Newcastle United vs Aston Villa Pre-Match brekkie

[steamer]

would have dreaded this fixture a few weeks ago
Maybe now we can make a game of it, bring it on.

[PaulTheVillan]

Lots of Archer talk. I’m sure we had this before with Luke Moore

[cdbearsfan]

So we shouldn't pick him because a completely different player didn't live up to expectations twenty years ago? Bizarre.

[LeonW]

Can we get Bertie T back and play him wide on the right?

[Risso]

So who has been the best signing Ollie or Wilson.?
Given we were after Wilson allegedly but let Brucie sign him

This the first decent phase for Wilson since his move. Up to now he’s been underwhelming. In the same time span Ollie has had two double figure scoring seasons. Both could have done more but Ollie is ahead.

Watkins  - 27 goals in 84 games. Wilson - 24 goals in 52 games.

I’d say Wilson is far more clinical but Ollie works harder. Wilson seems to be injured a lot more often too.

[PeterWithesShin]

Wilson is a better player, but he's injured way too much.

Apparently we're obsessed. You're to blame 

[PaulTheVillan]

Wish I could look forward to this but we haven’t done well up there for a long time.

Players should be up for this now they know the new gaffer will be watching.

Left at 6.30. Waiting for a lift at Oxford. Let's beat the Newcastle away curse. UTV

I’m thinking 1-1  don’t care who scores but once again I hope Archer starts

You would change the team from last week?
Interesting that the 10 mins Danks gave Archer last week was more than Gerrard had given him all season. Easy when your 4-0 ip i suppose, but Danks really did make every call the right one.

I keep Archer as sub and keep giving him more minutes from the bench.

Yes I would, I think now is Archers time.

I think dropping anyone from a front three who will all be full of confidence after scoring and playing well last week would be madness and terrible man-management.
