Match Thread: Newcastle v Liverpool

[miller0863]

Arsenal 2-0 up, City and Chelsea with easy wins, unfortunate time for us to run out of steam.

[Insidious]

It could also end up being seen as the performance and screw up from our backline that cost us the title.

Nah not for me.

If you get 11 wins, 2 draws and a loss from your opening 14 games and find yourself 7 points clear just over a third of the way through the season, you don't point at a draw with 24 matches to go as the moment that cost you - especially in a match where (in terms of performance) you arguably could say merited 0 points.

Having a poor first half is crap, being ahead at the end and dropping points from a winning position is crap and an abysmal refereeing performance is crap - so I will (begrudgingly!!!) take the point I think by the end of the week, especially if we beat Everton.

Results like beating Man City buys us a little wiggle-room and we "spent" that tonight - it happens. If we get back on the proverbial horse quickly we will be grand - and we still get to play Chelsea, Man City and Arsenal again this season to further influence our destiny.

Not the best performance, not the worst result.

I see the entitled cry babies are out in force. Some of you need to go and have a lie down.

Thanks CC. Likewise. Not many of the old crowd left.

He has too many

His errors saw the wheels come off last season

100%. December never has and never will be when any team doesn't win the title.
We will have bumps in the road. This won't be the last but so will the other teams.
One concern is some players looking tired,there was a few tonight.

Drop points against the BS who were visited by Dr Wolves today, and the 'are they losing their bottle' narratives will start being pushed, if they haven't already started.

We were shit we still got a draw....good sign really........

[justme]

shame we didnt win and im annoyed at that turd with black on.. But i fancy us against Everton they don't have the quality of switch of play like Newcastle.. we are still in a great position to think we've only lost once and its the first week of December.. the top 3/4 still have to play each other again.so will take points of each other.. and we have the reverse fixtures in the second half of the season. we've done well. need to keep going..

Agree on the outlook. 24 games to play.

Take a point and move on to the next game.

Couldn't see the game tonight, so can't comment on it.

Hard to assess the performance on posts.

A performance that deserved 0 points, yet on the merits of the game we should have won tonight.
