Hold on to your lunch my friends, as our valiant boys travel north and to the marauding… oh, hang on…
This has become another must-win game, which is precisely what happens to football clubs that fail to live up to their hype. Manchester City doesn’t head to Sid James’ Park hoping.
Players to watch: Jamaal Lascelles has scored Newcastle’s last two Premier League goals, both netted at home and after Half Time.
Meanwhile, Tottenham’s Harry Kane, scorer of five competitive goals against Newcastle, recently became the first man to contribute to 30 Premier League goals this term, scoring 17 and assisting 13.
Newcastle (3-5-2) Dubravka; Krafth, Lascelles, Dummett; Murphy, Almiron, Shelvey, S Longstaff, Ritchie; Joelinton, Gayle.
Substitutes: Darlow, Clark, Lewis, Manquillo, Hendrick, Willock, M Longstaff, Anderson, Saint-Maximin.
Tottenham Hotspur (4-4-2) Lloris; Tanganga, Sanchez, Rodon, Reguilon; Lo Celso, Hojbjerg, Ndombele, Lucas Moura; Vinicius, Kane.
Substitutes: Hart, Winks, Lamela, Dier, Sissoko, Alli, Son, Bale, Scarlett.
Referee: Craig Pawson. Assistants: Ian Hussin, Eddie Smart. Fourth official: Lee Mason. VAR: Darren England. Assistant VAR: Andy Halliday.
If the NLD wasn’t motivation enough, or the home derby against Chelsea, or the game at West Ham…I don’t see how MU are different.
Welcome mat Spurs, if you’re down on your luck and need three points or are desperate for a win Dial Tottenham Hotspur football charity club.
How many points we’ve dropped from 80 plus minutes is criminal !!!!
Hahaha
Your right
He is doing a great job
Unfortunately Mike our center backs (Sanchez in particular ) was the problem today, so not sure you can blame the Manager… Not sure where Toby was today but the performance and mistakes of the individual players on the pitch can only be put down to the players not being good enough for Premier League Standards… They have the right forwards and midfield players and they seriously need to get rid of a few backline players and replace with other proven Players. 🙂
Sage words
Spurs “how to make a crap team look good”…pundits praising Newcastle how well they played…no…we let them, ive watched them play and they are shocking…
Send your CV in then!
This is precisely my gripe
agree..
and assumed even Jose thought those two could beat that crap
Not today, but from now on.
he’s just played 3 int games
The delusion lies in the that some of our fans are ignoring our form which has been terrible and I’ve seen nothing to suggest we are one of the best 4 teams in the PL. Have you?
Surely the 32-year-old can manage one game a week and the cup final!
I can’t really wrap my head around this. The worst thing is that I’ve come to expect the late sucker punch, especially when Kane hit the post.
Even a little consistency would see us comfortably in the top 4, but there’s been none at all since November. Villa seemed like a step in the right direction, but if we let Newcastle run rings around us, what will Utd do?
Time is running out and we need to improve, fast.
Also, I’ve had enough of waiting for Sanchez to maybe someday become reliable. Rodon-Toby until the end of the season please.
no not at all…its how I felt before thanks…just that Chelsea opened the door and we shut it behind them..
We are stuck with them. With a gigantic debt.
Just saw the Chelsea v West Brom highlights. If anyone thinks that was a genuine football match I don’t know what to tell you. Unreal.
I hate having to feel angry after nearly every game.
what are we, no idea any more, Jose doesn’t know what to do either so you have to argue he is not right for Levy
As usual we do a spursy
We looked totally disorganized. Jose has to improve players on 15m a year and I can’t see any evidence of that.
Pretty much it.
Get ready for the same boring excuses from the manager and the pro mo brigade on why we didn’t beat really poor opposition. Yawn.
Honestly. Nothing will get better with this guy in charge and the clown sitting at the very top
It’s not that we failed to pick up 3 points, it’s that we looked incredibly fragile at the back and disjointed going forward
ENIC out
Should have won the game on paper, but not with a performance like that, I look at Mourinho and his coaching, he’s had long enough to instil his brainwashing and his tactical genius.
The usual post game doom and gloom!
Plenty of football left yet
Home to Man U next – nowhere to hide, do or die
Will be a fascinating one, if Jose can’t get them ready for this one then when will he ever?
I think even a europa place will be difficult…
we are 1 point off, where’s the delusion?
And still some of our fans will delude themselves that we can still make top 4.
every time…every bloody time – weak, weak, weak…
How many times have we conceded goals in the last minutes of a match or just before halftime?
disgraceful – Jose has to start answering to this crap with or without the “right” players….bless COVID for no fans…
Another sickener.
Joke
20 shots to 9… If all you got was to watch this game then had to guess which side was 12 spots highest in the league!
well, worst time to play them but you’ve still got to do the job
It’s the second half of a Premier League game – he’s always terrible second half
Not a chance of Champions League with defending like this. This is a relegation candidate FFS.
Don’t worry we won’t.
Even if we do get top 4 imagine the champs leagues maulings with this mob.
Yeah lets give Bale 3 mins lol !
Spursy.
Those millions of fans were right….
Why no challenge from Reguillion ?
Other teams do us a favour and we just can’t be bothered.
Jose out, Levy out,Joe Lewis out….half the team out…
And there it is and it had to be Willock
You called it.
Boy this is tiresome.
hashtag so obvious….
Millions of Spurs fans all over the world waiting for the sucker punch.
10 mins or so inc stoppage, the draw is 7/1 on Betfair – just sayin!
lo celso hasn’s been any better
The amount of ball we have just hoofed away! Lloris hasn’t managed to fi d a Spurs player once with his punts up field
Ndombele has been pathetic.
Marine?
Even then I couldn’t relax😁
We do need another goal !!!
They have another midfielder on, they’ll go for it now, let’s hope we can pick them off.
If he has it’s been a long time I thought Gio would take one
Who is buying that?…
If only
Tottenham have a free kick, zzz zzz.
He’s our John Stones.
We won’t with this defence unfortunately unless we go with the Ossie tactics we can score more than you !!
It’s the one thing he hasn’t mastered, which is strange for such a brilliant ball striker.
He needs to be sold as a priority, this summer.
Sanchez an absolute liability today. Just when you think he’s starting to improve… 🙁
Seriously has Harry EVER scored a free kick?
disjointed at best…11 players, no team..
Lamela or Lo Celso should take them
Every ball into our box leads to a chance for them. We are that woeful defensively.
I can’t believe that Sanchez isn’t a sub at best
Free kicks, we are useless.
Saint – Maximin will cause us big problems !
If we get fourth place with defending like this it will be a miracle.
This team being 4th is mind boggling. This world is truly bonkers.
Shambolic defending.
Shocking
Yep just wait for the 80+ min equaliser
Please tell the manager a few minutes earlier next time!!!
Without Kane it’s a problem.
Understatement of millennium.
Not convinced about Ndombele
Let’s get another before they bring on Saint-Maximin and throw the kitchen sink at us.
Ben Davies knows that feeling.
It’s similar to the Palace match!
We are really struggling against, debatably, our easiest match in the run-in.
Newcastle haven’t had 14 attempts the rest of the season.
Where would we be without Harry ?
14 attempts to 4…shocking..
Too tight.
Reguilon needs help, somebody needs to drop back when that Murphy targets him.
Today certainly isn’t his best game…but unlike some others, for him this is an off day.
Sanchez again why didn’t we buy another CB in Jan ?
one man team…tut tut
Bring on Bale and Lamela
