Yeah fuck him he's shit. Sell please.

Worried about their set pieces. Footballing wise we should piss this. Ironic that we once took west ham apart with Nolan and Carroll.

This season he has looked way off the pace. The glimpses of last season encouraged me more. Needs time and games, not sure he will get it.

Needs the confidence boost.I thought he looked better against Liverpool. Onwards and upwards!

Further? They still havent managed Milan.

I heard it and was going to post something similar. Gabbiadini in denial.

Was a guess like.

If shola doesn't make it, then Cisse will move into the middle with sammy coming in.

Team: Krul Simpson Colo Williamson Ferguson Anita Bigirimana Tiote Obertan Ameobi Cisse

Sadly Suarez got the better of Coloccini and I think Colo reacted. Its not the first time, remember Bolton? It was a red too, I'd be fumin had it been the other way round and Suarez had not been sent off. Coloccini a beautiful man but he had a bad day at the office.

On another note, Gerrard went missing for them yesterday. Its all downhill for him now.

Suarez actually really impressed me yesterday, as a footballer. Not many people get the better of Coloccini TBF. As a person, complete cunt.

Team?

Pretty much spot on IMO.

He's a valuable player in our squad, vital at times but there is a time and a place.

I'd go with that too but Pardew won't.

Its far more simple than all that IMO. He needs better attacking players playing with him. Firstly, better players will read his game. Secondly, the opposition won't be able to double up on him.

Time for some decisive action from Pards. He needs to make some big decisions and stick with them. Formation? Centre back? Strikers? I'd go for; Krul Simpson Taylor Colo Santon Perch Jonas Hba Cabaye Sammy Ba Front 4 should be good enough to carve out some good opportunities. Obviously Cisse for Ba if he's injured.

1-3 west brom win. Could be a real horrible day IMO.

He won't sustain his youthfulpace. There was a time when Shola was quicker and had the same unusual style,it won't last in my opinion. He certainly won't remain a winger in the long term. Eventually someone will see him centrally. The way someone starts isn't always the way they turn out.

Could do with a bit of magic on sunday.

I think he could turn out to be a target man type. At some point he's going to put the beef on, when that happens his game will slow. Would love to see him become a real powerhouse goal scorer.

Tiote was terrible. You simply can't afford to gift the opposition the ball in our third of the pitch, had we been playing a premiership side we would have got punished. Harper is well past it. Overall I was impressed by the lads coming though. Ferguson and Sammy show far more promise than Vuckic. A comfortableish 1-0 by the second string in Europe is nothing to be sniffed at.

Haven't read any of this thread, so here mine; Harper 6 worries me with kicking Santon 7 was ok Perch 7 very assured Taylor 7 was ok Ferguson 8 great crossing Obertan 6.5 same old but good finish Tiote 4 gave the ball away at least 5 times Anita 4 didn't impose himself Bigirimana 6 was the best of the three Sammy 8 mom, great display Cisse 6 needs that goal Shola 6 put himself about Colo 6 usual self, great clearance Cabaye -

Can't believe that we've taught the brugge fans to sing 'we hate sunderland'.
