  1. That Thauvin tackle was nothing man Amazing how it keeps getting brought up. If anything, Sanchez's towards the end of the first half was worse.
  2. Howard Webb's just said that Coloccini was lucky not to be sent off for that tackle on Coquelin Genuinely cannot believe what I'm hearing.
  3. Savage now accusing us of 'not having a go'. The guy honestly wants lynched.
  4. Brilliant atmosphere mind. Arsenal supporters totally drowned out.
  5. Shame about Perez. Happy enough otherwise, quite a big call dropping Taylor after last week.
  6. I asked the same quetsion about Rudiger in the Bundesliga and was shot down for it. Difference is Rudiger is a kid where as Van Dijk has consistently failed to impress where it matters. There's only a couple of years between them between them like.
  7. As much as I disagree with the move for Stones, Chelsea could probably use another centre-back.
  8. This is it for me. The side that Carver put out against Leicester last season was, for my money, strong enough to beat what was a woefully out of form, bottom of the table side at the time. The defeat was more down to attitude and therefore the performance than personnel.

    Steven Taylor

    He's earned his place on Saturday's showing. Janmaat should be made to work for a start after that shambles the other week.
  10. Not saying it's necessary his best position but Gini's pretty well suited to the no. 10 role imo - eye for goal, good eye for a pass, links the play well. Can definitely understand why McClaren's been playing him there but would like to see him moved deeper long term.
  11. Two world class saves from Hernandez and Mata. Colo blocked three shots as well that were on target. How anyone can say Colo wasn't MOTM is beyond me. He saved it from being a spanking. If this was a potential Man Utd spanking then you have to worried for your title chances this season. I worry for Newcastle FC when a great performance is being stuck in your own box for 80 mins and having zero shots on target. We were only stuck in our own box for the last 15-20 minutes. Bar the first quarter of the first half, we matched you in terms of general play. That shots on target statistic also conveniently ignores Mitrovic hitting the bar and Thauvin being an inch away from Cisse's cross. Your lot were nowt special today and a draw was the right result.
  12. Difficult going up against Depay outside of your natural position. It's been a decent duel - Depay's roasted him a couple of times but Mbemba's also floored him with a couple of good challenges.
