Eddie looks like he has just won a tube of shuttlecocks

Which was what was in Bruce's

We're favourites today. That's mad 🤣

 

3.5 I got for Chelsea 

[Ayatollah Hermione 14043]

Part of me thinks that Potter will be chuffed with a draw as he’s clearly desperate for this month off but at the same time, they’ve still got plenty quality and they’re not going to be shit forever. But, they are all going to the World Cup so even with the best of intentions, they’re going to be thinking about that ahead of us. Basically, I’m hoping for an Arsenal style demolition where we didn’t even give them time to breathe but it’s still difficult to even comprehend that we can do that to teams tbh

Fucking hate late kick offs unless I’m in front of the TV  

[trophyshy 7084]

I’m absolutely gagging for a five hour session and then into the ground bladdered to scream and shout for 2 hours.  I’ve missed barely being able to see the match.  
 

Instead, I’ll be looking after some stupid cunt’s kids all day.

Think this will be the game too far unfortunately 🙁

why? they're in shocking form. 

 

it wouldn't surprise me if it's draw. it's hard to imagine the players who are going to the WC playing with the same intensity as usual so perhaps it will peter out like a friendly

It just seems odd after 50+ years following this club to be expecting a win against a top team 🙂

I heard a couple of things, not sure what to believe at this stage. First that he was unfortunately lost at sea, and second that he retired at Bristol City. More to come.

 

[wykikitoon 20708]

Chelsea hate coming to SJP.  But I have a feeling with nee Wilson we may struggle. 1- Botman.

[Anorthernsoul 1221]

I heard Wilson has COVID? Different team altogether without him.

[Anorthernsoul 1221]

Wilson arrives at SJP with the rest of the team in fine spirits. Clearly hasn't got COVID! 

 

Let's fucking do these!

[Gemmill 45997]

Wilson on the bench. Joelinton in for Murphy. 

[Ayatollah Hermione 14043]

That Chelsea team is the kind of thing that either becomes a masterstroke or a disaster

Team news - Wilson on bench, Sterling out

Newcastle v Chelsea (17:30 GMT)

Newcastle United make two changes to the side that won 4-1 at Southampton.

Callum Wilson is only fit enough to make the bench as Chris Wood starts. Joelinton returns from suspension to replace Jacob Murphy, who is among the substitutes.

Newcastle United XI: Pope, Trippier, Botman, Schär, Joelinton, Wood, Almirón, Willock, Burn, Longstaff, Guimarães

Subs: Darlow, Lascelles, Shelvey, Wilson, Saint-Maximin, Targett, Manquillo, Murphy, Anderson

Chelsea XI: Mendy, Jorginho, Kovacic, Loftus-Cheek, Chalobah, Broja, Mount, Gallagher, Koulibaly, Azpilicueta, Hall

Subs: Bettinelli, Silva, Aubameyang, Pulisic, Zakaria, Ziyech, Havertz, Cucurella, Hutchinson

A double blow for us then.

Wouldn't be surprised if he had covid last week. 3rd game in a row he hasnt been able to play/play 90mins. Not sure what the rules are in the PL with testing these days 

[ewerk 31195]

You really think the club are stupid enough to allow a covid riddled player to mix with the rest of the first team?

[Chaser 1255]

Let's tonk these cockney bastards.
