That 1 shot on target thing was bollocks - Best goal and Jonas when Paddy was awol both on target

Like anybody would dare do that to Tiote

Bloke was outed as a fake last window.E Bloke was outed as a fake last window. Works or worked for itv in the north east, a modern day Roger Thames if you like. Used to play football with him, his nickname was Wan.

Monzon and Gignac for me. Purely as they form part of my PES Newcastle team

signed a 5 yr deal in the summer didn't he?

Pretty similar tbh, would push HBA and an-other (maybe Vuckic but he needs to grow into a first team player) ahead of Cabaye so its a 4-2-1-2-1 formation. Would need the 2 behind BA to be willing to interchange sides, pull wide when needed, support the midfield when under pressure and provide a link with BA so pretty demanding positions. We reallly need to replace Simpson and play Santon, full backs are the only positions preventing us going witha variation of 4-3-3 now imo

So what happens in the games played on the 1st? Seems a bit of an unfair advantage if the cut off is the 31st Dec

Rooney's was a shinner man, if Beckfords was lucky so was Rooney's.

Rooney will win despite being one of the worst on the list. and no Tiote!

They'll be spending as little time as possible in Liverpool, well I would anyway

This. Not a wingers job to be mr consistent, create 2-3 chances a game and job done

Dunno, quite nice to have a class striker without the obsession of the number 9 for a little while

Thought that at first, but on a bad stream and not enough of a reaction really for it to have been the case

When I lived there I always thought it was the biggest little village in the world. They'll back their own to the hilt (well once they've finished robbing them on match days), but heaven forbid someone from outside the place mutters a single word against them.

3 match ban for every player who wore a t-shirt, spoken out in public or signed up to the statement.

Would love the whole Liverpool team to be charged with bringing the game into disripute and getting 3 match bans

One game I know, but it seems to me our best formation would have Tiote, Cabaye and Vuckic in the middle with Ben Arfa, another and Ba as a top 3. Shame we aint got the fullbacks to cope with that

Tiote won't be sold in Jan for one reason, his value will still go up over the next 12-18 months as long as he keeps playing as he has been. Carroll was different, he was never going to be worth more than £35m. Of course a bid of £35m would tempt/force the club to sell, but not for £20m.

Just a reminder that the game is on absolute radio for anyone outside the region.

This weekend Simpson would probably get a game for ManU

One hope with Tiote is that Ashley likes to maximise sales value. Carroll was never going to be worth more than £35m, Tiote's value will rise between now and the summer (and even summer 2013) if he keeps on at the same level of performance

What a name! I want Boudebouz

On absolute Radio for anyone outside the North East

Not cooking Delia's roast spuds at Christmas in protest for the music. Should be an automatic points deduction doing that

But imagine - by moving Tiote to CB, we could move Colo to midfield no problem. 2 birds, one stone type scenario!
