Don't forget Over the Wall Tayls

Was it Heitinga on the tackle...bloody b@stard

I wouldn't say we'll be coming back down to earth, as nobody's getting carried away. Exactly, just a case of another football fan being fooled by the media. How are we 2nd? Just check the battle for 7th post, it'll explain it pretty damn well.

Raylor just blast the hell out of it

He'll be in the 11 soon enough, be it after Simpson or Taylor's form turns, or our unbeaten run ends - he'll be there. I'd like to see him play RB over Simpson - esp in the City, Man Utd, and Chelsea fixtures to come. I think Jonas/Raylor is a brilliant combination on the left side esp vs those 3 sides, but I think Simpson will eventually get ripped to shreds by the stronger wingers over those other 3 matches.

His best moment of the match was that strong tackle on Jones

Don't mind either way if we keep or rid him. If he stays, he should be very low in the pecking order for strikers - but will say he takes 1 hell of a penalty and will always respect his dedication to us in the championship season. Will always respect the man.

We should be going at this for 3 pts and I'm confident we can do that with this team

Loved watching yesterday's match and how we played such brilliant pressure defence (esp. in the first half) with everyone looking to close down the man with the ball, picking up runners and never giving the opposition time with the ball.

I don't care how long he sits on the bench when Besty puts in a shift like that, working his socks off like that. I want to see HBA light it up for us, but as long as we keep winning I don't care about whoever is on the bench.

F*n brilliant today, from the selection and the tactics.

I'd agree with all but I'd have to mention Timmy Krul in there somewhere.

wow strong side that.

Since I dont live in the UK - quick question. Why is that this round, esp later in the stage - and it being a Wednesday night - do they not have every match televised if they are spread out on 2 nights? Is the Carling Cup on Sky only or something? Just curious, seems really stupid no?

Doesn't bother me 1 bit. Actually just makes me like this guy that much more. Clear proof that he's not only a brilliant footballer, quality family-man, but also dedicated to his trade to know how to behave himself and how to be a role model that young footballers should look up to emulate. Top class.

My team as well.

Saw the match, don't remember what he did - care to share?

Clearly looks excited...

He played alright, that run down the left and the snap shot was a treat to watch and something I'm sure we will see more often when he's firing on all cylinders. Should be noted that everytime he has the ball or is winding up for a shot, theres generally 2-4 men around him trying to block it. As the sharpness and understanding kicks in, he'll be laying those off to players in better position. I like what I saw from 45 mins from him - he's no where near ready to start in the PL yet - League Cup 90 mins, and anorther 30-45 min cameo vs Stoke and i think he'll be nearing sharpness and be in a better position to start.

LETS HAVE IT TOON!

Sure I'd take him back, for prob anything less than 18M. But for me, he is not an automatic starter - Ba/Best are in much better form than he currently is. I'd take anyone who would improve our squad tbh.

To those of you get to attend the matches and bring things like this out of a young man who played in the San Siro. I'd be there every match if I lived in the Toon. Just thought I'd mention how amazing it is to support this club when reading something said by such a promising talent in such a short spell here about our atmosphere and such.

Santon should be replacing Simmo honestly.
