Such heart shown by our player chasing back there is something that I would have liked to be able to say with sincerity.

It's not like he's never done that before either. Dallying with the ball in our own box

Absolutely no marking there. Almiron owes us a goal.

Clark is one of the best goal scoring defenders we've had in recent times.

As we go behind Emil Krafth comes on.

My mistake, thought we were Liverpool for a moment.

Hayden is 95%+ a very good player and reader of the game, the rest of the time he attempts some very stupid stuff.

It's a head scratcher, one for Brucey to analyse. With the aid of his modern, dynamic and innovative holistic approach I have every confidence he'll get to the bottom of it and address it for future matches.

Completely out of the blue that. Some classic ball watching there.

I'm at great danger of bringing on an error but I'm quite enjoying having Ciaran Clarke back in the side.

I for one certainly was not just thinking minutes before what is the point of this guy?

Good timing.

Nice passage of play and a well worked goal.

Probably best not to at the moment unless you're a big fan of Leeds.

Don't know what game you're watching, we're bossing this with 26% of the ball.

There must be an element with Joelinton of "if he gets injured it doesn't really matter". Looking forward to seeing a full game from Fraser, somewhat an unexpected selection for the wee lad from Bag End. Jamal Lewis absolutely flourishing under Brucey's stewardship.

And now, onto the premier league for the Manchester derby.

Gayle showing in his cameo why Joelinton will never be a goalscorer. League apart in terms of positioning and instinct.

Shame his best work came after he was subbed off.

Brilliant ball in from Murphy and nice header Gayle.

Excellent header from Gayle there, aware defending and good goal line clearance denied him a goal.

There's a reason it was only a rumour. But yes, tough to compare the expectations on a fullback at Newcastle versus Liverpool currently.
