Everyone sleeping on Newcastle

Gary is right, Onana is definitely one to watch if he's going to clatter into you.

I’m a City fan and I think it’s absurd to count NewCastle out of the top 4 especially after seeing how well they finished last season and how well they started. If they keep this up, they’re gonna give a lot of teams problems and I’m a little nervous about playing them this coming weekend after the Super Cup

Chelsea and Spurs not having European games to contend with this season could be massive for their league campaign

underrated Office reference from Carra "this is the real quiz"

Mark my words Sandro Tonali will turn out to be blockbuster signing regardless. Newcastle will finish top4 💯

Sky doing their absolute best to kill their own product.

Us newcastle fans know its going to be a hard season with the extra competitions, we are just loving the journey at the moment! How they didn't vote Sandro Tonali as impact signing is beyond me. Scored 6 mins into his debut, could of had a second. Was involved in the set-ups leading to most the goals and his all round performance was incredible.

Gary predicting Arsenal winning the league is so unexpected 😂

Isak is one to watch this season... Watch how many goals he will get this season for Newcastle if he stays fit ⚽️

To be honest Newcastle are the most explosive and entertaining team ive seen in a long time. They will contend this year. Their omission is strange.

Be very very interesting to see how newcastle get on in the champions league

Gary not having Newcastle even in his top 6 is mental.

How does Karen get air time smh

Love Carra’s David Brent sayings “this is the real quiz” 🤣

That Karen one hasn’t a clue

Who asked for Karen Carney on MNF?

Absurd that none of them picked Everton to go down. I think they will really struggle this season.

Turned off soon as Karen spoke, just like i would if they had a Sunday league player on. Same thing

I think Newcastle, Spurs and Chelsea are being slept on heavily this season. I’m here for it!

MNF much better with just Jamie and Gary

Please make MNF great again.

City have lost Mahrez and Gundogan to Saudi & Barca, De Bryune to a long term injury...now anyone who is a fan of Pep's teams knows he likes to play with midfielders the fact he only has Grealish, Silva and sometimes Rodri means this will be a hard PL, I don't who will the league this year is open season but I feel as if City will come 2nd.

Carney there to stop the banter and contentious debates? Sure she’s a nice enough woman but not sure about the new dynamics.

Prior to his knee injury, I would have gone with Timber for Arsenal and the Impact Signing. But I'd go with Carra's choice of Onana or Neville's Rice choice. They seem like they'll gain some cohesion in their new teams pretty quickly.

Newcastle had a fantastic second half of the season, winning about 11/12 of their last 15 games. They then buy Barnes and Tonali and have Isak and Wilson on fire yet the pundits don't think they'll finish in the top 5.... bit strange..

I’m so glad that pundits are dismissing Newcastle as being a threat this season, means we can go under the radar which suits Eddie Howe perfectly.

People are fuming about KC on twitter. Sky Sports can delete comments on here but not on Twitter. 9/10 people feel MNF is ruined now.

How is Karen Carney getting booked on Sky Sports? She either works for free or her agent has some serious photographs in their safe.

Why add another pundit to MNF? MNF are known as the Jamie and Gary show. Not the same.

LOL, even as a Chelsea fan I find it laughable these guys don't count Newcastle in the top 4. Pundit bias is another level, please get some non MU/LIV ex-players on your panel.

Even with the extra games of the CL Newcastle will have this season I will still back them for the top 4, they have a couple of very good youngsters introduced to the first team (Anderson, Miley) and in addition to the first team incomings don't forget there is still a number of weeks left to bring in I think 1 more, then we have the January window also which im sure the club will do further business. So I think it is very daring to bet against them achieving Top 4 once more.

The disrespect to Newcastle. I think they'll definitely make top 4

Spurs are being underestimated. Looked good against a very good home side in Brentford and are only going to get better, especially if as expected another forward is signed.

Great reference to David Brent's "we were talking about Dostoyevsky..." by Dave at 1:23

0:38 I can recall City dropping off twice since Guardiola went there. His 1st season they finished 3rd on 78 points and then the Covid year, 19/20 they were 2nd but only had 81 points. They have dropped off a couple times. Funnily enough those two years are the ONLY years they didn't win it since he's been there. Which would actually suggest that they HAVE to drop off for somebody else to win it, because every other year, they've won the title.

MNF is Carra and Neville, plus a guest. If Caren is prominent ont his show, its not gonna be received as much as it has been

Did Sky Sports get a new studio? I don't remember seeing this before. It's super nice. As much as I love Liverpool, with a proper midfield, I think Liverpool will be hard pressed to make the top four. I think Newcastle makes top four again instead of Liverpool. Newcastle is a completely different club now that they have owners who actually spend money

Everyone in the comments praising Newcastle...they just got beaten 1-2 by a 10 men side Liverpool..this aged well 😂

The show is better with just Gary & Carra with the host

It’s so hard to predict anything this season, so many teams are going to have good squads and be challenging for silverware.

“Newcastle can’t keep this going” 5 losses in last 40 Prem games and now we’re even stronger. Keep praying

Looks like the shoe section in JD SPORTS!

