It's Robin van Persie, innit like?!?

You'd think, but the freekicks of the POV player are taken with the right foot.

Tevez doing really well in these late stages. So little waste from him.

Huge contrast in this game with Cronnie the cunt.

nike make the Dutch football strip, not going to be playing for England, France or Germany when there made by umbro and adidas!!

Well duh. Question still stands though, as random as anything I guess.

They should scrap the 'collect yellow cards and miss the next game' shit when they get to the semi-finals. I know it's meant to be a disincentive to pick up cautions, but honestly, I just think it's very unfair. What if you get booked for fuck all? You miss what might be the only opportunity in your entire career to play in the biggest final in club football. Bollocks, that.

 

I agree on that.

Especially given the way they dish them out in the Champs League

Just seen the long version (he plays for Holland etc.)... cool

I hate ads where it's just one or two random players playing keepy uppy doing "skills" boring as hell.

Plus the footballers beating civilians has been done to death now.

He was due a long range cracker.

The man for the big occasion.

Saw it online today actually. Very cool.

Is it allowed to post a Tube link to it btw? Confused

Ugh... will people stop defending him please.

I, for one, will be wishing Shola goes on to be huge for Stoke should he move on.

Sure, sure... he won't be huge though

But Evra is an immigrant, no? 

Whatever was in his glass was obviously very strong.

Probably wasn't at all tbh.

Is Robert taking up a DP slot?

 

I think so.  Would make sense to me as he wouldn't have come for a regular players salary. 

Seems like he might not be.

Has SSN's even been to our game in the 2nd half?

 

no

 

TBF - nothing at stake.

 

Solano on

As far as I'm concerned he's not a Newcastle player, not a deserving case for great reception like Ferdinand was - Sir Les didn't ask for a transfer - Nobby did.

 

aye, because his family were in london. he made the right decision. Newcastle legend is nobby.

Agreed. Very harsh PhilK.

can someone photoshop this to black and white with the newcastle logo on? I think the newcastle kit would look superb in that design.

 

Meh, it's close enough already... just imagine it

 

Oh, hai there.

Wow, took me a while to figure out what was going on there. But hello mister Clark, welcome aboard I guess

That is pretty tragic. Feel sad for him. Hopefully he can stay mentaly strong.

C. Ronaldo the big time bottler.

 

Pretty much a lone striker in the Nou Camp. Not sure what could have been expected of him tbh. the penalty was shocking though. But does that make Shearer a bottler baring in mind he missed a penalty against Partizan that cost us a Champions League spot, as well as one against Wolves which also pretty much ended our chances of 4th spot that season?

It wasn't even only about the penalty though, as you said anyone can miss (just ironic that again he chooses the biggest stage to fuck up), but his whole attitude towards the game and his teammates stunk to high heavens.

The way he plays with "no fear" I guess is his biggest asset and weakness at the same time. On one hand he isn't afraid to take anyone on, but he also doesnt seem to have much respect for anyone either.

I would have thought the club would make something from every shirt, no matter where it's sold.

Surely that's the case yeah, just a lower margin when there's more intermediaries. That little paragraph is fantastic though

That was a funny goal it has to be said

.... Don't want Chelsea through though! 

They mentioned during the commentary that Enrique was "one of several Allardyce signings out there" praising the fat man for it.

But that's BS the idiot refused to play him all the way until he got the nudge. Fucking travesty.

Harper - 7

Beye - 8

Taylor - 7.5

Faye - 8

Enrique - 8

Geremi - 5

Butt - 8

Barton - 6

Viduka - 6

Owen - 8

Martins - 7

Geremi again man... slow as fuck decision making.

Can't see the criticism of Viduka tbh. Think he's done very well today in his role.
