If Aguero gets banned it might be wildcard time for a lot of people. Too much money to have sat dormant for 3 game weeks. Only problem is I hate using it the week after Internationals, there's usually fucking carnage in the team selections.

Murphy absolutely bullied Klose in the East Anglian derby last Sunday. I still don't want him particularly though

He kept us ticking over, don't think you could say he was rotten. Compared to Colback he was like Gerrard in his prime. Gouffran was pretty good, which pains me to say but we were shite until he came on, coincidentally or not.

Sels looks ropey as fuck on those highlights

Gayle hits the post

Have Haidara's legs fallen off completely now?

There's not many players who had great fixtures for week 1 and 2, usually one or the other. Don't panic if you've had a shit week

Fortunately our bank balance hasn't

Nice logic. We've lost two and are meant to be "clear" favourites. What's your point? They lost to fucking Luton 3 days ago.

Desperate for a left back who can get forward. Team is pretty easy to play against, I think when Mitrovic is back we'll better and I wouldn't be surprised if Gayle plays from the left. We're quite one paced though, nobody can carry the ball in the way Jonas did last time we were down. We were very complacent today, as shown on their winner but also numerous passages of play where there were simple miscontrols or careless passes. Ritchie helped a lot but all the play went through him, another winger is a desperate need. Perez was crap when he came on and Diame was off the pace. Shelvey's passing mixes from sublime to ridiculous, I'd probably stick with him but he tries the hollywood ball far too often, but that's partly down to a lack of movement around him. You've got to get behind Rafa, if this doesn't work out, where do we go from here? That doesn't make him immune from criticism, I don't know how Anita has played 180 minutes but we've bought into Rafa and he will get it right. At some point.

Home to somebody who is absolutely shite please. Will be Mitrovic's first game of the season so we'll probably get Milwall away. He'll start a riot and get sent off. Then start rioting.

He was in the bar at Aintree a few nights before we got done at Southampton

Bearing in mind at Liverpool he played 2 and put Gerrard out on the right for a season, I'm not confident he'll change his ways after 1 game.

Seems obvious but we need a bigger striker for when Mitro is unavailable. If we're not going to buy I wonder if we can get Crouch on loan as a stop gap, or any other out of favour bean pole

Assuming Mbemba has been overlooked because Smith is 6 foot 8 or something

Gave his all for the clubbing

Bye Swansea

We just don't need him...unless someone is leaving, or they fancy him as a left back

According to this post: 3 hours before the game, 3 hours after the game, within the 'Tyne and Wear' region (i.e. as far south as Chester le Street), and one per season ticket. you can, but that was posted nearly ten years ago. CLS doesn't quite show up on the Network One map (http://www.networkonetickets.co.uk/zone-map) so it's very possible the boundaries have changed since then. When I lived in CLS (going back 10 years or so) it was valid from Barley Mow.

Would you not expect your main striker to get more than one goal in a game if they are dominating near enough every game? Strikers should love scoring goals More important to spread out the goals IMO, wins you more games. Fair enough. I just don't think he's a natural goalscorer.

That's absolute bollocks http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aleksandar-mitrovic/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/51152/wettbewerb/BE1/verein/58 14/15 season. Mick Lowes kept peddling it, probably should have quantified he was looking at one season

He never scored more than one in a game playing for the best team in Belgium, it strikes me that he just doesn't have "it" to be prolific. Still can be useful though, and of course time is on his side

Yes. Kaka's mate
