    Personally I prefer to see two strikers rather than one where ever possible. Best and Ba have both played very well so far, there is no reason to change. I think it would be daft to change a winning formation too much to fit in a bloke who, talented as he might be, has barely played for more than a year and before that was sat on the bench at Marseilles. Having said that I'm still hoping to see him get half an hour off the bench on Sunday, and its highly probable hes the most talented player at the club. As you said, a bit of a dilemna. This is, we arent playing a Wolves, Fulham or Blackburn this time. Spurs are a very decent team. While Ba and Best have been great, between them im not sure if there is enough quality to cause Spurs enough problems. Against the best teams, you need your best players. HBA can give us the extra bit of quality we need to break them down. Personally, I'd start HBA behind Ba altohugh im convinced he'll start Ba and Best.
  2. 20 minutes to go from qualifying from next years tournement, he loses the ball in the oppositions half and decides to try and launch him. What a petulant little brat. I was going to say this is one of the reasons England (cant even bring myself to say 'we') will never win anything, but thats not the reason, the reason is because they are shit.
  3. We have got a real tough set of fixtures on the way, so if we can get something out of this it would be huge going into Wigan. The 5 games after that are going to really test us, so fingers crossed 3 or 4 points out of the next two would be very handy.
  4. Not sure if we deserve to be where we are?? We are there because we have picked up the points. Every team will get some decisions throughout the season. but overall we have played and defended pretty well and we deserve to be there.

    Yeah. Energy, work rate etc. And for the goals ratio, it doesn't disturb you ? Not at all, we know Jonas doesnt offer much of a goal threat. Thats not what he is about.

    He'll get another 20-30 minutes i'd imagine.

    I dont think he'll ever play on the wing under AP I just think he'll find it easier to drop Obertan first before Best or Ba. Possibly, although i think Obertan is going to be a big part of his plans simply due to his pace. And if he continues his form from the last two games, then it would be tough to drop him. Personally, I think it will be Best who makes way, with Ba up top with HBA behind him. Great to have such options though.

  9. Didnt Roy Keane sign half of Ireland?
  10. Think they will win today, will keep bruce in for another few weeks anyways.
  11. I think Colocho has lost the plot since he was booted out of that group. He has went insane in the membrane.
  12. 1-2 win. Ive predicted the last two scored bang on, so seriously, everyone, put as much cash as you have available on this score line. Nailed on.
  13. Another stunning post by Colocho I see.
  14. Bang on. I wasnt his biggest fan, but he is gone now, we have moved on as has he. Like you say, lets remember him for being the Mackem Slayer that he was.
  15. You can always do better, in any walk of life, but pretty happy with the ways things are/have been going.
  16. He will score the winner on Saturday and he will be great again. Bruce will deserve more time to let his team gel and Brown and O'shea will have been clever signings. Then the cycle will repeat itself again and again and again and again...
  17. Has Queerside been on since last night?

    Probably not as much as your hated rivals finishing above you last 3 years in a row. Then that says everything we needed to know.
  19. Careful lad, posts like this won't go down well on here. Wes Brown would also comfortably walk into your team. As good as Brown has been for Sunderland, Taylor has been good for us. No way in hell he would walk in to our team just now. Brown is also older and more injury prone. Another myth peddled by Newcastle fans. On the subject of injury prone players, Taylor has missed virtually the last 2 seasons because of injuries has he not? 36 appearences for Wes Brown in the past two seasons (not including 2011-2012) 37 appearences for Stephen Taylor in the past two seasons (not including 2011-2012) You inbred c***. unlucky queerside.

    Wearside, how did it feel to be humped on your own ground again?
