Edin, what NotSo just said. I'd rather see Dembele given a starting spot over Paulinho. Paulinho is an experiment that hasn't worked and not just under Poch. At least the Dembele one has.

Dembele looks really out of place in our team, and when playing well isn't THAT good.

Reid did so well vs Aguero there, would like him at Spurs.

We have looked better as a team in games where Dembele has played compared to those where Paulinho has. Neither is longterm solution but I have more faith in Dembele when he starts.

Not saying that dembele is a world beater Edin, he's not.

But Paulinho has had so many chances and has been consistently bad. Of the two, Dembele is better.

Exactly this

I'm going to take Real Madrid representative, Les Ferdinand's word on this, and say there's more hope for Dembele.

What games have we looked that much better in?

Aside from vs Chelsea when Dembele was exceptional, none stand out.

Im gonna go for a quick walk before this inevitable hour and a half of boredom.

That shot against Burnley was

He was decent against WBA, and against Palace.

When has Paulinho looked good this season?

Not really sure Poch knows which team to pick. I think he puts all the names in a hat, and just picks them out.

Tbh neither should be in the team!! Think between them they have 1 goal 2 assists

Afternoon all.

Hoping for a convincing win ............ fearing we'll be in a generous mood again

Think it'll be another snoozefest

None really, Spurtle, but my defence is that it doesn't matter which sub-par midfielder plays.

Glenn
Whiney Scouse git
G00ner

I'm as passionate for Spurs as anyone on here but my feeling right now with them.... Couldn't give a f uck. Couldn't careless wether we get 5th or 7th. That annoyed with the attitude and commitment the last few games when we had such a superb opportunity with city in freefall: akways the same every single season. Wouldn't be suprised if Spurs let newcastle get their first win in ages. It's the Spurs way,

Ok

The season's effectively been over for us for a few weeks, it's all about what happens in the transfer window now.

Newcastle have a terrible team

The match is a non-event but if there is a slightly better player than another I'd still rather see them start.
