Good player for us , but not sure he good enough to play in a top four side week in week out..

would play him against Man U. keep Perez fresh for Everton game.

Apart from Cabella who they spent £10m on? yeah and that other bloke he sent away to hull Or even the bloke who's at Guingamp Cabella looks more out of his depth than Gouffran, the other two are not at the club , so hard to see how they could have played. should we allowed both of them to leave on loan ?

Shows you how unbalanced the squad is when he has to play put wide each week. The sad thing is we really do not have anyone else at the moment who can play there. ..

good game today. hope he can continue playing well.

Cannot do any worse than the current lot. Just cannot see him coming back, why would anyone want to leave Roma for this current shower. I am sure he will think he has moved onwards and upwards with his move to Roma. Only thing I cannot see Ashley selling at a loss if his form continues, so hopefully we will get a good fee for him.

I agree, one of the faults we always seem to have had at this club, we never been able to develop enough players from the youth/reserve teams.

Great cross for the goal. At least he looks to be positive when he comes on. It may not always work, but for me a winger first job is to be positive take people on put in crosses, more than just track back and help your full back.

I think it more of a case of he has no idea who to turn to if Pardew was sacked.

I just can't see it. Even if he has his money back, nobody in their right mind would walk away from a business making about £40m a year and also providing massive amounts of free advertising for another venture. World wide Advertising, N.U.F.C is worth a lot more to sports direct than most people think.

Sacking pardew is the easy bit. Getting someone better who will work under Ashley may not be as easy as people hope it will be.

Lost to another poor goal. Until we get defenders in who can defend.we will continue to struggle no matter who we have as a manager.

I seriously doubt Anita will play at right back against Stoke if Janmaat isn't fit. Anita is tiny and Stoke's team are probably the tallest on average in the league. More likely it would be Dummett at right back and Haidara at left back. Anita was allegedly wingback there last season and spent much of the first half tortured. wouldnt put it past Pardew Or S. Taylor at right back

Bruce is about the best we could hope for, Ashley does not pay enough for anyone decent. Plus would anyone decent really want to work under Ashley?

It Just like souness all over again., Shepherd at least knew there is no way he was going to turn it around and win the fans over. Lets hope the penny drops for Ashley,

Even if they players are not good enough, the team should a least look organized and not a shambles...

Unreal how he never got a real run in the team at centre half.. when we see the same clowns week in week out unable to even look like their can keep a clean sheet..

If you look at the way Ashley runs the club. Buy cheap players sell on at a profit. To be successful at this you need a manager/ coach who can improve players. If you forget your hate for Pardew, how many players have improved under this man? how many youngest have made the break though to the first team squad ? Compare that to the amount of players under him that have not improved or went backwards. The man needs to go, he has had enough time and enough players .. we are no better now than when he took over , which seems a life time ago.

Very good post. spot on...

a bit slightly off topic but wasn;t there an investigation into the signings of Boumsong and Faye, did anything ever come of it? Yes we well conned into believing they were footballers

this

Always looking for excuses, always looking at what players cannot do, more than what they can do. Very much a poor mans Graeme Souness for me

like the look of this lad. no doubt be sold next summer.

Looks an improvement on Shola.
