Wenger always struggles against these sort of teams, we all knew this kind of result was a distinct possibility, in fact there was concern it could have been worse. They aren't "in form" just very difficult to break down and very direct. I'm happy if they think they're guaranteed safety, let them get cocky.

Crack on imo, I don't agree with half of what he says buy I won't bite, just like I won't with others who can get on their high horse about stuff on here. Besides which it'd be boring as hell if we all agreed on everything.

Hopefully by the end of the season NUFC will put a smile on your face man. I'm hoping by then everything will fall back in place, cheers

Stifler man, you're my idol, having a really shitty time of it right now but you always manage to cheer me up never change man!

We're the form team now, Norwich picked up some form and have now lost it whereas Sunderland are just grinding out draws and the odd goal win/loss. We will pick up the most points out of the three but with games in hand and our late surge it may be too little too late. It really is a toss of the coin right now but nothing is certain either way. I feel 100% more confident than I did 2 weeks ago but until next week don't have confidence of us staying up. This is a massive week for us before we even play Palace.

Tomorrow will be a huge indicator of our chances, Sunderland go down with a whimper tomorrow and I can see us picking up enough steam to climb out of this. Next week is huge also!

Benitez the come back king, get in you mofos!!!!!!

Great start, didn't even have time to load up the BBC sport page at work.

Grilling people? I don't feel this got the appreciation it deserved.

I don't want to imagine RTGs take on this matter She knew what she was doing marra

Was vehemently against him signing and was much more excited about Shelvey, boy was I wrong, turning out to be just the kind of character we need right now. Glad he proved me wrong like.

I have a few Liverpool supporting mates and they're all really excited about this link. I don't think I could cope with HBA going to Liverpool, it would be like having to watch that girl you still loved getting in to one of your mates every week. Depressing!

Think that's more to do with playing 2 DM's than Darlow coming in. That's what I meant, it'll help his confidence that he has a better line of defence in front of him rather than the Taylor and Colo collinder effect.

First name on the team sheet at the moment for me.

Turned back the years tonight, outstanding performance.

He does make me nervous, he's done alright since coming in but I think it'll help his confidence we seem to have shored up the defence somewhat since he's come in.

We've never beaten Swansea in the premier league at home, Man City have won the last 13 games against us in the league, these are the records we have to beat to stay in the league, Rafa has got this. Another battling draw, I'm calling it.

Liverpool game is pivotal, a point or even a narrow loss could set us up for the last 3, it's not entirely in our hands but if we keep this form up we can take it to the end.

I think Wij needs to spend a bit more time on the bench, he's been far too comfortable being picked every week to amble around the pitch. Wasn't missed today, maybe that will give him a kick up the arse for the last couple of games.

Can't believe I've been watching the same team as has been playing all season, Rafa took his time but his drills are working. It got to a point where I was actually witnessing 1 touch passing, by Newcastle, against Man City. Defence were immense all game, Lascelle where have you been hiding? And Tiote looks like the player we originally bought! The only hope is that we can keep this intensity, work rate and determination up for the rest of the season, if we're gonna hit form, this is the time. Liverpool will be the hardest game of the lot, if we can avoid defeat in that we have an awesome chance.

Different class today, what could Rafa have done with more games??

More like mine in Blackpool

I hate Colback but ffs Sterling just fell over man, bent as duck these officials.

Ayoze goosed, get him off!

Is he clinically blind or just really pissed?
