not sure the change of font matters tbh, just me? however i think the sports direct shit looks awful and has really made our stadium look tacky.

pardew needs to tell him to play the way he's facing and stop trying to turn his way out of trouble every single time. he needs to get back to basics for at least 90 mins because he's on a downward spiral atm

For me that's Ben Arfa's position but we should be setting the team up to play that way in anticipation of him coming back, for various reasons i think marveuax's the best option, he looks tidy in possession and with distribution and looks pretty mobile too.

could've been different if pardew had the balls to start him last night, i cant believe he'd have been worse than raylor defensively

I've not seen a single Sunderland fan hailing Gardner as 'world class'. Nobody does delusion quite like Newcastle supporters, I did try and warn you's early in this thread. try and warn us? you know fuck all about him man, you've seen as much as the majority of us. you tried to warn us about sessegnon as well. he may not have had a great game last night but only saylor did, the rest were average or diabolical. let me be clear about one thing, sunderland don't have a centre mid anywhere near the quality of cabaye, and i mean not even close.

i'd like to see something like this Krul Simpson Saylor Colo Santon Cabaye Tiote Ba Marveaux Jonas Best we really need a link between midfield and attack and the 2 in the centre of a 4-4-2 clearly isnt doing anything for tiote, he needs a bit of help sorting himself out or this run of bad form could turn into something more serious. pardew needs to tell him to play the way he's facing for a start.

although there was a credible argument for it, he shouldnt have stuck with taylor for QPR. if he hasnt learned his lesson he's got no eyes tbh. we're playing badly and yet we're picking up points, we'll lose this unless there's a drastic improvement from pardew in terms of team selection and tiote in terms of not giving it to the opposition ten times a game

another 90 minutes comes and goes without any attacking impetus or cohesion, not one move where we strung 3 passes together going forward, awful. i hope he learns his lesson and shola doesnt start again while Ba's available, same with Raylor, he got bummed all day. and what in the FUCK is going on with Tiote? still looks utterly appalling under pressure, he's reminding me of scott parker at his worst every time he gets the ball now, baffling. still though, stole a point, nice one.

mate, all the piss i will ever create has evaporated in advance due to this absolute shit hawk of a footballer.....with an new extended contract

Best great, Shola awful as usual, Raylor having an absolute mare. They WILL score from an attack down the right if something doesnt change

"that's the one you've gotta put in the bed"

you don't believe it?

spot on. Now that Raylor has confounded the doomsayers, they need to find a new point of attack. howay stu, raylor hasnt done anything unexpected. scored two important free kicks and looked average, apart from arsenal where he looked terrible. this is going too far now. it's pretty obvious why Simpson's getting stick, he's been the weak link recently. obvious loven's been worse but that's expected, i think Simpson's getting attention because his form seems to have changed, although personally i think there's more to it than meets the eye, enrique not being there to stop crosses coming in isnt helping him for a start.

6m? fucking hell - there must be some sort of clause in that involving a few more quid for a permanent next season

What difference will it make to you? he'll know what it looks like?

upson going to down like Schmichael's old starfish

he called someone a twat but no idea who can't wait to see his interview this time, domination

Torres

nah

that's ridiculously good

wow, finish

Bendtner with 2 or 3 bits of nice link up play so far btw

first of all that's definitely an intentional stamp by bardsley, there's absolutely no justification to bring your foot down like that unless he's trying to impersonate a horse trotting secondly, have a close look at the goal, mignolet puts his arms up to signal it's sailing wide.......just after it hits the post
