Match Thread: Newcastle v Everton

[Remember Colo]

We really do seem to break forward on the counter better than we used to. Everyone seems a bit more decisive and committed - even if the final balls or finishing still lacks quality.

[bodacious benny]

Joelinton in the box is f***ing abysmal.

[overseasTOON]

Joelinton managed to head his own shot

[Micky Quim]

f***ing hell. How didnt we score

[Micky Quim]

Or actually get a decent shot away for that matter

[beatski]

that was bad even by Joelinton's standards

I would love to see it in slow mo... Wait until summer time though

That was a first half horrendous watch , topped with the return of the ol Joe..
EH get it sorted cos Everton are rank

[Don Sholeone]

The opposition goal is like Joelintons Kryptonite, he loses all his powers once he gets near it

[Uncle Paul]

Joelinton decides to just buffer when a goal scoring opportunity comes along.

Joelinton in the box is f***ing abysmal.

I think he is ready to be awarded Lee Clark's old nickname ... Jigsaw. He goes to pieces in the box.

[Don Sholeone]

Wonder if we will see Bruno on for Shelvey for the 2nd half, now that he's booked.

[Oval85]

No kidding. Every time I can feel his pulse... He probably feels everyone elses too it seems

[Speedo]

We’ve got to beat these. Especially with Mina injured they’re useless at the back. There for the taking. (Cue 2-1 loss)

[Sanchino]

We're missing Wilson's pace here.. that's why we should have tried the utmost to get a striker/second striker with technical ability & pace due to the way we play now a high pressure 4-4-3.. Wood while being a hard-worker and good in the air lacks that acceleration/speed of the ball to make runs / run past defenders. Willock has been poor, Shelvey needs to calm down & Targett looks OK so far.. steady performance but we need to improve. Trippier should be named captain.. can see his quality & composure on the ball is on a different level to others & he leads by example. Joelinton looks more like Joelinton of old today.. should have scored there. On the whole we look OK but midfield needs a upgrade this summer.. the jury's still out on Willock & Shelvey. Hopefully Bruno gets a good 25/30 mins (for Shelvey who's on a yellow ideally). Would like too see Murphy / Miggy too later down the stretch.

[Micky Quim]

Two subs by 34 mins must play in our favour

[Remember Colo]

I'm predicting a Bruno goal from range. [When was the last time we even scored a long range strike?]

Yeah, like a sh**tty stream.

Probably Shelvey
