Kadar. Shame isn't it? Can't play a kid who looked promising so we'll stick with a weak as piss hoofer in Williamson.

Krul Simpson Colo Kadar Raylor Tiote HBA Guthrie Santon Ba Cisse

Wish we could get the Cabaye against Aston Villa away back. Been so boring lately, rather Guthrie played atm, which I think he should be anyway in a midfield 3.

A very good impact sub.

Debatable if he's even decent in the air.

He's class, hope we keep him for the rest of his contract.

Guthrie should be in his place on sunday, no wonder he won't sign the contract if he's being kept out despite being the one on form out of the two of them.

First half tactics were good, can't see why that couldn't continue. The hoofball doesn't work for us and our players are too good for it. So frustrating.

Not buying a CB in Jan could really dent our european chances this season. Wish Saylor was back

Yes haha and would have took pleasure in it. The ban he'd get wouldn't be worth it though.

Krul 7 Simpson 7 Williamson 3 Colo 7 Santon 3 (Perch 6) HBA 1st half 8 2nd 6 frozen out Cabaye 5 Worst game for us so far Tiote 7 (Guthrie N/A) Jonas 7 Obertan 6 (Shola 7) Ba 7

This wasn't Simpsons fault man, he's the scapegoat tonight it seems. Kept Oxlade-Chamberlain quiet and saved us with a goal line clearance.

One of our best players. Frozen out by hoofball 2nd half

Out of the big teams I'd rather lose to Arsenal, proper football side great to watch. To lose the way we did though was heart breaking.

What's going on with Krul and Van Persie?

Tiote pulled hamstring

We're now so one dimensional on set pieces the commentator knows what we're going to do

Good in the air. All he can do with hoofball.

Since when has king Shola wore Puma Kings? fitting I suppose.

Gervinho's head man I'll never get over it, it's huge.

Pardew stuns me. Play well first half with passing football. Revert to awful long ball 2nd.

Cabaye's lost his little mean streak aswell so not even winning tackles. Worst game for us so far?

Not a bad game, still some hope for him. Got the pace just wish he'd unleash it more often.
