Habib Beye sent off for Doncaster. Of Habib "Bye" as Stelling said... see what he did there?

It's a shame that we're so right footed on the left.

Checking out the Frenchies for the group stage

Jonas really has improved on his crossing.

Raylor like a boss.

Shush... let him get in a few condescending "no it isn't" responses first!

This is just a repeat of last week. Post match to midweek: praise Midweek to next game: should do better

... He's such a tease that Pards.

Seems to have 15 in the ACN squad: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Africa_Cup_of_Nations_squads#.C2.A0Senegal

Got to hope Pardew will see Demba, Cissé and HBA as being able to work together. Last weekend's team with Ba playing off Cissé instead of SholaBest could be lovely.

He'll weasel his way into a new contract, like he always does.

He should be a replacement (and upgrade) for Shola.

A Senegalese Scoring a decent amount of goals in half a season for a team bottom of the league hmmmm....

Only weakness is hungry and sleepy.

Get Ben Arfa to find some cult that will convince them they don't have to both do Ramadan at the same time of the year.

Hope so. Would be very silly to keep it vacant yet again just for the sake of it. We need to just give it to someone ffs. If that someone happens to have a decent goal scoring record too, then perfect.

His middle name is Demba... can hardly go wrong with that.

Bringing him in and bringing in a striker ready for the first team were hardly related. Hope he gets a deal with at least a League One club if not better. Would be a great story.

This is going to be what he uses to justify not playing him this weekend?

Go Benny Rabbit!

L'Equipe have him down as using the word "secte" although in a "it was like a sect" way. Reading it over again... The name dropping is pretty bad tbh Did Adb Al Malik and his manager try to take advantage of you? - "Yes, they indoctrinated me at a time when I was very vulnerable. Put the Sheikh on a pedestal, telling me that everyone who went against Sufism were enemies. They were conditioning me."

Number 6 but with the eagle of number 5

Just Bayernmunichy even. Still my favourite though.
