Newcastle V Everton.

[therealdunc]

Think we will play similar to the Huddersfield game, no need to go defensive against this lot.

It’s a cert Rafa will focus on Martina as our weakest link, whatever you think of Rafa he always focuses on opposing teams obvious failings and Martina playing out of position is ours.

Newcastle this season have struggled against teams who use the flanks so it’s essential at least one of Rooney or Gilfy is moved and replaced with Lennon/Mirallas/Lookman/Vlasic

I would also consider dropping DCL, not because he has done anything wrong but Newcastle don’t suffer from his type of player, they struggle far more against pace and Niasse or Sandro could be a better option.

I also think we need to be careful with fatigue.
We could see the game against Huddersfield we suffered with fatigue after 2 games in 4 days, the same could be true on Wednesday.

We have a few players like Schneiderlin who could fresheners us up by replacing Davies who was our worst player vs Liverpool.

Newcastle report on local radio reckons the Newcastle team is stronger tonight than on Saturday ?

[therealdunc]

I expect Sam to want at least one winger who can dribble at pace.

[therealdunc]

Is the game live on BBC Merseyside ?

[therealdunc]

Gonna need to keep the crowd quiet 2nd half

[therealdunc]

Davies on for Rooney... not sure about that.

Rooney looked tired according to the radio

[therealdunc]

Tonight, in fact this whole month is all about getting as many points as possible before the January transfer window opens.

Another excellent result

[therealdunc]

As stated

How we play this month is not important, it’s all about getting as many points before January window

The squad is massively unbalanced, the fact Big Sam has won us so many points already is a credit to him and long may it continue.


We are desperate for the Jan window to address the squad

[therealdunc]

Isn't getting maximum points what every month of the season is about?

Yes but people also like to enjoy what they watch.

Until we sign better players and balance the squad, how we play is not important
