Thats what i was saying in the bar afterwards, you keep the ball well and play some decent stuff but you are totally toothless up front. Shame for you's really.

Best hasnt scored in 6 now I think? I wasnt particularly impressed with him yesterday. Although im fairly certain it will be the same team for Manchester, I actaully think these three games are the best time to bring him in. We are playing away so teams arent going to be sitting back, should be plently of room on the pitch. I can seeing him getting a start in the next 3, just not Citeh

I think i can remember one occasion when i thought he could have knocked it off to someone else and the rest of the time he retained the ball well. He won us two free kicks (maybe 3 actually?), his touch was better than it has been in previous cameos, and he worked as hard as ive seen him closing people down and chasing the ball. It was a promising 20 minutes.

Raw is definitley the right word. Give him the ball and ask him to run and he will do it all day long, but i was worried about him when we were in our own half. The next year or two we just need to ease him, 20 minutes here and there. Certainly potential.

Cabaye won't get a kick against that midfield. The one thats getting beat off QPR?? No, it isn't.

Think that is the worst game he has had for us in the last 12 months. Just seemed totally off the pace. Must have just been utterly fucked off Monday.

No they don't. If you don't have the ball you work so much harder which will make tired players even more tired. It always bugs me when players who can clearly keep the ball and indeed pass the ball about just revert to hoofing it aimlessley. Its actually lazy and sloppy. Again, tiredness or no tiredness. Tiredness may not excuse launching it but it does effect you when passing the ball.

I think its understandable that we were off the boil in the 2nd half considering the patched up midfield. First half we played some great stuff. Thought Colo was fantastic. Guthrie had a really good game. Someone earlier giving Ba a 6? Totally disagree, I thought he hald the ball up really well and fought for everything. Leon Best is becoming frustrating for me. He needs to learn the offside rule.

Done canny today when he came on as others have said. Most notable thing for me was his touch. The ball seemed to be getting away from him the last couple of cameos but it seemed a lot better today. Will become a lot more dangerous when he starts getting the ball on the edge of the area. He's getting there.

The most strange is when those people's avatars are among the best technicians in football history Agreed http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/avs/avatar_11377_1317765415.png

Everton write up -

So 1/3 of them then??

Ive (and others) have been trying to make this point for a week or two now. Let them bleat on if its keeps them happy.

I think he is being coy on purpose for some reason. I think he'll start.

Chance for Marv for get a run, we've all been wanting to see him to be fair.

3 posts. Nuff said.

What??? :lol: Am i losing the fucking plot? Racism should only face consequences if its face to face???

The best we have seen from him is when he has cut in from the left of been further left or right of the centre. I think Pards should think about changing his mind too and not restrict him to the 'number 10' role. I think he will find form much easier coming in on the left or right.

Listen man, we are 10 games into the season with a hard winter, ACN and the FA cup to come. We need a squad! Do you not think HBA, Marvaeux and Santon will all realise that they cant expect to walk straight into the team at the moment? You are acting as if our unbeaten run will last all season. It wont. In the near future we are going to have some tough games and he and the others will get their chance. Not to mention injuries! Its a long old season. Jesus, loaning him out. People are f***ed up. Totally missing the point that we are talking about Ben Arfas temperament and what HE may choose to do. I and I'm sure HTT would love him to be part of the squad for years to come. But my point being, he is going to get games sooner rather than later as I explained - Injuries, ACN, FA Cup, another 3/4 of a season to go. So why would choose to go anywhere else?
