Fucking hell like.

HOWAY THE LADS!

ditto Best one in ages, which obviously isn't saying much.

Krul 7 - Did well when called upon. Simpson 5.5 - Average display, poor at times, decent at others. S.Taylor 7 - Solid. Coloccini 7 - See above. R.Taylor 6 - Was targeted as the weaklink by Wigan, but dealt with it relatively well. Obertan 5 - Poor, got to the byline once to his credit and there was no one in the box. Tiote 6 - Didn't dominate the midfield as he normally does, but a decent performance. Cabaye 7.5 - Good defensively, deliveries from corners were well placed, nothing spectacular up until that utterly magnificent goal. Jonas 7 - Continues to look dangerous everytime he picks up the ball. Clearly full of confidence and wouldn't be surprised to see more goals from him soon. Ba 6 - A couple of half chances, but not much else, decent shift. Best 6 - Energetic performance till sacrificed for Ben Arfa, probably should have scored. Ben Arfa 6.5 - Better than last week, but had the same effect, more drive and industry in midfield. Good strike well saved by Al Habsi. Shola 5 - Nothing display really. Marveaux 6 - Looks a really good, technical footballer. Nice composed layoff for the goal.

Same as last week, more initiative and go forward when he is on the pitch.

Krul 6 - Some good saves, couldn't do much about either of their goals. Simpson 5 - Didn't look happy when he was subbed, but he can't complain too much. Beginning to look like the odd man out. S.Taylor 6.5 - Solid aside from the tackle that gave away the penalty. Coloccini 7.5 -Another assured display, should have scored. R.Taylor 6 - A threat with his free-kicks, that should keep him in the side and Simpson dropped for Santon. Obertan 5.5 - Full of running, little end product, passing was poor again. Tiote 7.5 - He was everywhere, covers when any of the defenders are out of position, terrific battling display and midfield and possibly could have scored. Cabaye 7 - Was a bit sloppy in the 1st half but played some good balls and put in a good defensive effort in the 2nd half. Jonas 8 - Top display, really troubled Walker down their right flank and pitched in with a great assist for Ba's goal. Best 6.5 - Hold up play and movement really helps us in attacking sense despite his lack of goals in recent games. Ba 7 - Took his goal well, can't ask for much more, can see him getting 15-20 goals with good service. Ben Arfa 6 - Thought he gave us some drive going forward, tried to do to much at times but will have more an impact with increased game time. Shola 7 - Hold up play was good, and what a brilliant finish. When Shola is at his best he can really cause defenders problems. Santon - Nice little cameo, really want to see him get a full 90.

Youtube Newcastle 3 Barcelona 2 then think about what you just said.

Thought he did alright to be honest. We certainly looked a lot more positive going forward with him on the pitch. Gave us a bit of extra drive.

Shola I could just about cope with, if he brings on Lovenkrands I'll probably have an aneurysm.

Agree with the consensus that we need HBA and Marveaux on. We've built pressure but have never looked like unlocking Tottenham. Definitely a penalty and a needless one at that, Adebayor was going away from goal, Saylor should have just stayed strong and prevented him from getting goal side.

Top goal that, Sunderland will only be out of the bottom 3 on GD.

Meh.

3 in a row Or NETD as it's commonly known in the North East of England. Can you just make a sentence to help me understand what you're saying please ? Sunderland have finished above the mighty, world class Newcastle for the last 3 year in a row. Commonly known as North East Top Dogs (NETD) in the North East of England. Please feel free to comment on this. Ta. :lol:

Fucking love Balotelli

Wilkins

Just for a little positivity. mattspiro @mattspiro Had a chat with Cabaye after France game. Doesnt seem to worry about ankle injury. Cant stop saying positive things about Newcastle!

Beckham to meet with PSG officials this week apparently.

PSG top after 2-0 win over Lyon.

5 more points this month and we're halfway to safety only 3 months into the season.

Great set of epic moments there in that montage, aside from Ronnie fucking Radford of course.

The freshers clearly snapped up all those free tickets then.

dont be daft man, they put them on last to keep their millions of fans and lovers of pure classy football watching all the way through the programme. it's purely for viewing figures.

On last on MOTD, the editor is clearly a Mag.
