Anita equalizes.

Not often that happens. Maybe Jesus Navass will score as well today???

 

[hatterson]

Sideline ref is having some struggles today

So close.

He almost did

For a side in the relegation zone, Newcastle seems to have a pretty solid bench: Mitrovic, Shelvey, De Jong, Wijnaldum and Voldemort.

They have talent in attack, but downright comical defending and a pretty weak midfield.

This is the best game I have seen them defending all season, and thry are playing a couple kids back there as their usual center halves are injured.

 

[hatterson]

Kompany has not had a good day at all. Couple of big mistakes that nearly cost City.

 

[Theon]

FFS Wijnaldum

 

[hatterson]

Huge point for Newcastle.

Close to 3, but they gotta be thrilled with even a single point against City.

 

[Theon]

Top 4 race is gonna be so good.

 

[Plato]

Happy to get anything against City. I think we count 14 defeats in our last 16 league matches against them or something ludicrous like that.

It was about time Wij was dropped from the XI. He's been completely invisible over the past 4 months or so.

Still very much an uphill battle although a result against Liverpool this weekend would do absolute wonders for us. Think Sunderland will be the lucky one to stay up.

They brought him in way too late but I must say I'm incredibly pleased with Rafa minus the Southampton result.

-Understandably lost to Leicester but managed to hold them to a single shot on target
-Didn't lose the derby
-Only lost to Norwich because Taylor may be the worst center half in the Premier League
-Took apart Swansea
-Took a point off City

Oh what could've been if they'd have the brains to have gone after him as soon as he parted ways with Madrid...

 

[njdevsfn95]

We couldn't lose by more than 1, I said.

Got a point and couldve had 3 if refs knew the offsides rule.

 

[Epictetus]

I had no idea there was a Liverpool game today -- and it's against Everton. Derby! What a fantastic surprise.

 

[Burner Account]

What is Lallana's problem

 

[Ar-too]

Everton not exactly putting up a fight here...

 

[Prntscrn]

Milner so underrated. Putting up points after points

Yes. I believe I saw a stat that showed he was top five in Europe in goals + assists in all competitions.

 

[Live in the Now]

Funes Mori trying to break Origi's ankle, and now Origi will have to be stretchered off. What an absolute joke.

 

[Theon]

Darmian just scored a cracking goal.

 

[Jussi]

Darmian!

 

[Live in the Now]

Origi will certainly be out for the Euros as well. Really disgusting.

 

[Chimaera]

Disgraceful

 

[Burner Account]

Will have to look at the tackle later but really terrible timing in the bigger picture

 

[Live in the Now]

The guy was pounding his chest and the Everton badge after doing it. What the ****.

 

[Chimaera]

He's a clown. Should get extra games for that crap.
