Resting Carroll is a must - seems to just about make it for the games as it is - he is needed for the Stoke game

I would rest the key players as Sundays game is more important

That was a canny game - I missed the first goal We played very well and were overall the better side - need to sort that final ball out That free kick by Dummett was criminal and ultimately led to the Chelsea winner - don't know what he was thinking Newton you could tell was playing out of position, struggled a bit and the chelsea left sided players had some pace - also with Vuckic playing ahead of him he didnt get the support he needed Campbell put in some quality slide tackles BUT he still looked a bit off the pace Kadar was solid, played well at left back and even when he moved into the middle Vuckic struggled in the 1st half, should not play down the right BUT towards the end of the game he was looking quality - came close to scoring a stunning half volley, just going wide Donaldson had a good game - missed his goal BUT he played well McLaughlin was okay - seems to have a bit of quality about him BUT gave the ball away at daft times though and seems a little on the soft side Ferguson was good, is quick and has some tricks, put in some decent crosses Edmundson seems canny, has a good touch and some pace Ranger played well BUT he needs to make decisions quicker at times, holds onto the ball too long - is a real handful and put the Chelsea defenders under lots of pressure

I will be going

I think he will go with an unchanged side - I hope im wrong because Alan Smith should not be starting

Jonas can't cross and he can't shoot - we have known that for some time now BUT he is certainly not shit, far from it I don't think he played particularly well, needed to make his decisions a bit quicker BUT it's just 1 game - no need to overreact and make it out like he is rubbish

Looking on their forums the Celtic fans seem to already want Forster on a permanent deal and the Brighton fans are giving LuaLua 9+ out of 10 for his last match. Good start for the both of them. Was it a season long loan for both of them? Season long for Forseter, 4 months for Lua Lua

Looked promising - needed to come on much earlier Should start the next game

Smith is shit - could not believe it when he attempted that tackle, fucking idiot

I've just got a horrible feeling that we will see the inbreds completely and utterly kick and hack their way through a few of our lads. This won't be a pretty match and I can guarantee that HBA will be singled out for the inbreds 'hardman' (Cattermole?) to receive a s*** load of physical abuse. Just you watch, it'll be like Ginola v Dixon. Hopefully wor Tiote will hammer that horrible little cunt

Yeah with the benefit of hindisght it looks like a daft move BUT at that time I could understand why he left - I really thought he was going to play regularly for Burnley, didnt work out - hope he can get his career back on track

I dont think Shola is a good finisher - so many times he blasts it over, well wide or straight at the keeper - also plenty of scuffed shots which just trickly to the keeper He is shot all round really - which is a shame cos at 18 he looked like he would turn out to be a canny player

he's muslim isn't he ? Aye he is muslim BUT christian name refers to first name it was a joke. Whoops :blush:

he's muslim isn't he ? Aye he is muslim BUT christian name refers to first name

Not yet - it has been a good summer BUT that usually means a fuckup is around the corner

Krul makes some mistakes BUT he will only learn to remove those as he plays more games Harper has been a brilliant servant to the club BUT he plays like a very old man - he is really slow - fortunately we havnt suffered yet this season BUT its only a matter of time his slow reactions cost us

I agree Arteta should have been picked BUT at least Spain had some awesome midfielders - BUT who are the left backs? Capdevila and Arbeloa - not being biased like (well maybe I am just a bit) BUT wor Jose is comfortably better than those

He cant be too far off getting a call up to the national side - he is better than the current left backs in the squad

Please let this be true - I was delighted when I thought he was going to leave a couple of years back BUT he managed to stick around and then even got a new contract - crazy Need to get rid - any money we get is a bonus

He is shit and is a lazy cunt - the sooner he fucks off the better

Shola was shocking Vuckic was anonymous, game seems to have passed him by - still has plenty of time on his side - would be good if we can get a home time against some lower league side, reckon Vuckic could show his class then Ferguson is clearly not a left back - has some pace and decent enough on the ball Lua Lua was lively, think it would be good to send him on a short loan to a championship side - get a run of games Krul was quality - made some mistakes BUT thats to be expected with his inexperience - cant be too long before he takes over Harper

No idea BUT he was holding his left calf

Exactly, he's had over 6 years in the first team and the only thing he'd be remembered for if he was sold tomorrow is being that local lad who had potential. He's not even worth £30k. I’d remember the commitment he showed during our relegation season. If some of his highly paid colleagues had shown an ounce of his drive and determination we’d have stayed up. If he's so committed he'll sign a new contract at Newcastle rather than look for a bumper pay packet somewhere else. Will someone else give him £60k a week? I doubt it He is better off staying here, getting himself fit and trying to get back into the side

Source for Nolan earning that? The other two are moot, because they were signed under Shepherd. I stand corrected - it was £50k not £60k http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1187448/Meltdown-Newcastle-8217-s-71m-wage-nightmare--stay.html The point still stands re. Barton and Smith
