I guess you missed the first 70 odd minutes, did you lose your internet connection?

The sending off today turned the game, it had nothing to do with Pardew who should have brought Ranger on the minute they went down to 10 men. We were all over them for 10 minutes after that and Best and Lovenkrands did nothing and he did nothing to change it until late in the game, he was very lucky that it worked with so little time left.

Best is shit and probably even worse than Shola for not being able to understand how to stay onside, he took his goal well though and he's not scared to get in where it hurts.

Harper did come out to Tiote, I can't ever remember a goal being celebrated as much as that one, we went mad and my voice has gone.

Some of his passing was shocking at times and he set Arsenal on their way but he never let his head go down and was probably our most vocal player today. Like I said, some of his passing was shite yet he never hid once and just got on with it and played a massive part in our result and not just because of the two goals.

He ran from where he scored to the corner of the East Stand/Leazes.

Tiote is an amazing player, I'd love to know how much ground he covered today. He was probably the only players out of the 20 outfield players who played well for the full match and that goal was something else. He was almost out on his feet by the end and it's not a surprise because of the work he put into it. If any of our players deserved that point, it was him.

I've just got out of a lift up to level 7, even the lift thinks were in trouble, it said "going down."

You remind me.

Yes, let's focus on our toothless forwards and not worry about what might happen.

Pardew is a liar, he'll come over the way that he wants to come over.

Probably because our shit manager is already talking about future player sales.

Pardew is getting in early to try to make player sales less of a shock to try and take pressure off for when the players are sold.

We've just brought in £35 million, why should he have to put pressure on his mate by talking to the press?

Pardew is only doing what his mates want him to do, if they tell him to sell than that's what will happen, I can't stand having him at our club.

He's an absolute head case, I hope that he does well because we need a spark and if he can produce his form of 18 months ago then we'll do OK out of the loan.

I did see him a few times in European games, that is about it, probably 2 or 3 times at most.

I didn't see much of Waddle when he played in France so can only comment on how they both played here.

I thought that he did well when he played at left back and didn't hold us back as he got forward well. He was more than good enough for the Championship last season and he showed that when he played.

I don't like Pardew, having said that, his job has become much tougher this week as he's been handed a shit set of cards to play with. Selling your top scorer is bad enough, doing so without replacing him is like playing Russian roulette with our club.

Half a season at Coventry is hardly a great deal of experience, I still say starting Van Aanholt ahead of our own player was crazy. Not just because Kadar was ours but because he was good enough to start for us in the Championship and in need of more experience, experience that we gave to a player from another club.

If I had the choice between Ginola and Waddle then I'd go for Ginola.

Ginola was better than Robert, I'd say it goes Ginola, Robert, Zog then Ben Arfa who could easily be the best in 2 or 3 years time.

He'll play this season and he'll score goals which gains them points, he'll not do that for us and he'll have given them a lift just through signing for them while according to our manager our players are down in the dumps.

We were a club challenging Liverpool for league position until we sold them our top scorer an hour before the transfer deadline and in doing so strengthening them.
