Kudus has to be the signing of the season. Him and Paqueta are far too good for West Ham.

Agree. Referee should have addressed it with a yellow for simulation after the goal.
This Kudus, Paqueta and Bowen trio is fairly devastating. Antonio makes a big difference as well as he does the more dirty work for them, holding it up and bringing them into play.
Who replaces Howe?
Kudus is flipping amazing. Such a joy to watch, as it Paqueta.
There will still be West Ham fans who want Moyes out. I think he has done a really good job.
TBF you could drop any of those three into any side in the league and they'd do well.
West Ham stays behind us on goal difference 
For now, at least.
For now, at least.All Newcastle fans need is Bruno G to get booked and they will self combust.
I keep struggling to decide whether West Ham are having a good/great season or not. When I look at the table, I would say their current position is great, but the fans seem to be talking about replacing Moyes every week.
The Gordon penalty was ropey to me and Burns was lucky, so noyt like it's been a one way street.
They are stuck in 1966.
A good friend of mine hates him, I say to him your 7th/8th that's about where you should be, he just thinks they are boring to watch I'd rather be 7th and boring than exciting and relegated is always my response
Think Bowen is a better striker than wide player but credit to Moyes for playing all four, pretty gung ho for him
Mourinho would fit them like a glove. Could see the players loving him. Tuchel would not worry me much.
Well hopefully West Ham can hurt Spurs and Liverpool as well when they host them in April.
Actually think they've built a very good squad in spite of him. Imagine them with a modern manager.
He stopped play for the West Ham free kick, not the Newcastle feigned injury.
West Ham won the World Cup so their expectations are always a bit high.
Livramento injured by a ball hitting his foot. Got to feel for the guy. Just can’t stay fit.
Even without injuries they lack quality in midfield and wide
What has actually happened to Newcastle this season? Why have they fallen off a cliff compared to last year? They even started out this season decently over the first 10-12 games.
Why are the comms acting like Newcastle are the only team to have a raft of injuries this season
If Kalvin Phillips holds on he might get brought on for Newcastle.
Injuries, Europe, mediocre squad that was overperforming last season catching up to them.
I suppose they are getting at that their squad can't cope with it.
Steady Eddie is on his way out of Newcastle and I couldn't be happier, the smug twat
They aren't the only ones but feels like they're losing 2 players a game in recent weeks.
I love that the media sometimes treat Newcastle as some small plucky underdog team despite being one of the Top 10 richest clubs in world football in the 90s.
Was Kraft injured?
Only 2? Pfft!
I suppose when a sub goes off who came on for an injured defender is then injured as well, you start thinking somebody has it in for you.
Went straight down tunnel so you would think so.
Tactical change. Unfortunate but not something to get worried about for him.
Gordon has been dreadful today.
Lucy Ward seems to be the co comms for every game on telly
Thought I was the only one who doesn't like his shit eating grin.
That Geordie clown on the Kick Off will get what he deserves
I think that's fair. Overachievement last season to qualify for the Champions League which was always going to stretch the squad to a degree, and despite having Saudi investment money they haven't splashed as much as they might have been expected to.
Still, most people had them around 5th or 6th as a predicition before things kicked off.
Personally I'd say anything below 7th would be below par and right this second they're 10th. If City, Arsenal, Liverpool United, Spurs and Chelsea all had good seasons then I think 7th would be excuasable and they're at a point where they should be next best after those or competing with a team like Spurs for my money.
Seeing as Chelsea have cemented themselves as a mid-table team for the 2nd season in a row now 7th should be very achievable for them. That even allows for Villa's upturn and they could still be there as long as they don't fall behind West Ham, Brighton and Wolves which they currently have done.
