Pilko

Do think he'd have been hooked had it not been for the Anita injury.

The progress in one competitive game has been evident, and the opening day is always a bit of a funny one. I'd have liked to see Aarons or Perez but I think the Anita injury probably put paid to that.

Tiote induced so much panic into that midfield. I've fucking hated the bloke for two or three years now, but it's plain to see the other players shit themselves whenever he's near the ball (or an opponent with the ball).

Tiote and Colback is such a garbage central midfield.

No point in Janmaat having such a storming game in general if he's going to get beaten that easily. Pathetic.

Need to slow down the tempo slightly now, the midfield is far too frenetic since Tiote came on.

You could even say that he's been http://s3media.247sports.com/Uploads/Assets/14/73/3073014.jpg

Whatever the result is today, this is certainly the first step towards depardewisation.

I've never seen us score a better counter attacking goal since Solano's at Leeds for 3-4

That was a vaguely entertaining half of football and that's the first time I've thought that about one of our home games in about three or four years.

Sissoko looks like our best bet today. The left side is fucking terrible.

Cisse currently looks just as isolated as the front bit of McClaren's barnet.

Mbemba not exactly covering himself in glory there like.

:lol: Wonder if he's made deputy shift supervisor yet?

Hope Obertan pulls a fetlock just to get the useless bastard out of the team as quickly as possible.

Thought the thread title was a wind up. Fucking stupid decision, based upon not wanting to spend any bunce and being lazy as fuck.

Eh, it says a loan deal... We released him right?

Or of course, the ten games comment may just be a polite way of explaining that Pardew/Carver's shit negative style isn't going to go away overnight.

Fabianski; Azpilicueta, Amavi, Coleman; Cabaye, Hazard ©, Chadli, Milner; Rooney, Benteke, M.Diouf Bench: McCarthy, Cresswell, Vertonghen, Routledge Wanted to pick Ayoze but not so sure whether he'll be starting games yet so might look at that as my first transfer if he is.

Anyone see Uriah Rennie on ITV1?

Koks scores three in two and that's not enough? What do they want, orgasms?

I agree, but I'd take five or six games of irritation if it meant that those lot were marginalised and sold because our new manager has half a brain. We've had 4+ years of them being shite under Pardew/Carver and had to suffer soundbites about what great players they are.

1-2

Are you taking the Transit to work today, Cherie? Ivan Toney
