Gayle missed a one-on-one and Diame scuffed a sitter! That's why we didn't win.

I give up. Always looks good, always fucks up. Lost a fortune recently. It's always on one team too.

It's not the defeat, it's the manner of it. We were just shit.

My last two bets, I've been let down by Barca at the weekend and Real tonight ffs. You don't include them and they go on to win like 4/5-0.

It wasn't even a foul, let alone a red card ffs

So either we have to sell to buy, or Rafa plans on using Sissoko if he doesn't go.

Don't like him, don't rate him. Haidara or not, this wouldn't be a good move IMO.

Pretty much this. Think he'll be a decent option in a home game or two against a struggling side. Squad player to get us up, nothing more and nothing less.

Brighton want to go up. If they sell Knockeart to us then they are essentially giving up a big part of first place to us and leaving themselves with 2nd or play offs. They were never going to sell him to us.

Rather than quality, i think the majority of people are concerned about his availability. That being said, if the report of him being fit 'well before Christmas' is correct then he could still play a big part in the second half of the season.

We're probably just signing Judge for the bench Thought he'd end up staying in London. Thought he was a Hammers fan :laugh:

Pissed off that he didn't come off the pitch in tears. Mackem bastard.

Fills you with confidence after two games.

FT. Yay!

5 mins added time

Positive noises about the digital side of things - website, nufctv etc. We're light years behind other clubs and hopefully we see that gap close soon.

I think it's only the third time that we've scored four goals in a league game since March 2014 And two of them have been under Rafa.

Mitrovic is a great option and he's an going to be an obvious talent in this division but the longer we are without him, the more we are relying on him already. That's an awful lot of pressure and it all it needs is for one big centre half to push him too far, and we'll be without him for another month or whatever. We need another goalscorer, a Plan B as it were. One proven at this level would do - look at Villa, I'd probably have moved for exactly who they've now got up front. We're also crying out for more creativity. Somebody to match Ritchie on the other side, or a 09/10 Enrique for one of the full back positions - ideally both. Things will click for Benitez, I have no doubt of that. Like people keep saying, he is a dozen competitive games into a club that has been rotten and mismanaged for the best part of 12 years. It is going to take time but I feel like we should be placing more emphasis on attack rather than defence. We're clearly poor defenders but we're also playing with no confidence, which is leading to more silly mistakes. If we play with a bit of flair, really take it to a team and get a couple of decent wins under our belt, the rest will start to come together IMO.

Will forever remember his Feyenoord CL commentary when Bellamy scored. "HAS THERE EVER BEEN A MORE DRAMATIC NIGHT IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE"

Hope he ends up at Stoke. Prick.

NUFC have said this is bullshit btw.
