One thing I noticed today was that they were good up until the last third of the field. It seemed they could control it and pass to get up there, but once there couldn't do much else on creating chances. But at least they scored on one of those chances. That was a solid strike.

One thing else though, the defense has been solid. They keep that up for the year, they will be back in the PL next year. They may not be able to stop some of the upper tiered teams like United, Chelsea, Tot, Arsenal, and MC, but they look they can definitely play with everyone else.

I agree our attacking play did break down more today. However, Newcastle are a side who play with a defensive tendency, keep a very solid shape and allow very little space for attackers. We had the moment of quality in the end though

Encouraging signs so far defensively. Southampton next week will be a big test, they have some real flair going forward.
