Newcastle away Wednesday 4th Dec at 730 pm

You wonder if Slot's Liverpool will get better treatment from refs than Klopp's Liverpool. Are there any signs of it? Klopp riled officials and it would never have had a positive response from them

Think of it like a fan would. If you really dislike a team, does that really change when they change manager?

Sure you might dislike one manager of that team more than another, but generally a portion of that dislike is just passed on.


Think the only thing that might change how we are reffed (this season anyway) a bit is the current scrutiny of the Coote stuff and the chance that more news might break about dodgy reffing.

Full on dogs of war from them. Fully expect a crap ton of OTT fouling all game long.

That's all they've got, snidey ****ers.

[Norbs]

There's a disproportionate amount of refs who hate us, needs addressing doesn't it. And it's not a city factor, as if that was the case then Everton would suffer the same treatment

[Angryred]

The same refs may dislike Everton more?

And rightly so

Any idea how long Tsimikas is out for? Be ideal to rotate he & Robbo with so many matches over the break

His foot was still in a protective boot on yesterdays images

Newcastle's xG against Palace was 0.02...

Well not too bad I suppose. Thanks gents

I think we have earned somewhat of a fear factor at this present moment. Score the first goal and they might struggle, plus it'll quieten the crowd etc.

On the flip side, if they score first this will be a very tough night.

Newcastle and Everton, two teams way off their best form, but two sets of fans that at their noisiest can make life hard for us!

Against Newcastle away!!!???

I’d say Jones can come in but then it’s two of the other three starters from yesterday. Arsenal have an improved Utd to play it’s tine to try and hammer hone any advantage.

we've been rotating very wisely up until this point, Newcastle away is a tough fixture and we need our best lads to start.

[peterbread]

Jones to come in for Dom probably as Mac Alister seems to have hit form. To be honest all of them seem to be in great form right now. Dom looking more comfortable in the advanced role and hopefully some goals to come with that.

Nunez in for one of Gakpo or Diaz.

Back four stays the same. Not much room for change although Gomez could go to RB and Quansah in to CB.

I wouldn’t mind the same team, not like that game took a lot out of them like it usually would. Having Elliot back will help the rotation of the midfield and front three while Jota and Chiesa are still out.

Even though a few are missing there’s still room for good options to rotate.

[memzey]

I thought there was a chance that Chiesa was going to be on the bench?

[banditos]

Is Isak still out for them?
