Berbatov's a great player. Fantastic to see him doing well, even if he does play for the scum.

I was chuffed when we signed Routledge but he's exceeded my expectations up to this point. He was fantastic for us last season and ran the show against Wolves a few weeks back. It's good to hear he's played well today and he's getting a bit of recognition. Very good player who's getting better and better.

Sad bastards, to be fair.

Barton's the fucking boss.

I think people are overrating him a tad, but he's solid enough, and consistent with his headers. But Stick him alongside a Fitz Hall, and we all saw what happened.

Again with Jonas off the front man? What the hell is with some peope, seriously?

Brilliant result! Thanks for all the updates, followed the entire thing right here.

Someone else.

As could Shearer, or any striker.

Jonas in Nolan's place? God almighty.

Absolute nonsense. Smith was invisible against Wolves but for a few typically misplaced passes. He doesn't deserve to be anywhere near the team.

Routledge offers twice what Jonas does going forward.

No sure how you can say with certainly that Hughton is learning from his mistakes. He essentially picked a player on saturday that clearly held us back in The Championship.

Aye, I loved Robert's against Everton too.

Was it bollocks his best performance in a toon shirt. Home to Brum and Chelsea twice in consecutive seasons stick out. A fantastic ball to Bernard at the Gallowgate rounding off a magnificent game in particular.

Can't comment on Blackpool, saw 20 mins via a terrible stream in a joke of an internet cafe.

I remember his fantastic cross for Bellamy which made it 5-1.

Against Villa, perhaps. Against Wolves and Man U, no.

5-1 with 3 late goals.

Another toptoon classic there.

Speed's short passing game was atrocious? What a load of nonsense.

Malandro doing his best to look ridiculous, as usual.

Never said it was 'bad' as such. But we can all agree that Shearer was rarely effective unless the players behind him were doing their bit. Best striker in the league by a mile for a good few years, don't get me wrong.

Have you ever considered that those Chelsea players look so good because of Drogba? Look at his assists.
