Purring at some of our stuff. I can't believe I'm watching us at times.

Not just us that hates Twattermole then.

Sunderland might as well not have a goalie, he didn't move for either.

Well I'm behind

Great goal balotelli

I knew we were at home but I still had to go on .com to double check I wasn't going mental

Stoke at SJP, sorry. Not from Newcastle

Looking to get Stoke tickets, any recommendations of the best seats in terms of atmosphere and position that will be available to me on general sale? I'm also wanting to stay in a hotel, any recommendations on decent places to stay? Planning on going out on the lash after. I did post in the tickets section but doesn't look like many people go in there. Cheers

He could also go to the very top if he was to keep that level of performance up. Wouldn't look out of place in any team.

Pardew will call him Hotdogbia, so he'll throw a strop and leave. HAHAHAHA! That's funny because you've taken what happened between Kinnear and N'Zogbia, and applied it to this situation. There are similarities because this guy has an odd surname too! HAHAHAHAHA! lol http://yeithuk.notlong.com/

Just before he scored, the slight feint where le looked like he was going to shoot then just shifted it before putting it away....you can't put into words the magic in stuff like that. Any football fan outside of wearside must look forward to watching this lad play. That shift is what caused the defender to lose his footing. He was anticipating the shot then had to try and extend further due to the shift, causing the slip. HBA made him slip, there was nothing fortunate for HBA as Redknapp tried to make out.

He's pretty fucking good ain't he.

Rizzle Kicks clearly knows his shit.

Glad to see Jonas back on form, he had a bit of an extended poor period recently after a good previous 12 months for us. Fantastic passing yesterday (apart from one rank cross field ball just before setting up HBA for the first goal). Love him when he's on his game.

Would be potentially deadly going forward, but I don't think Santon would be able to go forward as much as he'd want to.

Yeah that's what I thought. Some performances where we've been shite they've not been too critical, but then we turn in what we did yesterday and it was pretty disappointing reading.

Surprisingly negative spin on the performance from .com, no mention of Ben Arfa's performance either.

Harsh on Guthrie and particularly Cabaye who worked his arse off. He's so tenacious.

Really enjoyable game, pretty much everyone had a decent game (Williamson aside).

Jonas likes this formation. Decent shift from him again. HBA motm for me, closely followed by Cisse.

Watching that again, that's probably the best goal we've scored this season. People would be jizzing over that if it was man utd.

Jonas' passing has been good today, some really clever thru balls, particularly in the first 10 mins.

Devastating going forward. Solano, Robert, Bellamy and Dyer would have been proud of that counter for Ben Arfa's goal. First time in a while we've actually looked like we should be in The position we're in.

That looks like it should be found on a bar between the Guiness and Carling taps. was thinking the same.
