We've just beaten Chelsea away from home and banged in 4 at one of our bogey grounds upton park.got a bad feeling about his, we always struggle away from home
Our form has been very good of late, yesterday was an anomaly.
Newcastle United vs. Manchester United
- Thread starter jeston

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

I go with that team as well. Will be great to have Rooney and Giggs back in this.
I think we need to see Anderson, the lad has a lot of fight about him - he was making some promising runs yesterday lets see him get a couple of games under his belt now because now it's the time for him to cement his position for awhile.
Instead of who?
Spot on every single word.
Carrick SHOULD be first choice in that central midfield, but WHY Berbatov? He had the rest of the match yesterday to do something.
It is clear that if SAF plays two up front the preferred choice is Rooney and Chicharito. There are too few games now to mess around with rotation. If we play with one up, it's Rooney.
The ONLY reason Berbatov would play is if SAF thinks Newcastle is an easy win - at OT maybe, but not at Newcastle.
So you want SAF to play Berbatov so that his confidence is not shot???
Very hard to predict this one.

Please no, win this game with a full strength side and rest players afterwards.
Yep, I'd go with this.
Im amazed some people are even contemplating 'resting' players for this, unbelievable really, Tuesday night is a huge game especially after yesterday any dropped points and we bring Arsenal right back into it.
Thankfully Sir alex has said as much and his team selection will represent the fact its a major must win game, thank christ some of you aint the manager!

Really hopes Anderson starts and United go all out on this one
This but with Fabio for Evra.
That result today should give the whole team a massive lift after yesterday, we bloody well cant let this title slip now.
Come on United, we can't feck this up now.

Do this and pressure will be on Arse against spurs

Have a feeling we'll lose. We always seem to make it difficult for ourselves.
I don't think we will. I reckon a draw at worst.

Win this and imagine the mental pressure on Arsenal, especially after today, its been said in another thread and i to an extent agree with it, win on tuesday and i think Arsenal will crumble the following night.
Was just gonna say this in here
Hernandez has to play surely.
Yes. that team and we´ll spank the geordie bastards
Nolan suspended, Tiote returns
Ireland will decide to put in a shift

Tuesday evening sees Alan Pardew attempt to become the first Newcastle manager to oversee a victory against Sir Alex Ferguson, since Sir Bobby Robson's men triumphed by the odd goal in seven at SJP in September 2001.
From that fixture, both Steve Harper and Shola Ameobi remain at Gallowgate - although both players were only unused substitutes ten years ago.
Since that victory, The Magpies have gone seventeen league and cup games without victory against the side from Old Trafford, drawing three and losing fourteen.

Not a bad thing to have.
I have a feeling we are going to draw this. And Arsenal to lose to Spurs.
Full Strength squad please.
Tiote is pretty good though.
Damn wish we had Scholes. He loves to score against Newcastle. He said that himself once. I still the remember the hat-trick he scored against them.
Newcastle have been poor at home this year. they are without kevin nolan, and their forwards are useless. I say comfortable 2-0 win for us. Rooney getting both goals
we will win comfortably, 2-0 i say!
"When you take three massive players out of the heart of your team, it is going to be to the detriment of the team," he said.
"To be without Kevin Nolan and Cheick Tiote was massive for us - but losing Shola overnight was one too many.
"Suspensions and injuries are killing us. We knew we had a small squad and that's why last week (against Wolves) was a massive result."
Newcastle have just over a week to rest and recuperate before they host Manchester United next Tuesday, for which they will welcome back at least Nolan and Tiote.
The Premier League leaders have a UEFA Champions League clash against Chelsea and an FA Cup semi-final against derby rivals City to contend with before then.
Nolan is suspended
Tiote will return after his suspension
Tiote will return after his suspension
They'll raise their game - its a potential bananaskin
This is always a difficult place to go, but they've got nothing to play for now and we should be able to get a win, which would be hugely valuable.
