Dunk is on a long contract so the club won't sell for anything less than 15 million, Norwood looks perfectly capable of filling Stephens' boots
Does he? Norwood looks a good player but the energy and power of that Kayal-Stephens axis is going to be hard to replicate. By his own admission, Norwood's at his happiest just in front of the defence whereas Stephens never wanted to sit back. He'd always be close to Kayal, snapping at players' heels, backing him up and vice-versa. That's not to say Hughton won't be able to get that dynamic again given time - but have we got that time if we want to finish top 2? There's no sugar coating it - Stephens' departure would be a huge loss, breaking up possibly the best midfield pairing in the division last season, a pairing which made it possible to play 4-4-2 successfully.

Huddersfield did play them before they started to get their sh** together though. They're starting to look more like the team they should be given the players at their disposal.
Rubbish? Pull yourself together! Have a nice cup of tea and slip on a Val Doonican CD. 'Memories are made of this' is a good 'un

As we always do,time to get a few players in with a bit of spirit and grit,all we have are a few over paid pretty boys.

Is that Val Doonican modelling our third kit?
We are just rubbish, aren't we? Let's all kill ourselves, shall we?
I can'ts stand any more of this doom and bloody gloom. We lost. Get over it. NEXT!

I thought that at first but the second goal was a beauty. When Sky did their analysis of the second goal, Shelvey could have curved it left or right so Stockdale really didn't guess right which can happen to any keeper.

Right fouls in right areas by right players who learnt not to repeat. That is part of the game. 22 fouls committed by Newcastle and we were pony at converting the consequent chances. Poor delivery, and good defending by home team. Straight lines, which contrasts with the horrible arc that let in Lascelles.

It didn't help that Duffy & Dunk had not time to get to know each other. Our defence wasn't up to much today.
Brace yourself Thunder Bolt. I agree!!!
The second goal was well taken, he bent it outside of the post and dragged it back. The first goal as Holloway pointed out, he took an unfortunate step to the left. It happens.

Wow, enjoy your evening. Knockaert converts, 1-1 , 11 men, different game. The commentators said this themselves. Goals completely change the context of the match; had we equalised momentum would have changed. No complaints from me except against those who seek to generalise from one game. 18 regular League games undefeated before today, most of us would have settled for that after Cardiff.

Hurray. I knew we'd agree about something.
