Read a few years ago about poch a few years ago and he was saying he was alarmed by mentality of club. Fixtures came out and players were worried about playing QPR at home as returning as Manager amongst other fixtures that were easily winnable. Sunday is winnable if we have the mentality. Do think this is a test for Ange particularly defensive side as got creamed there last season without them trying hard to score.

Solanke fit would be great but I also think Richarlison can start now too so we will at least have a physical presence up front.
Newcastle really struggled with Bournemouth's intensity and looked shattered by the end of the game. They play Forest in the cup tomorrow as well so we really should be looking to press like maniacs and force the issue for intensity.
Perhaps you missed last year's game dipstick?
Big game for defence sunday. We need to be bullish and go there to get the three points. We have better quality players. Our defence is key though. Romero has been shit there last two seasons.
Does Dallas……
Mentality is the crux.
Every game day thread, someone says "This is a must win game"
FFS. Every game is a must win! That's called competition. That's when you barrack for your club and send out positive vibes to the players, the coaches and the fan base.
Last year's game?
Typical negativity.
Our coaches deal with that
That was the opening game of the season no? Or did United play on Friday that year?
so, it looks like Nucastle are playing on Weds? But we don't have any league cup games? Why is that? Do we get a by into next round or do we play after the break?
They were shitter than us last season therefore get an extra game
Clubs in Europe get a bye into the next round .
And we can't draw another team in Europe in the 3rd round.
...and the one after will tell us even more!!
Not sure fiery derbies are actually all that indicative tbh.
Look how often we lose to West Ham.
There won't be a much better time to play them, Schar is suspended and Lascelles and Bottman are both injured meaning they likely have to play Burn and Krafth at CB, both of whom are shite. As others have said big game for the defence because Newcastle are definitely there to be got at, just need to set the tone early in the first half and not let them settle into the game and get the crowd behind them.
3-2 Spurs, Isak to give us the shits late on after controlling much of the game in typical Spurs fashion.
