    It was much worse, just didn't lead to a goal. There were no NUFC players within 15 metres of where the ball landed.

    Although I loved his performance today, please can I request that he is forbidden from taking throw-ins after today's horrific effort that was probably the worst throw in the PL has ever seen.
  3. There was only two really dreadful pass and that was Ben Arfa for each, a throw in and a backpass that might have led to counter attacks had we not been switched on elsewhere. Not meaning to criticise though as he was great again.
  4. It was like having two Tiotes

    His touch and passing was twice as good as anyone else on the pitch. Cisse, Ba, Cabaye, Tiote, Jonas, Colo made some outstanding touches and passes.
  6. I think central midfield is his best position and he's been waiting years for someone to unlock that potential.

    We only really played 4231 straight after the kickoffs. All of the front 6 took it in turn to play wingers, strikers and holding midfielders.
  8. What the fuck where the fans doing, they looked like they had one of those long dance chains going round their block. We were singing "What the fucking hell is that?"
  9. On my way back from game. Most one sided Newcastle win I have seen in the flesh. The midfield and attack just roamed with confidence and the defence defended perfectly.
  10. The board have a policy against player testimonials don't they? Given, Harper and Shola all signed away their rights to a testimonial and were instead given VIP charity events.
  11. What happens if you read blue and red writing with those glasses? Will the 3d be so intense it tattoos sports direct into your brain?
  12. Poor girl has been raped by an evil man end of story. Goals scored, transfer fee, whether we nearly signed him, and Liverpool fans are all irrelevant.
  13. Just for some Where's Wally fun, if anyone spots me at the game tomorrow and says hello I will give you a tangfastic.

    Was he still with us at Palermo?

    This is why we need a set piece taker signed in the summer. Teams are shit scared of him already and try to foul him but imagine if they were also shit scared of giving away a free kick?

    I can't think of an occasion this season. Well he definitely won a penalty that Ferguson will blame if Man Utd don't win the league. It was a great tackle. The ref just got it wrong. My bad, I had completely forgotten about the incident. Too many good Ben Arfa moments. Apart from the goal and putting the ref on his arse, I don't know if anyone mentioned that moment against Bolton where a waist high ball was going out for a through in, Ben Arfa ran after it and dropped it right at a team mates feet even though the team mate was stood about 15 yards behind him.

  20. It has been good because the so called top four has suddenly looked fallible and keeps needing to be redefined. Outside of Man Utd it is unpredictable. However the top clubs are maybe lacking those wizards from past times and the media and these clubs remain hyping about players that are now past their prime. I am excited for the future though as the current climate is ripe for us to challenge for the league within two seasons.
  21. Our goalkeeper has kept more clean sheets than any other goalkeeper, I think that our defence can not significantly improve although i will be the first to say it needs more depth and can be better offensively. The main reasons we are only joint 4th are that we had defenders injured and our defence and midfield are not creating or scoring enough goals. So while defensive depth is needed, getting more goals from midfield will be what really pushes us on and siggurdson will become world class with regards to that and make us an amazing team.
  22. He would be Pardew's Laurent Robert only in central midfield. If we only bought one player in the summer that we can realistically sign it would be him. Sign him and keep all the others here and fit and we will be in the Champions League every season.
  23. Would pay much more than 8 million for Sigurdsson I think he will become better than Lampard. Defensively we can't improve much more. We are all about the unit and we really just need bodies to cover for injuries and improve consistency. Where we could really leap forward is with quality of set pieces and goals from midfield and Sigurdsson can do that with Cabaye and Tiote bossing the midfield.
