Great quality on the ball for a fullback.

Some nice football from us there. They'll be well pleased, need to hit them early 2nd half.

Perchy doing well.

Good enough start lads, pile it on.

Liking that team very much. Much more confident of the three points now.

Unless a fair amount of work has already been done on another striker, given the rate we have moved in the past and the fact that you have to pay a premium this time of year I just can't see them having the time to shape a good enough deal for Ashley. Expecting the focus to be solely on a defender now.

Unlikely he'll get a better offer from the club, and Pardew himself went public calling on him to sign, so reckon the writing's on the wall. Have appreciated his defending for us this season though.

Remember in the past when Cheik's name was being linked with a move, on more than one occasion the local papers would get an interview with him saying he was very happy here. Ominously quiet this time. With Chelsea rebuilding and their constant links with the player, it adds up for me. And with Ashley knowing he can get the best price this time of year, reckon he'll be off sooner than later.

Well that's it. A complete fucking nightmare. Difficult to believe how all the wonderful things this season can be dissolving so quickly.

That's a really sad image. Much love to all the family.

Basically got the feeling our defence is vulnerable to anyone now. So it's a question of whether we can outscore the opposition or not, whoever we're playing. Got to go for it in every game imo.

Shittest day yet for him to be on Goals on Sunday, but he'll be dignified as usual. Fully expecting him to do the club proud.

Couldn't feel more gutted tonight. For Tayls himself, after such a great start to the season he doesn't deserve another long term injury of this nature. Also got a horrible feeling the season might just peter out from now on. Just can't see us keeping up our form after losing such a key player. Jesus!! Guess it was too good to last.

Got his work cut out now. Injuries could be the start of the slide all the "experts" have been waiting for. Tayls news sounding bad from Pards there.

Dignified and honest Pards there. Big respect again.

Outstanding again. Just pray we can hang onto him.

Lack of quality of certain players shown up bigtime today.

Well, this just isn't fair.

Losing both centrebacks, nightmare.

Just too much against us today.

We deserve at least a point now, come on!

Great from Shola, come on lads!

Coe on lads, come on Sammi.

Guthrie and Cabaye working really hard today.

Tayls doing well back there.
