Newcastle had a drop in their performance on Monday at Chelsea. The final score was 2-0 but it was a waltz in the park for the Blues. However, we didn’t witness one of the horror shows that have been on display at times this season. But it was not to the standard set in the previous matches, of which Newcastle picked up two valuable wins.
Miguel Almiron continued his fine form being one of the better Magpies on the pitch at Stamford Bridge. The Paraguayan has again topped our poll as Newcastle’s best player for his performance on Monday. This is his sixth poll win in the last seven matches.
Loading ...Now it’s on to Manchester United for a late Sunday match with the Magpies perilously close to the relegation places. With the game coming on Sunday, there’s still a chance our situation will be even dodgier by kickoff.
On Wednesday, Fulham and Burnley played their match in hand and battled to a 1-1 draw, which is actually a good result for Newcastle. The Cottagers do claw back another point but still remain 6 points adrift while Burnley only jumped to 2 points and 2 places ahead in the table.
They both have fixtures on Saturday that they’ll hope to get something from so we’ll get a better bearing on where we stand after their matches. Hopefully, Fulham won’t get all three points at home against Sheffield United.
Manchester United only managed a draw at 19th placed West Brom last weekend. They’ll play tomorrow in the Europa League traveling to Spain to take on former Magpie Mikel Merino and Real Sociedad.
Newcastle are coming off two straight 4-1 defeats to Manchester United. We held on in the home match earlier this year before the floodgates opened and the Red Devils scored three late goals.
Last season, Matty Longstaff got Newcastle out to a quick start with an excellent strike on Boxing Day at Old Trafford. But the joy was short-lived as the lads were played off the pitch after taking the early lead.
Manchester United have had a few wobbles against teams in the lower half of the table. So we’ll see if Newcastle can take advantage of a hectic week for them. A better start to this one is a must and hopefully, the lads can get a result on Sunday.

Good here thanks but getting really frustrated now with lockdown!
Equally frustrated with the state of our football club.
I had thought for a long time we would muddle through this year 13 – 16th. Then takeover heaven.
Relegation is now a real possibility with our only real goal threat out for the foreseeable.

Comment #74Bruce has no plan.
The team have changed for the better since Jones has come in.
We still lack confidence and desire but appear to be trying a lot more.
Injuries are crippling us.
We are so in a relegation fight.
Something has to change as we are giving Fulham confidence….

Comment #75Yip Asi lockdown and home schooling is hard going. I read a fishing blog too and the guys talk about fixing their sheds and putting up shelves etc during furlough. All I’ve had is work indoors and sharing the kitchen “office” with my chattering young fella. Its been rough enough.
