm heads out there. wouldn't be a shock to sea a red card

Isak (Willock)

I considered Isak but didn't do it and he has a double next week

Probably time to reconsider Newcastle defence. No clean sheet in 5 games now, after a run of 6 in a row.

Anderson (Isak)

Varred

Would love to see Isak and Wilson play together upfront. Wilson would definitely be worth getting if that happens

Edit: at least Isak gets the 60 minute point this game. Once he gets to 90 mins per game the matchup might happen (?)

Second edit: Howe said that "while he can manage 90 minutes now, its not 90 minutes of our game style"

I think its Wilson, Isak and Trippier

Isek took ball from Tripper and scored - dunno was that some sort of sportmanship - penalty scored anyway

Sounds like Trippier was just minding the ball (sitting in his account like :) )

Isak goal, no assist

As someone who got rid of Tripper on FH, that was a nervous few minutes as nearly everyone has Tripper - had he took it and scored probably 9 pointer

yea but the goal is worth 9 points, he's on 2 regardless. unless he missed ha.

Raya

Trippier Zinc Mee Chilwell

Kovacic Martinelli Saka Billing

Kane (c) Toney

No subs playing

One of those weekends where I think I have a really good team for the week that's in it, so it'll probably return 40 points or less 😂

Not having an early kick off is a pain.
