I think it's the home games where we really need to make a statement. Fans should still go to away games, but it's an empty St James Park that might hit Ashley hard.

I like it. He's a coach of fucking WBA, he's not a CEO of some amazing company.

Gateshead seems to be on TV worldwide except in the UK.

Silky,Hulk and Fred ? ESPN I guess? since they're on ESPN Brasil over here.

Just wanting to say it'll be the first time I watch them play live on TV today. Televised here in Brazil against WBA. More excited about this then I would've been with our game.

He's worthless that's why. Might as well get his wages off the books. Not if the new manager wants him His value is zero. You asked why Ashley doesn't sell him, the answer is he's worth nothing. Out of contract in the summer, clubs abroad can talk to him now, hasn't played regularly for almost a year and has serious question marks over his mental state. Giving him away is about the best when can hope for, we may even have to pay part of his wages to get the move away. http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/14kwrhk.gif

Strange. I thought your defensive hero Dummet was far worse, along with Williamson and Janmaat. Coloccini wad probably the best of the back four ask things considered. Janmaat was by far and I mean by far the best defender on the pitch because he has a decent first half. They were all terrible at best overall though, and Dummett was by far the worst player on the pitch imo with our goalkeeper.

Seeing Chelsea getting beat has cheered you up Mou off the top as it stands, still can't believe City p*ssed it away again Burnley. He's struggling tactically for balance which is unusual considering the start they made tho the season. Think the have to play Cesc as a number 10 and get a more dynamic partner for Matic personally they lack drive in the middle of the park for me. Bingo! Cesc number 10, and Ramirez alongside Matic. So obvious. No idea why Fabregas plays so deep. He'd get 3 assists a game further up the pitch. Oscar and Willian don't do anything near enough as far as assists and goals go. I know many will disagree but I don't think Oscar is good enough to start for a team like Chelsea. Does work very hard to be fair though Good enough when he wants. Just way too inconsistent. Reminds me far too much of Coutinho. Seems to have some spells where he is absolutely amazing mixed with those where he just throws himself tackling everywhere without purpose (like at the World Cup).

Think Ayoze will turn out to be a far better and more consistent player. I'm not sure. Maybe consistency, but Ben Arfa at his age was amazing as well. Ball glued to his feet.

Really isn't, this is exactly how we've played under Pardew all year.

Send Mike Williamson off ffs.

Really is your avatar

Alnwick is terrible man. Must be averaging like 3.5 goals a game.

Sissoko wanting to be sent off.

Want to say it's the second best talent we've had at this club in the last 10 years. Only Ben Arfa is better in terms of talent.

Seriously, all that first half excitement for nothing.

WTF IS HAPPENING?

This second half is exactly how we've played in all of 2014 under him.

Ings is a very good player tbh

We're really lucky right now

FFS. Knew that was going to happen as soon as Armstrong came on. Burnley are really on top here. We're sitting deep again

How? He's had his chances and missed. His link up hasn't been very good. Think he had to come off personally.

Armstrong? Alrighty, rather have Cabella but whatever.

need Cabella. Also Ayoze

Had enough of Riviere. Time to bring Cabella on now.
