Xhaka’s fine when the opponents are weaker and he’s not under any pressure, but falls apart when the going gets tough. I’ve not seen him play as well for Arsenal as he did for the Swiss, but then that might be down to how he’s (not) managed??

Ronaldo's 'Homecoming' against us tomorrow should be interesting. The lad looks after himself at 36.
Our (Newcastle's) last great return might be Keegan back for 2nd stint as manager and it didn't go well.
A homecoming for Andy Cole, Nobby Solano, Shola, Les Ferdinand, Ginola, Cabaye. Good times..

You know when your the better team & should be 2 or 3 up......and you are losing 2-0  🙂  Only 50 mins gone & we will be formidable (sometimes) this season but no cigars.  Saw the effect of Man Utd having a talisman....we sell ours.  Ah well UTV.

A moment in footie  - Ronnie coming back & scoring twice - even the Glazers turned up.
Perhaps they could make a Mancie movie about it staring Giggs. Sell the soundtrack and recover 
Ronnie's costs...

13 stories in today's Mail about his return. Ryan on G Wing, the movie, is the current speculation to cover the costs, sponsored by Stennaline.

I am really sorry I like and admire Ronaldo and do see him as being one of the best two footballers of this generation . Yet I am now very bored with the stupid over the top coverage that has been going on for days . Man Utd according to some will now win all competitions they are in and will take over the world by the end of the season . Well a good signing but sorry not that good and all they beat was Newcastle at home not Manchester City or Chelsea .

And just a thought well done Colin Arsenal got their first points on the board it should be all up from now.

Great atmosphere at the game yesterday. As always I went to the supporters club first, which is by the old stadium, and had a couple of pints and a chinwag with some fans. I decided to walk to the ground a bit earlier than usual, as we we were all issued new members cards, which are now used for entry, and I could foresee  some teething problems. As I was walking round the perimeter of the Emirates at 2.15. an almighty roar erupted from within, as though we had just scored a goal, quickly followed by the old chant of "Viera, woah Viera!". It sounded as though the stadium was already full and we had scored. When I got in I found the concourse was rammed with fans who had arrived early to take advantage of the bogof for beers, up to an hour before KO, and the Palace v Spurs match was on all the screens, which of course Palace won, and our old captain is now managing :)  . So the fans were in great heart, and carried this forward at the start of the game, which made for an electric atmosphere!

I never knew your real name was Trevor Sinclair.

Absolutely loving the coverage myself.

You must be. I know I would want to know all about a player who left my team to better his career and then returned at the end of it for half a million a week. I would relish those 13 separate Mail headlines trying to convince me that it is something other than that.

In the space of 24 hours Trevor Sinclair went from "final piece of the jig-saw, he will guarantee the goals to finally secure a Champions League win for Man City" to "he's 36, not the player he was, and his legs wont be up to the pace of the Premier League".

It was glorious to listen to. Absolutely loving it.

Tomiyasu looks like he could be a great addition Colin.
Yes he had a pretty good debut, but there were a few errors as well, he acquitted himself well, especially as he had only had one or two training sessions with the team.

Couldn't sleep yesterday morning so got up early and as I often do on a Saturday watched an old "Big Match" episode from 1975 on BT Sport, dear old Brian Moore doing the honours.  I love a trip down memory lane and the games on offer including Arsenal v Liverpool and Stoke City v Man City were well worth it. The contrast between modern day "carpet" pitches and the mud patches back then is so striking. The Highbury pitch from February was an absolute bog, and Stoke City's was no better. I would love to see how Cristiano, Mo, Romalu et al would have fared back then.

Fortunately, I haven't heard that, though I did hear a lot of United fans talking about tainted legacies, despite him not being a United player for nearly 2 decades. I personally would much rather continue with Ferran Torres and bring through Liam Delap than buy someone like Ronaldo, fabulous player though he undoubtedly had been. Still, the tribalism of football will always stop us seeing the truth, at times. Personally, I relish United failing - a legacy of a club authorised banner at Old Trafford counting the number of years since a City league win; rarely have I seen something so petty and disrespectful being authorised by a club. Needless to say, I hope this season is also a failure for you but not as much as I hope it is a success for my team.

Well a good performance by Liverpool even though we wasted far too many chances. Very sad for Elliot looks to be a very bad break which will keep him for some time. His return to Liverpool this season has been a huge bonus just hope his recovery is both simple and quick with no detrimental long term effects YNWA.

Such a shame for a young player breaking through to have this. I wish him the strength to fight his way back.

Likewise 😂 ( though I'm getting more and more convinced that we'll be both looking up at Chelsea come May )

Well quicker than anyone thought the all conquering Man Utd have been laid laid low by the mighty european giants Young Boys of Berne . So after a mighty win against the strong rivals of Newcastle they are now facing the reality signing a single player does not make any team .
