This is the typical game where we will be left devastated by NUFC again. We win a couple of games and start playing with effort and chances, then along comes another one of those "winnables" and we are left on the floor like a rookie boxer taking a left cross and going down...oh well! Then again, we might just put five past them if Mitro finds his shooting boots

Shelvey would hold and "spray", whilst janmaat overlapped. thes rest would just go dam horseshi# crazy all out attack !!!

If we went 433 or 442 we could deffo fit berahino into the side. We could do with some raw pace and skill up front to offset Mitro's obvious qualities and defects... I would rather the 433 version as someone previously stated, all out Keeganesque attack.... Yipppee ----------------------------Elliot-------------------------- Janmaat----Mbemba--------Colo----------Dummet (jack) ------Sissoko---------Shelvey----------Perez-------- ----Berahino------------Mitro-------Wijnaldum-----

Do we know anything about his injury? Are we stuck with Colback at left back?

Colo had his best performance this saturday past, and a couple of better ones before that. But if you look at his half season he has been crap more times than good, the season before was a farce, so all in all I would still like to see a good centre back bought this window (behind a striker)...

He was too much of a passenger in earlier games, suppose it could be adjustment to pace of the games here. He is much more active now and doesn't have so many of those dissapering acts, he seems to be involved a lot more both defensively and obviously offensively. I think Ayoze is doing well out on the wing, he covers a hell of a lot of ground but seems to fade badly in second half (nearly always...)

The goals dry up and they need a Plan B, aahh ah hahahaha! Deja Vu!

Here's one to think about; Emile heskey was a very well respected forward who didn't score that many goals (by memory, wiki will probably leave me open to attack) but he contributed a lot to team's play. Would be nice for Mitro to get a goal or two in the coming games to get his confidence up, he just isn't making the right decisions shot wise and is fluffing a few of them... Come on son!

Sissoko, Wijnaldum, Shelvey, Colo, Janmaat were all 9 out of 10s today. The balance with somebody with a bit of forward passing and vision made an unreal difference. Getting worried about mitro's misses, he made some shocking air shots today. if we could get remy on loan i would be well chuffed

I have been suitably impressed by Rob in the last three or four weeks. Liking him a lot at moment. Only downfall is that he doesn't like to play it out so much and prefers the long boot upfield. Could mix it up a bit?

Lte's get a third and then get saivet on to conserve the lead...

Exactly!

It's like having cabaye back, stroking balls around and so cool on the ball, even colback is looking good beside him. Wij, Sissoko and Perez playing outstanding! Janmaat needs a mention too, even colo is back to his old self...

He's only had two good games in about the last two years, albeit they have come of late, £8m is good business for him when you take into account his age and injury record. Jonjo and saivet in, Tiote out is allright for me. Just get rid of jack or anita and get another and I will be singing and dancing...

Read somewhere this morning that we are interested in Caicedo from Spain (Espanol), he is a very avergae player, seen him twice in the last year and wasn't particularly impressed. Very strong and puts himself about but not even one of the top ten in Spain... No thanks!

Hear Hear!!

ahem... Big Mike W???

Doesn't have the pace to become the above. Somebody quoted the Big Dunc "one in five" goal type average whilst looking good but flattering to deceive...

This X10

New backbone is needed. And the more I watch Dummet, the more I see the need for a left back as well CB DM CF

Austin, Shelvey & Matip. You could get that lot for less than 25 million quid, what a difference they would make to us (imagining Matip is good?)

I thought he looked great today considering he hasn't had a run of games. Imagine if we bought Shelvey and had them anchoring our midfield, they would rip the championship apart... oh well...

Sissoko bossed monreal all over the place today. yep, he's a moaning argie (?)

Desperately unlucky today, as well as some good keeping from Czech and they get the lucky scrambled goalmouth goal. sickening. Dummet stood out like a sore thumb today at his inability to do anything but pass the ball backwards, never once got up the wing to back up ayoze, offers zero going forward and is limited defensively. liked tiote in the middle, but Colback has to keep his position more, they kept occupying the same spaces when we were in possession. Janmaat was outstanding today. Rest were decent and right spirit. We need a goalscorer, Mitro looks good but just isn't putting the thing where it needs to go...

Imagine having bellerin instead of dummet.... droool
