Unbelievable

3 men offside, well done linesman

Fuck off world!

Offside..

Fuck sake..

Hart a bit lucky there..

Fuck off Tiote, just fuck off now..

We're looking excellent.. See, I told you Ben Arfa is overrated..

Damn, floated ball to Willo nearly worked..

Good corner Anita

Corner, come on!!!

Fantastic bit of control from Demba was it?

Damn, good try Cisse.

FOUR defensive midfielders? Can't wait!

3 players not even involved and 2 with a 50% chance of playing

He's a headcase, and not a very good one to boot. No thanks.

Isn't that essentially what we told Ba in the second half of last season though..? Aye, with one key difference in the outcome..... That's not the point is it? Also, isn't it a bit early to claim Cisse out wide in a front 3 doesn't work and Ba does? It's been two matches we've tried Cisse out wide, and one of those we won and played well overall, including Cisse. Either way, sacrificing an in form striker for a completely out of form one sounds like madness to me, so for the time being it's Ba's place to lose and Cisse out wide or not in the first team at all, which might be an even better option as we arguably have better options out wide.

Isn't that essentially what we told Ba in the second half of last season though..? Also, his confidence was shot long before he was tried on the wings, which has only happened in the last two games and worked quite well in the first of those.

To think they said the whole point of the unprecedented 8 year deal was to prevent there being any discussion about the manager in case we might get in a slump somewhere down the line. Happened a lot sooner than expected. Not just Pardew, but also Mike, Dekka and the players have set themselves a massive challenge with this shite start to the season. Looking at the fixture list, it may well get a lot worse before it gets better too..

Hope he changes his nationality, France doesn't deserve him.

FT: didn't play too badly, showed plenty of fight. Some poor defending from Colo and Williamson cost us, and the baffling substitutions certainly didn't help. That's all.

Colo

Another decent ball in from Jonas. How come there is no movement with 3 strikers on the pitch FFS

Decent ball in from Jonas.