For 18 month Newcastle have been playing great and have been getting better, yet everyone still writes them off. Newcastle are not going away because you don't like them or you have an agenda against them.

Crazy that we're STILL getting written off even after 5-1 against the team so many pundits are saying will be better than us this season! Villa, Brighton and Liverpool have to deal with Europe as well! They talk about how fantastic Howe is (which he absolutely is) but still don't actually believe in us to do anything. Of course no one is challenging Haaland for that golden boot (in all probability) but I really fancy Isak to be up there with the top scorers. He is just so insanely composed in front of goal, nothing phases him at all. Tonali really is like his hero Gattuso but with better technique. I'm hoping he can be like the Italians thought he could be and be that mix between Gattuso and Pirlo: that wouldn't be too shabby!!

Big Ange says "hiya,mates!"😂😂😂

Man😢 city isn't the same anymore...am not saying it's impossible for them to take it again but am afraid it's going to be harder than ever... and btw Sevilla was a glitch of just that

How has Carney suddenly be inserted into MNF? Did anyone ask for this?

Keep underestimating Newcastle. Keep the pressure off. Suits us down to the ground.

The funny thing is that I feel that Spurs will actually be unshackled by Kane's departure. For better or for worse, the club had been unable to sign a proper understudy to him, with many upcoming talent (probably and rightfully) reluctant to send their brightest years playing second fiddle to a leading striker who is the nation's darling. Kane's departure leaves a power vacuum that I can see many people salivating to fill - Son, Richarlison, someone new, etc. With Maddison's arrival finally filling that Eriksen shaped hole, it could be the spark for a wild season. For the predictions, I am predicting Man City / Arsenal to duke it out for the title, with Newcastle in third - they actually have pretty good depth and tangible upward momentum that not many clubs have. Spurs and Liverpool for 4-5, in no particular order. Villa in 6th, because they, unlike Brighton, didn't lose key players and made good signings (on paper). My relegation picks are Bournemouth, Sheffield United, and West Ham. West Ham, in particular, are giving me Leicester vibes. They did at least sign Alvarez from Ajax, which could save them from relegation.

As a United fan honestly keeping an eye on Newcastle till Christmas. Let’s see how they cope with pressure from the champions league aswell as the league

City, Arsernal, Newcastle, Chelsea

After the first round of games, Newcastle had the most impressive performance and score line. They were sensational in the second half against Villa.

5:58 "Have you changed your prediction" "From what, this is the prediction" 🤣🤣

I don't know about winning, but for me personally, Newcastle is the team I enjoyed watching the most (I started watching from last half previous season to pre-season). The ball just flows smoothly, they are hard on attacking, and the players seem to be able to communicate very well on the pitch. Everyone seems to know what anybody else is doing and needs.

Why on earth would you add Karen carney to this, abysmal decision

There are a lot of teams that can nibble points off’ Man City. Its the team that can consistently go about their business quietly, stay in the race and have a strong end of the season that will win it i think. Arsenal could be the team to do it this season but the Timber injury worries me a lot.

I think they respect Newcastle but they had a drop off last season at the end and they were basically playing two competitions, and with the way they play, a few injuries can have them struggling and champions league football as well, they aren't used to it. So it will affect them. But i think top 5.. For them.

Tonali and guimareas is the best pivot in premier league. Isak is the best young striker behind haaland. Trippier is arguably the best rb in premier league. Newcastle are dangerous!

I love how underrated we are, we will shock you all. Come on You Spurs

I am so happy this is back

Pep started managing in 2008, that is he's being in management for atleast 15years now

Carra + Gary = good banter. Adding yet another box ticker ruins it.

Karen Carney and Jamie Carragher have gone with the 3 promoted sides from last season’s Championship to all get relegated. That hasn’t happened since 1997/98.

I am Italian and I have seen the Newcastle match last days .....I think they have a good team with a group of midfields of quality I think they arrive in a second position they need another new player for winning the premier ....chiesa

It’s ridiculous for anyone to predict anyone other than City to win the league because the betting market has the second favourites at 5-1 and while the market can be wrong it’s rarely that wrong. That doesn’t mean another team won’t win it. Of course they can. It’s just that saying who it is is tantamount to saying they should be odds on.

I'm pretty confident newcastle will make it to the top 4 again

I see Karen Cairney I switch off… Simple

Newcastle right now remind me of liverpool when klopp tookover, already at a good level, buying gems with a good manager to develop them AND have the money to do the big players too when the time is right. very scary i think 100% their top 4/5.

Be interesting to see how City are this season. City lost Kompany in the summer 2019 & centre backs to injury. Not to mention a drop off after 2 in a row & not replacing Kompany when he left. So they have had a drop off before. Wouldn't surprise me if there was a drop off. However, the difference is bar Arsenal (and they're a maybe on that) there isn't anyone who could capitalise like Liverpool in 19/20. We could still see city win the league but on a points tally lower than 85 for instance. City need to make another signing or 2.

