Would have won if he'd been out there. He wouldn't have stood for the first half bullshit.

Our start hasn't been that bad considering the teams we've been up against. Villa was disappointing yes but overall it's decent enough. Hopefully now we can push on.

Amazing how him coming on as a sub feels so good now

Needs time. We know now that he's not ready to start. He missed most of his first season through injury so won't be up to speed with the league yet.

Honestly Anita really deserves praise. His pace meant Baines couldn't get in behind any more.

Biggest difference other than the obvious (Ba) was Anita at right back and moving Jonas over. Completely shut down their left flank.

Seriously someone please get the Jagielka pic. I need a good wank right now.

Thought the ref had an excellent game for us by the way. Just the one poor moment when he didn't let Ben Arfa play on and score.

Wonder if Cisse is gonna have the barren run whilst Ba scores all the goals now?

Has any one got a pic of Jagielka's face when Ba scored?

A second half performance to be proud of. Really should have won it when Ben Arfa was through though.

Much better already

I always knew Ba's brother was a smart man

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS

Aye never thought I'd say it but we could use a bit of Shola up there giving us an actual physical presence.

It's really not getting any better...

Nothing to do with Demba though so who cares.

ffs, is Ba on the bench????? Yes

Like that line up.

Will be nothing.

To be honest I don't really give a shit if they're baying for our blood. All I want is a result to kick start our season.

Neil will screw Everton over and reveal that he's been a Newcastle fan all along.

Due a bad performance then.
