You should get sacked just for playing Heskey as a winger.

Assou-Ekotto's hair must block his eyesight when he turns his head.

That Villa side looks atrocious. Doubt they'll be in top10 this year.

Looks like they love him. 12 in 16 in all competitions. Just got his 100th goal in English leagues. Absolute class act, role model and as professional player as anyone can be.

Am I the only one who expects Obertan to have a mental breakdown if he starts at Old Trafford?

Swedish and Tottenham fan. Urgh. Better than a Norwegian Newcastle fan. Yuk. What is it with those Norwegians hating all other Scandinavians? It's a Mackem-esque obsession! Have nothing against Scandinavians in general. In football on the other hand. That goes for Norwegians as well. I'd say it's the other way around. But that's more an issue for you, Denmark and Finland. Arrogant as it might be, but you lot go unnoticed most of the time. I don't get the point.

Torres misses a sitter.

Yeah, as is customary at OT, the refs referral to Fergie has resulted in the pen being overturned, and a grovelling apology from ref and linesman. God, that place is getting worse every season. It was the right decision though and very impressive from the linesman to see it and make the ref overturn it.

Think about the riots, if Pardew would have told the day Enrique moved that it's no problem, we have Ryan Taylor and I'm sure he'll do fine in the first 11 games.

Everton was shocking, for all the possession in second half they created absolutely nothing. And their defence doesn't look as solid as normally. I doubt that they can climb the table to 7-9 like normally, more like 10-13.

And add a midfield and solid defence and you might get midtable,

Has been fantastic today. Maybe even MOM Sensational.

Think Guthrie just wanted a rest.

Jamie Carragher, is that you? Colo doesn't make last ditch tackles because his sense of positioning is so good he's already read and delt with the situation before a 'last ditch tackle' is needed. Go through Nesta and Ferdinand's career and see how many last ditch tackles they made. Not very many, because it's the sign of a desperate defender who doesn't have a footballing brain. Coloccini's been the best centre half in the league this season and it's a pleasure to have such a classy, ball playing defender in our team.

Thiago Silva?

Not so sure like. He is moving out of his rented house in Darras and buying a canny pad in Jesmond. Wouldn't have thought he would be doing that if he was possibly leaving. He obviously knows something we don't...... Housing arrangements have to be the worst ITK basis ever. Every time. Spot on!

I really don't see Best wanting to leave when he's playing. Maybe if he was fourth choice but we are basically as big club as he can hope for in his career. But that doesn't take anything away from Best, just that I can't see any of the "top 6" ever wanting to sign him.

Is it wrong to be more excited about the Everton game as Marv/HBA now starting?

33% chance of winning in Old Trafford? That's just daft. (or not sure if serious) Anyway you're gonna face a pleasant surprise when you go to your bookie before that game.

Not realy the vibe I got reading there forum post-match like I think they we're very down to earth and one of few other teams forums where I wasn't rolling my eyes all the time.

Just love the expressions of Jonas when he was marking some giant on corner and then when he pulled Krul away after the Huth incident. Comedy gold.

Spot on.

I need a gif of Simpson drying the ball and giving trollface to Stoke fans.
