:lol:

They should ditch the main guy (David Stowell?), he's too professional, and just have Gaz and Paddy generally shout and sigh.

Very impressed with our passing. Tunnicliff, Morrison etc. showing great maturity.

Hmm...if any midfielder from the youth team gets some minutes I'd expect it to be Morrison or Brady. But I like Tunnicliff too. Very intelligent lad.

That other stream is up and running now with a slightly better picture.

Gary's been very, very good on the commentary tonight.

Morrison looks really comfortable on the ball. Great prospect

A substandard bag of meat and bones.
A bit one way traffic at the moment, but Newcastle getting men behind the ball and we are lacking width in our play to stretch them.

Tunnicliffe knees a flick on from a corner over the bar.

We need to convert our superiority into goals, or we could regret it. Newcastle are bound to have some good periods of play and have looked dangerous on the break a few times.

He's got a wicked sense of humour and is very intelligent too. Destroys 95% plus of commentators I have heard.

Shame we don't have a natural striker to make moves and create some space for the midfielders coming through from midfield.

Isn't there any one whom could of stepped up from the younger age groups?

Bloody hell. What's that, 15 shots to 0? This is a massacre. Our runs forward have been terrific, and what a ball that was by Tunnicliffe a few minutes ago.

Surprised Lawrence hasn't started upfront. It's his preferred position isn't it?

"It must be tiring constantly being on the backfoot, I suppose you're lucky in that you didn't have that much at United Gary"

You get the sense that if Gary was the manager he'd absolutely rip them to shreds at half time.

Pogba looks good on the ball but he has to work on his positioning and movement when we're defending. Morrison and Tunnicliffe are ahead of him in that department.
