Its the same with us and the UCL.

Yes, we qualified and yes we battered PSG. Does that mean we have the depth to make a deep run? No.

Right now, we’d probably be best off aiming for 3rd and UEL competition.

Yet there’s frequent articles, videos, etc, of “Newcastle’s UCL charge in doubt!”. Like bruh, stop.

That one shot was from about 20 yards out, straight into popes hands too.

Errrr you realise the discussion on Havertz isn’t about whether it’s a foul or not, it’s about how dangerous the tackle was, right?

He jumped into it, studs up, caught longstaff halfway up the shin with his leading leg, then caught him again with his trailing leg. Its so dangerous because it was CMs away from a leg breaker, and Havertz was completely unable to control his momentum when he jumped into it.

If Havertz completely missed (albeit close to longstaff), it could still be a dangerous tackle that should be a red because of the level of danger. You don’t get away with it just because your opponent largely avoids the contact.

Because the benefit of the doubt is supposed to go with the attacker, as in “its a goal unless you can find conclusive/undisputable reasoning not to allow it”.

I dunno which goal you’re referring to, but if its like you said, it sounds more like they fucked up there than with this decision.

Absolute shite take.

Every team, regardless of its stature, will have a tiny percentage of absolute cocks in their fanbase. The rest, at worst, will claim they played better than they did on a given day.

Claiming all fanbases in the prem suck is just nonsense.
