I actually agree. Wouldn't have said so at the start of the season, but the way it's gong now it's our best option. Get somebody who can cross a ball in January aswell.

Never seen anything from Airey when I've seen him play that makes me think he will make it at the top level. Just a hunch like, but I'll think he'll score at this level before being relased and falling by the wayside.

Nolan played well against Everton and Villa, and was praised for his performances. However he has been poor in every other game, and was rightly criticised. He was also poor for large periods of last season. I don't see how he is a scapegoat, it's simply that a large proportion of people do not rate him. Just because you are in the minority, Stu, does not mean that everbody who disagrees with you 'cannot read a game of football'.

Their squad is shite.

Ahh well, take back what I was saying about Nilos the other day. Shoplifting ffs

His De Jong comments were a bit shit aswell.

This club man

Guthrie deserves an opportunity alongside Tiote. He never had that kind of partner last season yet was our most consistent midfielder.

There really isn't that much between Barton and Guthrie.

See, should be starting.

Makes me cry to see him on the bench and Milner on the pitch.

Silva should start.

Tbf, we matched this lot away from home just 2 weeks ago.

B'pool or Shitty? Both. I seem to have the same feeling about the majority of Premier league games I watch.

B'pool or Shitty?

Bridge is s***. He really is. Got raped by Gary Taylor Fletcher before. Sure he used to be quite good when he came through at Saints.

City looking pretty shit again tbh. Special mentions to the shitness of Bridge and Adebayor.

Seemed to remember at the last second he needed to shout it.

I agree about Perch. I think he's nowhere near a Premier League player, but he's honest and a hardworker so I cannot find a logical reason to dislike him as a person. The only blame that should be placed with regards to him is the scouting staff and manager who assessed him to be good enough.

Yeah, I edited my post in retrospect of two different points.

I agree. I'd still swap him for a talented twat in an instant, however.

I've seen him out, he's a f***ing prick. And no he hasn't. Fair enough, you've seen him out once or twice before and made the assumption he's a prick. Understandable why you wouldn't class him as 'likeable'. Still don't see anything wrong with his attitude in terms of being a Newcastle player, though. Which seems to be brought up time ant time again on here.

He hasn't and he isn't really. Well, he's on a professional contract, so he has. I don't know the kid so I'm not going to make a judgement on him as a person or criticise his attitude. Where are people making this assumption from anyway, his ramblings on Myspace when he was 17? I haven't heard anything negative about him in the 2 years he's been a Newcastle player.
