They said the show was over.

no That's ridiculous.

Did BT Sport interview Pardew or any Newcastle players? There was an interview with Gerard and Rodgers but I didn't see any newcastle interview.

Floated set piece into the box, Williamson flicks on, Dummett finished. I love it when a plan comes together.

From what I saw Tiote played him onside.

WHile it was silly, Tiote being deeper than the rest of the back line due to sitting on his arse after giving the ball away stupidly is what really put us under pressure.

Only for violent conduct.

The first few times I heard the commentors same his name they were calling him Dayo-low-Fayo

You're confident Steven Taylor can handle Suarez and Sturridge? I'm happy to admit I rate Mapou higher than Taylor and Williamson, not sure that should be such an issue. It's not. It's just Colo and Taylor are a proven decent partnership and MYM was absolutely raped by DS last time round. Colo was raped by Suarez last time he played them. We should go Williamson & Taylor.

Premier League rules state that pitches have to be 105m x 68m unless it's impossible to meet those requirements.

I thought the premier league changed the rules so all pitches had to be the same size?

Look how defensive we've gone. There was no one supporting Cisse within 30 yards.

Went and sat down on the bench. Would have though if he was injured he would have gone for treatment.

Jonas for Remy

It's good to see Tiote just playing it simple. If he sticks to that he can be useful.

Him, Cabaye, Sissoko and Debuchy all are. Has Ben Arfa fell out with the national management again or just overlooked? What you mean? Just not sure if he's played under Deschamps or not, remember had a bust up with Blanc after Euro's and had a disciplinary meeting and can't remember him being back in since. Just wondering if there is still a grudge from that or their past history is stopping him from being selected. Deschamps was manager of Marseilles when he joined us.

Yeah, I thought he was ok, in the second half anyway. Was also far from the worst defender in our team in the first half.

What in the hell is this rubbish? Hes not been a direct threat on the left himself. He's scored two goals in one start from the left.

Might have been posted but the official site says it's Gouffran right, Ben Arfa left with Remy down the middle.

I'd agree with this, but not 6-8 weeks. If Debuchy doesn't make a marked improvement in the next 2-3 matches, he needs to sit for youth. I also don't understand the Santon criticisms at all. He had a poor second half of last season but was very useful in 2012 and has looked very solid and athletic thus far this season. As someone mentioned, he's the same age as Dummett and has made a big contribution to the team since his arrival here. I think that Santon is comfortably our best fullback, I just think there could be a much higher ceiling in his ability if he can learn to play right back as he just does not have a left foot (though he seems to be trying a bit more this season).

Fair enough, maybe i'm being too knee jerk, but there certainly has to be a point where Debuchy loses his place if his performance level does not improve and Santon at right back might be a risk but one worth taking in my opinion (and the only option if Debuchy does lose his place). I'd also drop Cisse for Gouffran while i'm at it. Cisse has been the clear weak point in the team so far.

I wouldn't, the same was said about defenders last season and more often than not somebody would come in and people wanted them out next game. Dummett looks good but he's got a lot to learn before he should be willingly thrown in against Premiership teams. For me, Debuchy has been pretty consistently poor this season, including last night. I am not writing him off altogether but when you have a player clearly not performing he needs to be dropped. That alongside the fact that Santon's lack of a left foot is really frustrating me and I think affecting our attacks and the fact the Dummett has played well the 3 times he's been on the pitch means that I would take the chance. We can't just stick with Debuchy while he's playing poorly just because the other option isn't experienced. And Dummett may have things to learn but he's shown a maturity and well roundedness to his game when i've seen him and the only way this'll develop is by getting some games.

I'd personally drop Debuchy now. Santon at right-back and Dummett at left-back.

Who is playing centre forward now?

What a little pass by Gouffran though.
