It was pathetic to see the comments on the BBC web page while the match was going on. Things like "Manu (to give them their official name) is a team that needs to win trophies." Why? Newcastle haven't won a trophy for nearly 70 years and yet have crowds comparable to "ManU"'s. As for "There is no commitment from the players" - It's the players' shop window: if they want to play for a better club, they have to show they are good enough. They are committed all right - but they are not very good. For most of us, this is a hugely satisfying situation. Brentford only had about 35% of the possession, too. Prediction: Manchester United (to give them their old name) will beat Newcastle twice this season!
