I really hope this is the season when Spurs beat Arsenal in the CL race.

So we might see him for the last month of the season. Tragic.

If hiding means not charging around like a brainless arsehole I'm all for it.

Starting to dislike LvG with a bit of a passion. £100m spent and poor football with poor results.

Good.

If Tiote plays the ball to Mike Williamson in anticipation that something intelligent is coming back, he's a bigger fucking idiot than I thought. Shithouse midfielder. Thankfully we've got much better than him now and a real manager will ship him back to a Mickey Mouse league.

He'll be bluffing to encourage Sherwood to accept terms. Such a fucking idiot.

Randy Andy O'.

Abeid should be bollocked if he ignored orders but not publically like that. Especially not when a fair few of the senior players were tripe yesterday, and have been for most of the season.

Carver will be too, though. He's such a thick bastard he's probably telling the players he is.

Since when do defences of the likes of Mike Ashley, Alan Pardew and Gabriel Obertan warrant more than one-sentence responses?

Debating who is more shit is pointless - lets call it a tie Taylor lets himself down with moments of madness and poor judgement. Williamson is just playing 2 levels above where he belongs.

Bad idea, that. Carver was in the Black Bull in Wylam through the week. Apparently he still has a photo of Pardew in his wallet. Remy shall be disciplined.

The fans' reaction to him wasting that chance was brilliant, mind. Looked like 5,000 men all throwing punches at imaginary faces right in front of them.

He's incredibly shit, but it's nothing we haven't known for years.

It was a minor miracle he hadn't scored before then, though. He gets into the right areas and has a good shot on him with both feet. He's scored more PL goals than Anita and Tiote combined in that period alone.

Nobody thinks Colback's owt special. He's simply a decent player with decent set-pieces and goal threat. That sees him stroll into our CM.

Aye, and Tiote's being targeted by Sir Alex.

It such rubbish, like. Tiote and Anita can't protect the defence or support the attack. Neither of them should be at NUFC yet they're held on some sort of pedestal because Graham Carr rated them at one point.

The fact that he sneaks a goal here and there doesn't make up for the fact that he's a nothing player 95% of the time. You don't play him just because you hope he might get a goal at some point. You play him because we don't have anyone better to play the box-to-box role. At least not until de Jong returns and Sissoko can be moved back there.

Sammy's just crap. Nice lad but completely lacks the coordination for this level.

Made a cracking save in the 1st half. Your point being what? Sunday League keepers make cracking saves.

Christ. You could slag off Hitler on here and Ian would offer a defence. Give it up, man.

'Back to basics.' Pardew code for 'we're gonna lose 1-0 instead of 4-0'.

This is exactly it. He's basically a good footballer but I do think his strengths and weaknesses are all wrong for the PL.
