Newcastle v Southampton Match Thread

We will get a point 2-2 or might nick a 2-3. The pressure on Newcastle is much higher!

Rodriguez off.

Nice run from Mane. Love how he controlled that ball. Corner.

Well, Bletch, I read about Pelle’s goal on here about a minute before watching it on my stream - if only you’d been more cryptic and said something like “PELLE you’ve just got to love him!”

I am relying on you guys as I am stuck on the A14 on my way home to Carlisle!

COYR!

Interesting that Bellerin is injured, and Chambers didn’t get a start.

McLaren makes me laugh the way he keeps running up and down those stairs with his lap top, and then talking on the phone. It’s like a work experience kid on his first day in the office.

Anita off injured. Tiote on for them. Might changed the balance in midfield, but I rate Tiote at break-up play.

This game could be made for Shane Long!! On for JRod

I guess that fitness will tell in the last 15 mins - perhaps ours will be better due to the extra competitive matches?

Arsenal are my tips for the title, now let’s see how they react in the last 30 minutes.

Is Chambers not fully fit? He cannot be that out of favour surely?

Newcastle breaking 3 on 2 there. Came to nothing.

Can’t believe we’re the same team as last year. Is that the Schneiderlin effect?

70 mins. Mané hits post but is offside.

Tadic looking more like the Tadic of early last season

Good run out for JRod but what I am hearing from friends at the game is he look dead on his feet before half time, very heavy legged throughout. Now I am not criticising after the injury he had, but surprised he started and played so long.

Me too

On the bench, so must be fit.

He’s behind Bellerin and Debuchy it seems.

Unless he’s seen as a back-up centre-back?

Spider-Man was fantastic for us, but he have a great team, we will get it together. Let’s not lose 3-1 and go below the cherries!

I think the Scheiderlin, Alderweireld, Clyne effect.

I don’t remember a decent game when Davis has been in the defensive midfield position.

And unfortunate Claise being injured.

I would be very happy to get a draw from here
