In isolation, a point at Newcastle is not a bad result. However, playing Liverpool, City, and Newcastle and coming away with 0 wins would be damning, especially for a team that prides itself on its strong record against the top sides.
3 points is all that matters today. Terrorist ball, the Zubi-Rice-Merino midfield, another lackluster Gyokeres performance, it doesn't matter. Based on performances, we should be at least on par with Liverpool, but we find ourselves 5 points behind. Bring that down to 2 today, and we're in a great position to overtake them in the next few weeks.
