aaaaaaand that's Oba

Scored with his first touch!

Alvaro Morata on for Real. We were linked to him IIRC.

Juanlu should score there

Saved anyway

Zaha

True. Plus you wouldn't like to benefit from Navarro's thuggery.

I know you don't want to be too cynical, but surely you are?

3-2 Palacio

Inter coming back down to earth after beating Juve last week. 3-1 down in Bergamo.

We do those stupid floated crosses from open play too. Absolutely baffling.

I can't believe so much effort is being exhausted in criticising Ben Arfa. He's right at the bottom of the pile today.

Ours weren't much better Home atmosphere has been terrible this season. Another thing to thank the fat one for

Nabil El Zhar and Oba Martins. Levante are great, is their defence still about 35 in average age?

Benzema and Higgy injured?

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I was over the summer and still am completely perplexed by those who want him back.

Very true. My heart sank when I saw Shola coming on at half time. I know Cisse was poor and apparently had a problem(?), but it was so clear what our intention would be for the rest of the game. He wants to bypass the midfield and go from there rather than trying to get us to play football. Typified by our chase for Carroll over the summer. Very depressing.

That's the worst in a couple of seasons for me. It's been coming and the only saving grace is that it might make Pardew wake the fuck up. You won't see a more limited and one paced side come to SJP this season yet through their organisation and our utter cluelessness we handed them the result. Not even frustrated, just exasperated.

Tioté is our most overrated player since Cabaye...or maybe Jonas...or maybe one of the other players that has been crucial to recent ascent back to Yewrup.

Abate, Maggio, Balzaretti, Criscito have played recently
