some save by the milan keeper

 

[Modo]

I'm gonna be really impressed with Newcastle if they manage to get 3 points against Fulham on Saturday.

 

[Modo]

Some players are good enough or comfortable enough to do both, miraculously. Just like some wingers can play on both wings.

Yeah especially if the first choice fullback is shit. I wouldn't compare it to wingers.

 

[binomial]

Fuck! Leao off the post. Had to bury that.

If Chilwell isn't fit then Livramento is the next best choice England have at LB.

It's not about comparing, just that some players are equally as effective on either side of the pitch.

SAMUEL CHUKWUEZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[The Nomad]

Now Milan are in Europa.

 

[binomial]

It's happening. Liverpool Milan final nailed on.

 

[Atlas]

Hope Newcastle score to punishment that horrible shot

 

[LarryHagman]

ManU and Newcastle have no fucking business being in the champs league. Useless coefficient fucker uppers.

 

[Modo]

Would you be surprised if Howe got sacked in summer?

 

[Buddha]

I’m watching the champions league this week thinking we’d be pretty much favourites had we qualified.

 

[Modo]

ManU and Newcastle have no fucking business being in the champs league. Useless coefficient fucker uppers.

It's our fault

 

[Buddha]

Would you be surprised if Howe got sacked in summer?

I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s let go in January if they keep losing games.

 

[LarryHagman]

Would you be surprised if Howe got sacked in summer?

He will be. 100%.

 

[StevieM]

Well… they’re only fucking up their chance of getting back in by finishing 5th in the league - so fuck ‘em.

Hang on…. Could us winning the Europa League potentially let one of these shithawks back into the CL???

 

[StevieM]

He will be. 100%.

You’d have to think that someone like Ancelotti would be exactly what they need next.

For what it worth, I think Howe will do enough to get another year.

 

[LarryHagman]

Doesn't Ancelotti get fed up of living in different places? Fuck me, he must have a different gaff every year in a different country. Couldn't be arsed with that.

 

[binomial]

Newcastle beheading out of Europe.......

I'll get me coat.

 

[binomial]

They've really cut off those eye watering ties they could've been in the hat for.......

Ok but seriously I'll rain it in now.

 

[Hansern]

That 5th CL spot looks to be off at this stage with Newcastle and Utd going out early.

 

[Modo]

Good

 

[The Nomad]

Good

We wouldn't be saying good if we were 5th or below right now..

 

[Buddha]

We wouldn't be saying good if we were 5th or below right now..

But we’re not, so good…

 

[Modo]

But we’re not, so good…

Exactly

The league should invent some kind of punishment for teams who finish dead last in their group and thus bring shame and disrepute to the league they represent.

All final positions are ranked so, yes, us winning would increase our coefficient but not enough to balance out 2 teams out at the CL group stage

I meant - if we win Europa League and get automatic qualification - does that mean if we finish top 4, another team gets in?

Or would that only apply if we finish outside the top 4.

Oh crikey! Get the ask now. Yepp, pretty sure it’s only a 5th place if we don’t qualify automatically. Worth a check though

To be fair, I think Utd fans are suffering enough right now.
