Jonas over Marveaux? Madness.

Martins was far quicker off the ball but Bellamy was far quicker on it.

Really shows nothing of the sort, tbh.

How exactly would Carr go about scouting managers?

Who?

Erm...20 years ago? What the hell are we then?

Enough of this garbage please. He gets paid a fucking fortune to turn out for this club.

Marveaux off a lone striker, man. What an absolute shower of shite squad we have.

Has Stifler been on the extra fizzy fizzy pop again?

Think it's fair to say we've lost a lot of leadership since that game.

Who does he have to pass to?

Do we have any others? Depends on how you see Hatem.

Mick would still take him. Be our Giggs.

We've got nobody else really. Cabaye certainly didn't look fit enough to have started.

The football is dire mate, absolutely rotten. Last season we could say 'yeah but it's getting results, he's making us hard to beat and we'll push on from there'. The way we started this season was enough to tell me that there was never the intention to move on from there, he only knows keep it tight and nick one football. He's getting stick because of the football, when you consider the talent we've got in some areas, we're an absolutely awful team. I do think Pardew's getting a bit of easy ride of it in the media and from the stands, to be honest. I don't want him sacked yet but frankly the job he's doing this season would warrant it and then some if he hadn't done such a good job in his first 18 months here. That said, it's misleading to suggest the talent we have at our disposal should guarantee an on-field return in proportion to that talent. We've got absolutely nothing apart from Cisse from an attacking perspective and the midfielders we have are horribly unsuited to filling the void.

More to this story. Far more.

He's weak as water, like. Not a player for this league, but he'll have his moments.

Yeah, thanks for keeping hold of our 'big players' in the summer, Mike. Done us the world of good.

Still 5.

He's off.

There's that one out the window.

I don't think Taylor being fit and Colo staying constitutes a 'bit of luck' like.

What's the point of him staying out wide?

If we don't win I think that'll be it from me.

'One or two.'
