Well done to Newcastle. But I have to point out a little irony - oil rich arabs beat oil rich arabs. How long before Newcastle lose the underdog mentality…one season of champions league…two…?

Qatar vs Saudi

A rivalry on and off the pitch.

I’ve woken up today slightly more annoyed about our result vs Lens than I was yesterday, having seen the Newcastle result against PSG.

We won our home game against PSV 4-0.

Home games are a different ball game imo.

Lets see how they do in Paris

Yeah, I remember.

Swapping the V for a G makes a big difference.

I don’t need it putting in perspective for me, it’s just a tiny bit annoying to have lost to an inferior French team only to then see Newcastle absolutely batter a better one in PSG.

PSV PSG same thing I agree both farmer clubs

I feel we will win all our home games comfortably aswell.

I wasn’t trying to correct you or anything tho. Continue to be mildly annoyed in peace :grin:

I don’t think our result is too bad in the scheme of things (yes we could have and should have won). Playing away is much harder, can only really compare when they play at Parc des Princes

Not surprised at all.

I was more surprised with their performance against Milan.

I do agree, I was not as mad as others about it, just a very minor annoyance seeing Newcastle get a very good result against a big side.

Newcastle thumping PSG 4-1 is annoying in any context, purely because I doubt we could’ve done it.

Would’ve been some 2-2 sloppy defence fest.

I can’t. :sob:

Goncalo Ramos looked like the real deal in the first half of last season and subsequently the World Cup.
Ever since that he reminds me of a certain someone:

TNT’s commentary team complained about it a lot. There is definitely pressure on VAR officials and referees to come to a decision quickly just as much as there is to be accurate. This undoubtedly would have affected the likes of Darren England to rush his response. Yeah yeah check complete check complete. Speaks volumes not just on his incompetence but also the pressure on him. So while the refereeing and VAR culture needs to change, the media and the fans need to pipe down and let the correct decision play out too.

PL should really opt for the semi-auto off-side decision making system seen in CL and WC - seems so much smoother than the current process.

Fair play for showing up, they were awful.

Nah fuck that sportswashing PR exercise of a club and fuck their fans too. Bunch of useful idiots. I’ve never really cared about Newcastle outside of the absolutely phenomenal Goal movie but I can honestly say I despise them now.

Galatasaray just missing a big chance to make it 2:1

Another good one for Icardi

They really have a strong squad atm, the bench alone tells a lot.

What a chance for Icardi!
Torreira won the ball brilliantly just outside of Munich box.

Galatasaray absolutely dominant since I tuned in 15 mins ago. Quite incredible.
