Have you only been following us for a couple of years? The seasons under Souness were far worse. Far worse in what way? I can safely say I've enjoyed two games this season - Chelsea and Bordeaux at home. In Souness' first season, we got just as far in the UEFA Cup but far more enjoyably because we scored a shitload more goals (28 vs 13), got to an FA Cup semi (Spurs and Chelsea at home were great days), the league campaign was f***ing dire but we still managed more away wins, less away defeats, less home defeats. We also finished 11 points clear of the drop, which we'll be lucky to do this season. It was rotten and yet there's literally nothing about this season which is better. As usual you're talking utter toss. Agreed.

Imagine coming from Ajax, to play under Pardew man.

Even Shearer would look shite in this line up.

Anita should not be judged this season, he's working under Pardew ffs

The relegation season we knew we were shit after Keegan went, this season we had high expectations of top 8, even under Keegan we weren't expecting too much.

None of these guys are as good as we say they are. Just like the mackems under bruce

Not really, as he's very good going forward. We have to use his strenghts. No point in playing him if can't bomb down the wing. I know what you mean, but we continued to play it down that side even though it wasnt working. Having a full back like that is a luxury, not plan A.

I know its a disgrace that he should be relied on in an attacking sense.

With the right manager he would be class. He's shite when he has to make his own decisions without a manager telling him how to play.

Rose had him in his back pocket? He's a right back, its not his main job to be the most creative player on the pitch. Says it all when your only outlet for the first 65 minutes is a right back.

Corners, wish it was 5 aside and play off the walls.

We play 2 rigid lines, defence and attack. Cabaye and Tiote we so deep, then Sissoko was miles away from them. This team's potential is falling by the game with that prick in charge. We can laugh at Sunderland for having spastic fans as much as we want, but they stuffed us today and could have been out of site by half time.

I watched this with my dad, who is a mackem. FML

How can you not pass the ball 10 fucking yards.

Being shit for a month, or good for 1 or 2 games. Suggests he is shit?

Credit where its due, out played, out worked and out though.

You can't play a man on performances of a few years ago. He's shit.

We should just change the forum to Dell Boi's avatar for the new few weeks.

Ive just lost all interest in football

My girlfriend is currently sporting the same hairstyle as jonas. I want to punch her

No link up play at all. Sissoko is useless up there

Hopefully he will just camp out in there half.

Need him back next week. He improves us ten fold.

We had barely any injuries last season,

7am my time. Fuck.
