There was extra space elsewhere because Palace made sure there was always at least two men on him immediately. These things make a big difference.

Just seen the goal again, what a sensational ball from HBA. Even better than I thought at the time.

Gouffran wasn't on the left wing at any point, he was central all day long. I thought he was terrible tbh. Never hid of course, never does, but offered absolutely nowt.

Formation change.

Chris Hughton hates mackems.

Love him.

He's absolute fucking class.

Find it offensive and insulting that I'm paying to watch that garbage whilst Ben Arfa is available. Disgustingly shit.

Newcastle fans that love getting smashed off mackems. Wouldn't have thought they existed but you learn new stuff all the time.

Fucking hell.

Made a complete mockery of the best left back I've seen play for Newcastle too.

Would he have scored those 2 standout goals against decent opposition though? He's a flat track bully. Agreed. Such a shame the 19 other teams in the Premier League are all superb.

"Not enough goals and assists" From the bloke who played Jonas in that position for years, and now plays Gouffran there.

Aye it's definitely Hatem Ben Arfa that's lost my trust, rather than Alan Pardew who lubes up Newcastle United's arsehole every time he sees a mackem.

Why are so many clubs so eager to move to bigger grounds or expand if it matters so little?

Ferguson. Yep.

Absolutely. While I think Moyes was bashing his head off his own glass ceiling, there's no doubt whatsoever that he laid down incredibly solid foundations within the first team, perfect for another manager with a bit more attacking nous. Martinez couldn't have picked a better job for himself, real test for him is when he has to start replacing the old guard with his own players, especially at the back.

Are you eight years old?

And haven't scored a goal without Remy, and collapse defensively without Coloccini. We're not just dependant on one player being fit, we need several key players all fit, or it all falls apart. Liverpool's league record when Suarez was banned was P9 W6 D2 L1 F15 A4. They also lost Sturridge for two months and in that time, they had four consecutive wins of 5-1, 4-1, 5-0 and 3-1. Our manager meanwhile claims that he is completely powerless to stop us getting battered off sunderland if he has any injuries whatsoever.

Canny rich for any of our fans to claim that we didn't deserve to lose when winning matches that we haven't deserved to win is Alan Pardew's speciality. The bloke built an entire 5th place finish on it.

The goal came from the foul on De Jong though. Which goal?

So glad we never bought him, Larsson. I've seen death row prisoners with more moral right to an existence than that cunt.

The linesman gave offside didn't he, which it wasn't? My stream was a bit ropey tbf, certainly wasn't over the line.

They scored a perfectly good goal that was disallowed didn't they?
