The players have no idea how they should be attacking. And with zero confidence in themselves and probably Pardew, they ain't gonna figure it out any time soon. His plan is to hoof the ball to Cisse??? That's how we'll compensate Demba's sale? f***ing awful excuse for football that. Unless we buy some target man who gets lucky, we're getting relegated under Pardew. The guy is a fraud and the team's weaknesses aren't simply tactical or individual errors. It's all a product of the false foundations he built his team on. We're playing some other sport because what I'm seeing can't be called football.

Out!

We've tapped him up!

There is a thread for the twitter nonsense though. yeah i dident realise, would be easier pointing it out like someone did, not being cocky? I apologise Anyway, somehow I can't see us spending 9-10 million on Remy / Aubameyang / other 'unproven' striker of similar calibre. It seems too much of a gamble for Ashley. Especially since we're playing badly and an eventual new striker will be under a fair amount of pressure to score on minimal service. If Rémy has indeed lost his way a bit maybe we should be wary of that. Unfortunately we're in a very dangerous situation and it could be that the player's experience and character are more important than say his technical skills and potential.

http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,76584.0.html it may be lies, stated in the start it could be. just letting know It may be.. More likely it's just the widely respected Footy Rumours' correspondents working tirelessly on Sunday night to bring us the latest transfer window inside knowledge.

I'd be delighted with a similar calibre of player as a wing forward option and on paper we should look more balanced on the pitch but the lack of height can be a problem. Our attacking set pieces are already diabolical of course, but without Demba we lose another good header in the defensive aspect, which will probably cost us.

A 'reserve' side is a must for this game. The 'first team' will undoubtedly crumble anyway, playing more youngsters would give Pardew an easy excuse.

Genuinely worried he might have second thoughts on joining such a struggling team Seriously, his contract, house, everything must be sorted before the Brighton game. I'm sure this will be an even more disappointing game to witness.

Very worrying.

Fairly satisfied so far. The players are putting a lot of effort but Everton are very likely to score again if we don't keep the ball better and generate some sort of a momentum. Hopefully we get lucky somehow.

fapfapfap!!

He won't snub Chelsea man.. it's just his agents trying to get as much as possible.

Debuch man It's unreal how much he will improve our attacking play straight away, doubling up Ben Arfa on the right. I'm sure he'll prove to be an improvement in defence too but that might take a little time as he adjusts to the more frantic nature of the games.. especially if he has to play next to Williamson. As for M'Vila, he seems to even surpass Tiote's decline.. who I'm very disappointed with btw. The staff haven't done a good job handling his mentality. His decisions on the pitch indicate that he has forgotten his role, not necessary on the pitch, but for the team. He must always be the reliable option for his team mates, not the most wild and unpredictable.

Has he really said that?? DIIIIIEEEEEEE YOU OLD FUCK!!! AAAAARGGHJHH

The media's (lack of) reaction to the old fuck's behavior is nothing short of scandalous! Any other manager would've been crucified for not showing respect to the officials. But not SIR ALEX.. nooo.. he can come on the field, have a two-minute tirade to the ref, postpone kickoff, then spent the entire half mouthing off the assistant.. and it's all perfectly okay - Like fuck does he deserve respect, fuck his titles and fuck the moronic pundits. Froggy can fuck off too

wanker

Proud of the team and the manager but it's extremely disappointing how the referees allowed Ferguson to continue with his antics. That helped them win the game. The old f***'s experience and success deserve respect but the rules must be equal for all. He delayed the second half, then spent its entirety moaning at the assistant. How is that not a sending off to the stands??

fuck man united

Hold on ladsssssss, come onnnnnn!

hahah fuck youuuu

They're murdering them

I think Demba will go this window. He seems very ambitious and in his eyes it's probably the right time to move. QPR's inevitable (and pointless) bid is likely to spur other bigger clubs' interest, so there will be offers this time. I like him a lot as a player and a leader. I've often disagreed with people saying he should play deeper, imo he's a bit limited in his overall play but he's a lethal poacher. If I had the choice I'd keep Ba instead of Cisse every time. His physique, determination and composure make him a better goalscorer. But still, I wouldn't offer him more than what Colo is on. Ba just doesn't offer that much to the team, while Colo's usual assurance improves the play of the whole team. I just hope his replacement / Cisse finds his feet quickly once Ba goes. Considering our attacking 'style', there's no chance that the goals will spread among the midfield so there will be a lot of expectation on our forwards to compensate the many goals that Ba scored for us.

Merry Christmas lads and lasses! I'll also take the opportunity to thank the admins/mods for maintaining this place friendly and pleasing to read

Vital 3 points. Well done to the team and the fans!
