    BBC commentary: “lets see how Longstaff does compared to Rice”

    1-0 Rice scores

    Longstaff got a Yellow Card.

    Plus the ref said he has to write 100 lines 'Declan Rice is better than me.'

    Diop is a beast. Brilliant tackle to stop a shot at goal

    I'm worried a big team will be in for him in the summer ;whistle

    Had we had Lanzini all season, we would have a lot more points, IMO.

    Love his budding bromance with Felipe. Slightly lacking composure when he gets to the box, but that's to be expected.

    I'd like to see Arnie fairly early. I do think Hernandez has tried, but he offers very little outside the box. We've had a lot of great build-up which falls flat because nothing is being offered from the striker.

    And Rice and Diop ;bowdown

    I think we might need a third.

    thorn

    Of course you do. ;wink

    Thought that half went about as well as we could have hoped. Newcastle will have to come at us, and once Arnie is on, they will be vulnerable to our counterattack.

    I was joking Grey or at least I hope I am.
  • BazshuayiBazshuayi
    Theres no getting away from the obvious. Arnie is much more of a presence physically and in terms of being mobile His link up play and skill level is higher and he's both an assister and scorer. Hernadez just hasn't got anything like the array of things Arnie has and, despite being a famous poacher, hes (IMO) looking a bit past it in that area too

    #bye at the end of the season

    Me too, thorn!

    I actually do think we need a third ;biggrin
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Because we're prone to defending like that ;doh

    I laughed... Looks like Im the only one so far who did think you were joking ;lol

    Kiss of death but we will NOT be needing a third (despite actually getting a third)

    Snodgrass in acres but neither Lanzini nor Hernandez could find him
  • WHU_Champo_league_in_7_yearsWHU_Champo_league_in_7_years
    Great energy and pace from Fredericks

    Bit too much for Hernandez to turn it in
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Masuaku has actually played very well since coming on
  • Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_MoyesJorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes
    Get Arnie on, please. And/or Nasri.

    #Chich-Eeyore-ito (possibly my fantasy handle for next season)

    Lanzini with the rabona.

    Probably not advisable having suffered an ACL ;sofa
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Masuaku defending well with his face
  • alderzalderz
    Get Antonio on to drive at them a bit
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Obiang coming on for Noble.

    Conservative.

    This hasn't been amazing. First half was good, but we've done hardly anything this half.
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Great challenge by Ogbonna ;clap

    Sometimes...it's pays to just enjoy yourself

    We are comfortably winning 2-0, who cares if we haven't had a great 2nd half, just being in this position is amazing enough

    So smile coyi

    We keep taking the wrong decision in the final third. Could have buried this game if we got it right
  • VorselaarhammerVorselaarhammer
    Very good performance...

    5-0 on the season against Newcastle...

    Nothing much to complain about there. Efficient, clean sheet, 3 home points, and a bit of squad rotation. Lanzini looks class again after a horrible injury, but we have options.
    I love beating Newcastle.
    Billy Bonds has his stand at last.
    We got Declan Rice.
