I didn’t watch any of the internationals – honestly couldn’t be bothered. I am liking the Kane rumour, but 180 mil on Isak??? That’s not happening!

FA Cup has been brill I must say – would like to see a new winner this year.

It’ll get better and more exciting now with the Prem, as we enter the business end.

You been neglecting this place, that’s what you’ve done!! 🤓🙉

This has felt an age. Enjoyed the Fa Cup action last weekend, but gotten used to the idea of no football

April you don’t need me to say a make or break month⚽️⚽️🏆

No way. The Magic is well and truly alive.

Good match yester afternoon. Palace deserved their triumph. Eze was immense and I hope Liverpool sign him in the summer.

Brighton-Forest I didn’t watch, but seemingly that was another mouth-watering tie.

Hopefully, the same follows this afternoon and we have a new potential FA Cup winner for 2025.

Good start for TT. 2 wins from 2. Looks like a new regime with a different choice of players involved. Possibly a few faces may be phased out or continue to partake in next year’s tournament.

Personally, I still find all this a damp squid because of the timing and depressing having to still wait for the PL to return.

Sean, overlooked your post y’day and I do agree with your points about World Class. A few individual players out there have dipped in form. There’s not a lot of strikers compared to what was on the football circuit 25 years ago.

I think we’ve witnessed a number of cycles with different clubs to the point of the dynamic looking like what it was like in the 1980s as far as English Top Flight goes. The so-called top teams are average; they’re not great.

I’m enjoying it personally from a different lens of the spectrum; we have Forest in the quarters and in Champions League places. Villa doing well too in the CL which is good to see.

And just as a side, how have Chelsea managed to sign players that was reported yesterday? This is just like paranormal!!!

Good Morning,

This has shown how quickly things can change and what you’re left with as a result; in just days.

Granted, there’s fans posting on different platforms about this that and the other in a nuance of gloating/boasting. “Don’t do it! Simples!” Timing of the fixtures placed not great, but it’s done and we just have to move forward.

And yeah, it’s the impact of the defeats that can affect players mentally and a test for them naturally to see how they overcome the setbacks.

Hopefully get through this week and the Internationals will keep people occupied with something new to talk about and distract for the time-being from all the domestic stuff.

Any yes, it’s a psychological problem for us or a newish one for us as we’ve not suffered back-to-back defeats for a while and usually we bounce back.

If teams can smell you’re doubt and lack of confidence, they will not hold back. Look at Crystal Palace at Anfield last year.

If we don’t genuinely do something serious in the summer, then we will regress. The boys will be burnt out and will need to recuperate properly. Please, we have ageing players anyway that need replacing.

The so-called mid-table teams will continue to be competitive if they retain their squads and equally strengthen. Don’t know about the likes of Chelsea and Spurs and how they will fare next season. City too.

Sean, hi mate. Yeah, all let gone of now mate. Nothing to begrudge of Newcastle and they deserve to live it large.

My thoughts are essentially moving forward and what can we now focus on and change to make it better?

We struggled to unlock their pack and it was strength and pace. It’s not that we don’t have this, it’s simply down to I think we’ve just ran out of it.

I do think we need a dribbler and somebody cunning that can find something out of nothing.

I’m reading it differently guys and there’s a correlation to how City suddenly faltered at the point of all this going on behind the scenes with them having some inside incline.

I don’t think it will be a slap on the wrist.

Albania first friendly, Friday Night. Dan Burn’s first game. Seems a good guy and pro so happy for him in getting this opportunity. TT’s first match too in charge.

Mikey F, some good points made; made me think about the days when the Transfer Window used to be open till the 31st, March. It really makes me wonder behind the scenes as to whether from pitch side, the board have been challenged as to whether or not there has been any vision rubbed-stamped to strengthening the squad?

I don’t like to say this, but FSG has done us a dis-service. No squad of this stature can compete and win All 4 Cup Competitions. A lot to some extent of it being justified, made of Slot not having faith in starting players beyond his regular 11. Maybe from what took place against Plymouth, that may have influenced him to be more cautious.

This was weeks back. Question Marks undoubtedly on Jota and Diaz. The Midfield look absolutely worn out. If you look at the example of Klopp’s squad that won the Title in 2020, we had Firmino and Mane as make up of a front 3, and still had good fringe players like Milner and Origi that were Gamechangers.

March is where the damage has happened in recent times, but somehow in 2022, we pushed Man City all the way. We’re in need of a lot of Pace and Aggression. Those are the type of players we need to be thinking about.

It has to now be the scope of Slot’s new era and the type of players he would like to bring in.

This is an example of a headline that in my view can be pick up by the media and misinterpreted https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football

The problem I’ve had in the past with Bruno is his conduct, but of late, he’s changed. The criticism and the backlash at the time was probably justified and having watched his interview with Sky yesterday, he was nothing but respectful and kind.

I don’t have a problem at all with Newcastle fans celebrating, including Shearer, and Ant and Dec!!

Joelinton, however did accentuate his expression a little bit too much y’day everytime he won a challenge. Maybe one our players could have exhibited that type of attitude and behaviour.

Everyone else from their side seem good; maybe it came as a surprise, but ultimately, they turned up and we didn’t and they wanted it more and deserved it.
