I would be annoyed but Cisse has been shite lately. Plus you know Shola will be up for the derby whereas the last one seemed to swallow Cisse up a bit. Great sub to have available.

got a ton of work to finish but all i can think about is the match.

Sorry Steve but this guy goes straight back into the side, 100% fit or not.

I agree that bit HTT said about big kids getting picked up by scouts when they are young. There was a lad i used to play with who was half a size at least bigger than everyone else and just used to score goals for fun. Got scouted by wolves but never got anywhere because as soon as the other lads caught up with him physically he got found out.

it on any uk channels Sewelly?

haha this is pretty funny.

He does have something unique.

^^^^^ Goes without saying.

Well that was a nice surpise. Don't agree with how they go about making their money but if it benefits newcastle i don't really care. St.James' Park is back baby!

Could this not have just gone in the xisco thread? and yeah im with you in saying No he is not the answer.

Yeah but I mean later on when it was Ben Arfa----Ba-----Cisse. Could easily have switched cisse and ben arfa as cisse made no impression on the right wing.

i dont see why after from 10 mins onwards ben arfa was stuck on the left? I don't think we were gettin battered purely because of Ben Arfa. He would have been far more effective second half on the right.

I would argue that Drogba would have scored more goals than Torres in the current chelsea team.

Come on, someone has just gone to alot of effort and make a fake article right......RIGHT?

I knew it. I knew we would get something worse than the sports direct arena. Wonka FFS!! Can't stand that word or that scum loan shark of a company in the first place. Suddenly I like Sports Direct.

is he the only co-commentator espn have? Don't think i have ever watched a premiership/europa league game on there where he isn't commentating.

isnt that yellow arsenal strip like 2 years old?

cisse and ba are passengers in games like this.

I think Obertan has been better of late and I have more time for him now as he is showing signs of improvement. I don't think he took on buttner too much as he is pretty rapid himself. It's all about confidence with Obertan, just look at that europa league game at home where he beat his man within the first few minutes and then knew he would have the beating of him all night and went on to have probably his best game for us so far.

Yeah looks nervous to take anyone on. From what I saw of him before he joined (limited) he seemed like a pacy winger who would take on the right back but maybe the injuries have taken away his pace?

There is no way he lived in leamington spa surely? would take him about 4 hours to get to newcastle on a bus

That will have just dented Cisse's confidence even more. Stupid decision. Plus points. Ben Arfa, Ba and Anita put to right back when he should have started.

Shocking cisse. Knew as soon as he stepped up he was guna miss. It was identical to the one he took in pre-season. Even if he was on form i doubt he is our best pen taker. Hope we don't rue that.

We should always use attack as a form of defence when we have a weapon like him on the team. Opponents should fear us. I felt first half it almost compounded the problem down our right by him not being there as Baines could just attack with no worry about defending.
