Ash's post: Thanks Sifu. Looks like he isn't ready yet. But where did he play yesterday ? Off the striker role ?

Yeah we had some of our best players out, im just trying to figure out what was up with Pardew pre game. Is Williamson still injured? Aye.

Errr....

Barton scored one against Villa. Barton's goal against Villa wasn't a direct free kick. Great goal though.

Ash's post:

Those "highlights" from the BBC man. Terrible coverage.

Just seen the goal, what a lovely free kick.

I would still like to see Santon having an extended run at LB (I still have some faith in Simpson like....).

As long as it's not fucking Sports Direct on the strips!

Nice

Yep

Guthrie has always struck me as a player who has plenty of technique and a good range of passing but lacks pace and stamina. The stick he gets is often unfair imo. Some people still have his slip against West Brom in their heads and that has clouded a fair judgement imo. He's definitely a good squad player for us and judging from comments about his performance last night, all credit to him. Mind you, he should really move clubs if he wants to get anywhere in his career like.

Disappointing to hear this like.

Thanks for the summary Ash

Sounds like it was a crazy game. How did we play?

Would be delighted to get a draw from this.

Regarding Ben Arfa, could someone give me a summation on how he did tonight?

Sounds good.

So much cringe. Aye, too much cringe really.