Still writing Newcastle off 😂

Not a Newcastle supporter but I think they'll do better than what those 3 have predicted and tonali will surprise a few people too, carra is a total fraud as usual

How many times have Gary Neville mentioned when United won the treble.

Newcastle has an incredible lineup and are the dark horse for the season for me. Everyone writing them off already only works to their advantage. As a liverpool fan this transfer window has been shambolic and I see us playing catch up for a while but still think we can clinch top 4 or even maybe knick the title off city

The problem last season wasn’t that Neville said we wouldn’t win the league, he said we would get 3rd after United when were like 12 points ahead of them

Mitomas decision-making is anything but perfect! Has she even watched any of his games?

City had a bit of a lull partially due to about 75% of their squad in the World Cup last year, and each player was integral for their respective countries, playing a lot of games. Arsenal, not as much. City also has depth, Arsenal a bit more now, United a bit more now, Chelsea a bit more now. Spurs, Liverpool, Newcastle... if VVD, Guimaraes, or Son get injured, each respectively will drop from 4th to 9th, just like Liverpool did last year with their injuries. They still have 3 weeks but good teams play a lot of games, and rotate the starting 11. You can't have the same 11 all season, and I don't see some teams getting away with that right now.

Impact signing: Caicedo Not only bringing in one of the best CDMs in the league but also allowing Enzo Fernandes to flourish in a more advance position. Basically 2 signings in 1😂

Neville picking Bournemouth to go down is hilarious, he’s in for a shock.

As a City Fan the haaland argument is so stupid. Alvarez can step up and even before both of them city won the league. Also with kdb injured. If rodri would be out for a while that would be the real risk.

those shoes are criminal

Was Karen a winger?

I don't know why everyone is looking down on Newcastle ..... I'm pretty sure Arsenal and Newcastle will be the only team to challenge City Also Tonali will be the transfer of the season

Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher must be best best friends😅 I love their arguments 🙌

Gary Neville is saying Man City won't win it more in hope than anything imo

“They’re not competing for the same signings as Chelsea and Liverpool” Yes because Newcastle aren’t dumb enough to pay 100 million for Caicedo.

Gary’s Arsenal prediction is in the hope we don’t do 4 in a row rather than expectation

Surprised to see everyone tipping Liverpool for top four. They looked a mess on Sunday and are at least two players short for me.

This new studio design is awful

Last season Newcastle and City had the least loses (5) again both teams conceded least goals (33). Newcastle and Brentford had a staggering 14 draws which was the most in the league. It’s not that they scrapped results it’s just they couldn’t score! Now they got a fit and serious Isak and the best bench no9 in the premier league who should be fit due to not playing full 90 along with signing Harvey Barnes, Gordon starting to show why Howe signed him and Tonali looks like he can put the ball in the back of the net better than Longstaff. Considering all these factors I can see Newcastle challenging for the title. Newcastle need a result on Saturday against City a City without KDB for four months and if they do get a result! Game on!

Can't help but feel Jamie is dismissing NUFC's transfer business when he says 'they are signing targets the top clubs aren't going for' - isn't that a good thing when said clubs are spending north of 100m on arguably worst players. NUFC are being very methodical and sensible with their signings IMO - and they are all young enough to grow and develop further under Howe's tutelage.

Luton to get relegated is an obvious choice, but as many here in the discussion pointed out, Everton, but even Fulham should be there considered (or at least mentioned) for the relegation, not only 4-5 clubs as Carragher said. For me, all 3 freshly promoted teams, Bournemouth, Wolves, Fulham, Everton and Nottingham will fight together for Premier Leagues status. I believe Burnley and Bournemouth will be safe, but it is early to judge.

I just wish Newcastle beat ManU and Liverpool this season 😂

You know after the Gameweek 1, everyone dreamed Newcastle United to "do a Leicester". Winning the Premier League and played better in the Champions League is an impossible achievements. As for English clubs in the Champions League this season, it will be an all-English Final again.

Gary: they're probably 3/4 teams that could go down! IT IS REQUIRED that 3 teams go down, they're like a few that could

carney is the Alan partridge of sky football

Wait, Neville thinks that all the players that Newcastle have bought who've played Chamions League football before are going to wilt when put on the big stage? Again. Tonali was just in the Semis!

Everyone is sleeping on Newcastle why ? ...from where I'm standing they're playing the best football

It was unreal!

Whether people are right or wrong about Newcastle’s depth there’s a few points… People talk as if Villa and Brighton will fair better and yet they’ve still got to compete in European competition also, competition that realistically they could probably hope to challenge for and might overextend themselves in (with arguably worse depth than Newcastle) Yet do you really think Newcastle will allow themselves to overextend themselves in a competition they know they likely won’t win and are unprepared to go the distance in (when they already know they are ahead of schedule) at the risk of jeopardising their qualification the following season? which would result in them missing out on revenue to strengthen the team further and possibly end up being turned down by transfer targets who want Champions League football. Would they really want to set themselves back 2-3 years all for the sake of getting carried away with the novelty of Champions League, seems doubtful to me.
