Feel a little bit bad for Villa there. Not that much though. Mings was an absolute unit at the back, fair play to him. Kane has two in August already, lovely stuff. Nice to have a comfortable win in your first game. :D

PS. I've never seen so many different ways of spelling Eriksen, lads. :LOL:

Eriksen is so important for us, I think he's the modern day Glenn Hoddle. The guy has so much guile and creativity, it'll be frightening if he goes

Surely it’s when ? Are they going to risk losing him on a free next year ? Such a different team when he came on

Can see why they spent £20mil on him after all 👍😉

This new goal kick rule

Say a teams 1 up not long to go. Goalie takes the goal kick but the ball stops inside the area. Defenders ignore it, attacking team can’t touch it, (neither can the keeper for that matter)

What happens?

So are you saying Dave the ball is not back in play when the keeper kicks it?

Same as whatever happened before? If nobody touches it why would it matter if the defenders are in or out of the box?

The opposition can touch the ball the moment it’s kicked. They just can’t start off in the box when the keeper takes it.

Yes it’s 3 points, but I think there’s more concern than that result represents imo.

your pre season still not ended has it, expect we get some of it tomorrow too haha

Bit more of a sterner test tomorrow, away to yernited against playing at home against a newly promoted championship side, if Erikson does go I’d be pretty concerned as Villa were coming away with something until he came on.

We’ve played well in our pre season games, lots of positives, lots of goals, unfortunately we leaked quite a few also, even though we won, but we’ve offloaded that weak link now to Arsenal, so I’m hoping for a steady start whilst some players come back from injury who’ll then add to a new exiting mix of young, hungry and experienced players.

With the Sarri shackles off, some players have really found a new lease of life, Barkley and Jorginho have both had superb pre season games, I can’t wait to see our initial line up, especially knowing we have 3-4 more quality players to come back into the frame.

I’d say there’s more pressure on yernited than us as most have written us off, so bring it on......

Are they in the treatment room or being rested/tired and taking Newcastle too lightly.

Andy Carrol to come on and score the winner in injury time with a bullet header and become a north east hero again 😜

I saw that on the news, and quite simply I don’t get it? Ok it was an unpleasant situation they found themselves in, but the incident is over, what security risk could be associated with a potential car jacking/robbery to that of playing football. Do they (police) have evidence of some nature that both their lives are in danger still? Are they being stalked or threatened still?

Have to assume theyve had follow up threats for them to be pulled out of playing this weekend, odd, really really odd
