Title: Newcastle United vs Aston Villa pre-match thread

With Arsenal playing MU at home, a game they could easily lose, if we win this we're back in the title race imo.

Big if I know.

But I don't care.

Let's get back into the title race.

A heavy defeat. As it always is up there.

12-1 on aggregate in the last 3 games at Sid James.

With Joelinton,  Woltemade and Gordon they must have the worst hairstyles in the league. 2:1 Villa

Yep. We do better at Old Trafford and Selhurst sodding Park than we do here.

Interesting team selection. I think Lindelof might get back in. Newcastle have been consistently inconsistent all season. Fear that effort tonight will have taken it out of our lads. Sounds like they had a bit of a handy win at home v PSG.

Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Lindelof, Maatsen, Onana, Sancho, Tielemans, Buendia, Rogers, Ollie.

Bizot, Mings, Torres, Garcia, Digne, Bogarde, kids, Guessand

If we had proper time to rest and recover while they took it easy against an average PSV side a day earlier with no travel, I'd fancy us to finally fucking beat them up there. As it is, a draw would be impressive.

As good and solid as Lindelof has been, there isn’t a sceanroo when Unai doesnt pick Torres and Konsa as his first choice pair at the moment.

They have a really good home record, we have a terrible record up there, its in the stars obviously.

Martinez
Cash
Konsa
Torres
Maatsen
Onana
Bogarde
Tielemans
Watkins
Rogers
Beundia

2-1 us (Watkins, Rogers)
