We might have done Newcastle a favour here.
Harvey Barnes has been pretty good in this game. Not having their Liverpool fan available seems to have worked out quite well.

Liverpool have been shockingly bad but Newcastle have made them look bad

It would have been better for Liverpool to win it. The only way another space becomes available is if Newcastle finish in the top six. At present, the top five are Champions League, sixth UEFA, and Newcastle in the Conference. The FA Cup winners also go UEFA. 7th and 8th come into play if Newcastle are in the top six and/or the FA Cup winners are too. I think.
If Albion finish top six and/or win the Cup then all this doesn't matter.

A bit of both. Newcastle have been excellent but Liverpool just didn’t turn up
Liverpool have been crap

Nice to see a different cup winner.

Liverpool have been dreadful, but in all honesty it's because Newcastle have got their tactics, work rate and desire spot on. They've been pressing, but sensibly, not like headless chickens, thinking with their heads, not hearts. I can't stand smug Eddie, but Newcastle thoroughly deserve being two up. Just depends if they've got enough in the tank to see it out, as their subs bench is poor.
Ee-eye-ee-eye-oh
Beyond crap and the subs haven't helped at all. Can't recall Liverpool being this bad, ever. They can't keep the ball in play
Happy for their fans, and it is nice to see a different winner BUT the Saudi aspect does temper that all. Hardly a feel-good story

Don't want Newcastle to win this at all, but you can't say they haven't deserved it. Unfortunate to only be two up if anything. Liverpool stinking the place out.

Liverpool have been as bad as I’ve seen them this season, completely battered to be honest

I wish Drury would shut the f*** up. Irritating wanker.

Yet, they've won the league at a canter (unless they blow it from here). On todays showing nothing is impossible!

The Saudis are going to be unbearable after this not to mention the nauseating over romanticising of this sports washing project by a supine media.
