Gosling is an entirely pointless specimen, so yes. I can't help but feel that Sammy is no better than Obertan. All fart etc.

Dat nixon

I love Rich.

The banner :lol:

Oh dear god what happened tonight.

Wigan are a good outfit when they turn it on. Villa are too. We're consistently terrible. It's perfectly reasonable to expect them to out-point us in the last three games. Just a matter of how much.

Oh good.

Not away from home we didn't True. Hadn't schooled Sissoko into Pardewism. Also, they outplayed us for a big part of that game. And true

Whoscored.com do them. http://www.whoscored.com/Matches/615283/MatchReport/England-Premier-League-2012-2013-Newcastle-United-Liverpool Go on the match report tab and head down to Positional Report, there's a pitch graphic. Select player positions and voila. What a f*cking mess that is we won the tackles

we put 4 past Southampton to be fair

Looks like a converted tram

Keegan, man miss the crazy bastard.

Still don't think it would work and thought so for a while especially under Pardew's fantastic coaching they would just get in each others way. In theory though, you have a tackler and a ball player. It should work. It won't work under Pardew but that's where his future lies with us, imo.

How often have Anita and Tiote played together? On paper that should work quite well. Better than Tiote - Perch at least, as Anita can actually use a football.

yes you will I say the same every week

I'd say Gouffran and Ben Arfa wide is almost a necessity. We need outlets further up the park otherwise it'll just keep coming straight back to us. Watched Jonas chase back a few times, which is fair enough, win the ball, turn round and chip it towards the half-way line with no-one there. This needs to stop. Our forwards need to try and stay forward. Let our countless defensive midfielders do the dirty work.

The key is to avoid players weaknesses. Pardew seems to try and exploit them for some strange reason. Tiote is top notch at breaking play up, no doubt, and he's hard as nails. Don't be asking him to do anything technical though, it's just stupid. Playing him and Perch in the middle was so pathetic that Cabaye was trying to link defense to defensive midfield - or 'the DDM' as I have coined. edit: to be fair though, when the only outlets are a wildly out of position Sissoko or... Jonas, well, there's not much you can do.

I got a 99p bottle of sparkling perry from lidl. Probably closer to that.

this.

no i havent

It's so that, when you go on the home page, you see 'Alan Pardew gone...'. It's a horrible nasty trick. We only have a few Pardew threads. You should look at RTG...

Wigan to spontaneously enter administration.

That's why I enjoy watching Gouffran. He plays his own game. Precisely why he's been getting hauled off and dropped, probably.

Saturday looked like a mutiny, did you notice the team huddle before kick off? Done it for West Brom too.
