Great report, Sam. Wilson’s legs are long gone and Gordon is out of sorts for some reason, but our team still has an amazing chance to qualify for next season’s Champions League. HWTL!

I'm glad someone else noticed Gordon's performance. He was absolute pish today. If he wants away, sell him. He was cosying up to the Arsenal players after the final whistle - give me Harvey Barnes any day of the week.

Totally agree on Flash. I've simply had 'enough' of him and his lacklustre performances. His body language reeks, too. He needs to improve, and quickly, as his semi-final performances are fading into the distant past. One last chance against his old team-mates on Sunday?

Is Flash away? Or is he just out of sorts?

The amount of time he spends curled in a ball holding his shins is irritating. Fair enough go down on contact, but if it's not given, get up and help your team out. There's times he's lying on the deck while the game goes on around him (last week's goal was a case in point.

Thought we were decent throughout and did restrict them to little chances but we are scraping the bottom of the barrel with our squad.

Still I think we will beat Everton and earn a much needed break and rebuild 🙏

Best season in my lifetime ♥️

Loved the reference to the Drum chant. Absolutely hate them in a stadium 😬

I look forward to hearing that chant - to what tune does it go?

Expect it's the same as 'you've seen United, now fuck off home...'

When I saw Isak was missing it didn't knock my confidence that we'd get something. More of a reflection on his, ahem, contributions in recent weeks than my over-optimism that Wilson would use his street-smarts to cunjour something in the box.

I thought our No.9 started well, but faded quickly and faded fast. Cheers Cal, you've been worthy of the shirt.

Won't win them all. However if we'd been 3-0 at half time no one could complain. We should beat Everton but this is football and we are Newcastle United!
