That goal was depressing man. Evans.

Aye.

If we won the title anyone still criticising Pardew would be fucking mental.

Ben Arfa in for Tiote next game for me. Move Cabaye back into a deeper role and stick HBA in behind Remy and commence with glorious, powerful rape. Don't like the idea of taking Sissoko out of his RW position when he's playing so well there.

Think he's found his position, looks very good out wide where he can use his pace and power to good effect. He and Debuchy compliment each other extremely well too.

Pepper your Angus.

Well worked goal.

Good game this.

I'm not sure where he's going to play if we're going to stick with a 4-4-2, honestly. Sissoko is making the spot on the right his own, and Gouffran is chipping in with goals from the left. I'd be up for giving him a shot as a number ten, just off Remy, but I don't know if Pardew would go for it. I think he'll be used as a sub for the foreseeable future unless there are injuries.

And the fan goes wild!

What sort of Geordie ends up supporting them? Seriously, how does it come about?

Complete waste of space out there. Stands offside 90% of the time, and that's his most positive contribution. Dunno what happened to him.

Cisse man, just stands there offside.

Jesus Remy. Miles wide.

If half time was abolished Pardew would be a top manager. I've never seen anything like it, a lead at half time basically guarantees the second half will be awful.

I suppose he's bound to play well eventually...

Teamtalk time!

Messi-esque that. Somebody has to get forward and support him.

We've been excellent like, playing some lovely stuff.

Had to score there.

Said the same.

Yeah, I was blowed away by that.
