I think Deano has looked solid. Lingard not so much.

He's made 6 saves already that half. If he can get to 12, that would put him in the top ten all time Premier League saves in a single game.

He almost certainly won't, of course. But it does go to show how well he's done so far.
 
Why haven't Newcastle Arabia signed anyone yet?? Confused is what I am
 
nothing can convince me to watch everton-chelsea later.. bored already!

Tbf most of their summer signings aren't playing. But I did think it was a mistake to net get at least 2 of Spence, Garner or Davies in again, all 3 were crucial to their run last year and not easy to replace.

Spence wanted Spurs - Davies is injured and Gerard wants £20m - Would love garner but for some reason wants to try to get inthe united side?

I don't know, a feeling he must be annoyed at being snubbed and swept under the rug after having such a good season. It's all about Kane, Salah and co...
Wishful thinking maybe.

The signing of Richarlison could wind him up, too. But Koreans are known for their assistfulness. So wind back the forlorn dreamptiness.

34 passes at 91% accuracy. 1 of them a key pass.

9 long balls attempted, 8 successful.

3 tackles, 3 clearances, 1 interception and 1 blocked shot.

All in all, seems pretty good on paper for a single half.

are we talking about Neves? Just remember how good our midfield looked against Leeds on the opening day last season

Yeah. But Neves gets these sort of numbers in a lot of matches. He's rated on this forum precisely because he's a bit of a stats monster.
 
Henderson’s supposed to be better than De Gea at coming for crosses? Yeah right

Leeds games, even under Ole, were absolute gimmies. Literally the perfect team for Ole to play against.
 
Forest's bad defending and Newcastle's bad attack cancelling each other out.
 
Spurs are pretty good. Think they'll finish above Chelsea / Arsenal this season.

I'm amazed that we can't someone like Diaz / Kulusevski on decent fees and instead have to overpay for guys like Antony.

Kulu has been really solid.

and Conte seems to know how to use his players (not actually a shock)
 
Willock seems to have gone of the ball since the early days of last season
 
Any reason why they didn't show the VAR check for the Nunez first goal? Looked potentially offside to me, would have been good to see those lines but they didn't show them. They did show the VVD penalty challenge about 6 or 7 times though. Weird.

Guess they are keeping a low profile for a start of the new them. To make sure everybody sees them as a club that will not spend huge money, cause they are serious club and will not be taken to cleaners.
Or, maybe nobody wants to go there, so they have to get up in the league to be seen as ambitious club where players wants to go for trophies.
Was hoping they take few of our excelent players, but...window not over yet! Here is Jones for £50m!
