Les Reed, but Carver is pushing him bloody close.

Think this is a pretty fair assessment. Imagine we'll at least offer him a deal at his current wage so if anyone wants to sign him it'll go to a tribunal. Although saying that if we do offer him a deal he'd be a bloody idiot to turn it down given his career trajectory on current form will see him at Gateshead before too long.

Quite funny watching our fans get bent out of shape and adding meanings to something like this. The negativity around this club now really is quite obvious, right from the owner down to the casual fan. Not saying it isn't necessarily warranted, just bordering on the ridiculous.

Plays CM, but has occasionally been turning out at right-back for the U21s. Nice to see we're coaching his main position out of him.

Is certainly a better CB than Williamson too.

To be honest I always thought he was bang average, but he really has to be one of the biggest wastes of a shirt. Just seems to play with a black hole of shit around him, everyone in a Newcastle shirt who passes or ever gets near to him does something wank. Awful awful player. So many need to be shipped out and he'd be the first on my list. Whether he's been badly coached or what, just absolutely hate him at the club.

I wish our fans would just shut up. Bollocks to singing or cheering this lot. Just go home ffs.

I've always had a soft spot for some of our 'cult' shocking strikers like Maric, Andersson and Luque. Not this clown. It's like chain letters with him. Change L to an N to make c.u.n.t. Awful. Absolutely bloody awful.

None of our players look even remotely bothered. Playing for a manager without a clue who'll be binned off in a couple of months. This club is clueless from top to bottom. Absolutely scandalous. Should be investigated by trading standards selling tickets for Newcastle games as professional football.

Gouffran centre-mid. I mean most of our players are shit so you'd expect to not play that well most games, but anyone who picks the starting XI is just taking the piss. Fucking hopeless.

Was watching him against Napoli on Sunday, looks like his confidence is still shot. His positioning was never his strength but always seems to be either drifting out of the defensive line or unsure whether to push on or sit back. Still thought he was a decent enough full back considering the dross we've had play there over the years.

Have we ever had a season of this many bad/boring as feck matches? Couldn't give a fuck when they scored in the end. Just so utterly utterly pointless watching this every week.

End of his Toon career right then the poor bastard.

Our (fit) wingers are god awful. So so bad.

Aye, certainly doesn't look like that praise Carver has given him in the press has translated into confidence. Oh, wait. Aye, 100% agree,

Couldn't give a fuck about that spit, the lot of 'em should be banned for the absolute dogshit football on display so far.

Looks nervous as hell tonight.

Wonder if it has stabilisers. It does, he calls them Coloccini and Krul. Top work.

Lost his man for the second, Colo had to come across to cover him which left Haidara with two men to deal with. Third goal, why the hell he's giving Silva so much space I'll never know. Just the amount of times he switches off per game baffles me. Saying that he's only been equally shit as quite a few others.

Gives away a pen, loses his runner for the second and nowhere near Silva when he plays an amazing ball to Dzeko. Turboshit today. Abeid please.

Given the squad we currently have there's no reason to think why he shouldn't be considered amongst the mix to start. In Football Manager terms he's 'Squad Rotation'. Just a shame our squad is currently quite weak.

Was at the Palace game, don't think there wasn't anything too harsh. Unless Charnley thinks being called "Pardew in disguise" is an insult?

Was it ever explained why he didn't make the squad for the Palace game?

Was just garbage. Kind of forgot to celebrate our goal as I was so shocked there had been an effort on goal.

Says a lot when that was probably my highlight of the game.
