Comments in here are bordering on mental. Has nobody been watching us this season? FU!

For £14m you could buy a couple of non-league teams and gamble for another rickie lambert/Jamie vardy

I'm really curious to see how he does if he does go into management long term. The only other manager I know that would be similar would be Sherwood? But he was batshit insane. Hopefully Nolan will be a bit more controlled

"Our Colo"

I'm pumped for this. Almost wanting to order a retro PL top with Shelvey 12 on the back too haha.

That 'fastest player' stat is a load of shite. It's always the players caught out of position who sprint back, like defenders or keepers who've gone up for a corner. Ball-with-feet fastest player is the important one.

I don't understand how anyone can think Colback can play left back after being totally out of his depth when moved there last match. He tried to dribble the ball with his belly while he crawled along like a baby. Jesus christ Anita has to be ahead of him just on the fact he has filled in at RB before and didn't attempt that baby crawl AFAIK We need a new LB, period. Wouldn't mind Enrique back tbh.

Shola? Captain Fantastic Kevin Nolan. Although an argument could be made to say that he was trying his damndest to help out further back in the pitch, he has the turning circle of an Easyjet 767 so it was probably better for him to just face towards goal up the pitch instead.

That is a bit ridiculous to say tbh. So you'd start Colback + Anita ahead of their midfielders? Is Perez better than Coutinho? Come on man, let's not get carried away after beating West Ham 2-1 at home. We've been absolutely dreadful this season and so have they yet they're about a million points ahead of us. I did say starting line up, so nah, I´d start Shelvey and Saivet ahead of their midfielders. Not much between Perez and Coutinho for me, but I prefer Perez as he seems to be more versatile and hard working. Bit mad tbh, Coutinho has established himself as one of the best attacking midfielders in the league to be honest. Perez still has an awful lot to learn.

Leave the EU and we can do this when we start making our own laws again.

I love these posts from you Ian. It's like you took the red pill and are now fully conscient of how things really are. 'I was once like you...'

The MSPaint squiggling by 'Tom' and the hand-drawn S ffs

Hank fckin Scorpio ! THAT'S WHERE I'VE SEEN HIM BEFORE!!

At work so can't.. but Downfall as Adolf

Woodgate made the position of central defender look so stupidly easy in a way that I've only seen players like Ronaldinho make playing as an attacker seem easy. He was that good.

Considering he's easily one of the best NUFC players in the PL era

I'd say there's only 1 better dribbler on the planet than Hatem. Wij is like Rob Lee on crack

I don't think anyone can underestimate the shape of this team with Mitrovic leading the line. Regardless of his goals, he's a part of the jigsaw that gets Wij, Sissoko and now Shelvey on the ball so much.

Depends on the forward.

Dutch Nolan, i.e. can also play football as well as score.

Would say Shelvey takes more risks than Cabaye on his first showing at least. Cabaye was quite safe.

Colback mis hitting a cross again.
