Pickford will be England's #1. Southgate is loyal and Pickford has done it at two major tournaments, you don't take risks with the keeper in a major tournament.

Utd will finsh Top 6 with over 60 points. For all the troubles they've still got a huge squad and will buy between now and the window closing. The smaller clubs will fall away when winter kicks in and injuries mount. Newcastle are the only club that can stop the top 6 realistically.

Just outta interest coz I don’t know the answer to this. A two footed challenge with feet off the floor is deemed as “ player not in control so he sees red, yet both feet off floor and 1 footed challenge it’s yellow. Any reason for that. I thought it was deliberate and clumsy but dangerous no.
Ok so imagine KBD dislocates his knee after that assault.
His playing days are over because he can’t run anymore.

Would your attitude to these tackles change ?
It’s going to happen sooner or later.

I do a league prediction with my mates. This year I put Newcastle 6th with United 7th, and that was before the season started so not a knee jerk to MU's poor start! I've seen nothing that makes me think I got it wrong.

That can happen from any tackle or foul - do you want to just outlaw tackling ? Maybe heading as well ? In fact make it non contact

It'll be close for sure! Newcastle don't have the quality upfront and Wilson is very injury prone. Utd are so volatile it's impossible to predict what will happen realistically. Makes for a good season as a neutral though!

No
No
No
What a typical piece of crap from you .
No body mentioned non contact.
My views on this type of foul are well known !but at the very least you should go for the ball.

knee high no attempt at the ball, red all day long for me
That's certainly how I envisaged the reasoning of the Ref. I wasn't surprised to see a Red awarded and was somewhat surprised to see VAR overturn it. Probably the worst Yellow that we'll see this year.
