Incorrect. 1 goal and 2 assists in 24 appearances isn't good enough for a winger. He just runs with the ball straight into his opponents, doesn't even try to take it past them and can't cross or shoot a ball to save his life. I fail to see the point in him

Anyones better than Jonas!

That would be the £35m gone on 1 player when you take wages into account

Is there any chance of Shola returning sooner wearing a protective mask?

f*** it hoy Ranger in instead of Best and there is the platform for the lad to show the world Aye we might get £25m for him in the Summer if he bangs 15 goals in during the next few months!

We may aswell stick Coloccini up front, probably the best finisher at the club going by his goal against Spurs. Id play Harper Simpson Willy Colo Enrique Guthrie Barton Tiote Jonas Nolan Best We're desperate for Ben Arfa and Shola back, we'll be in the relegation fight by the time they're fit! We're pretty much stuck with this system until then

Tiote sent off after 5 minutes, Arsenal win 9-0

Tino is the top South American talent we were promised for signing Nacho on loan

Any word on how long until LuaLua is back? I'd prefer he got a chance than Routledge

Imagine Bruce walks and Big Sam gets appointed!

I imagine they'll go for Insomnia and try get Wellbeck permanent if Bruce is allowed to spend the money. Can't help thinking Ellis Short will be getting disillusioned with the joys of being Sunderland owner and start tightening the purse strings tho

A cheeky swap deal involving Best and Xisco going the other way?

Should never have been 5 mins, a draw is a fair result tho. Hopefully Pards will realize what our best defence is now tho, they were brilliant all game.

Attacking our fans in the second half

Perfect time for Ranger to come on for half an hour and show he wants to play, take some of the weight off Shola and put himself about.

Midfield is shocking, we may aswell not have one. Fergy Guthrie Nolan Barton would be much better, better shape. Get Ranger on after an hour aswell, he'll be dying to get over that miss

Id choose from Tavernier, Campell, Kadar, Perch, Routledge, Guthrie, Gosling, Fergy, Ranger, Besty, Vuckic and Xisco giving them all as many minutes as possible (depending on fitness). And keep a few big guns on the bench just in case (Collocini, Barton, Nolan, Shola)

Shows how small our squad is and that a few players had found their level last season in the Championship. A few injuries and we'll really struggle this season.

Explain.

Krul Perch Willy Collo Raylor Smith Ranger Guthrie Vuckic Ferguson Lovenkrands I wouldn't mind seeing Fergy play further up to give him a bit more freedom, because we're crying out for a winger that can whip a decent ball in. Ranger has been doing really well on the right, arriving late in the box at the back post so he deserves another chance. I think Lovenkrands needs a game and Hughton will be keeping Carroll and Shola fresh for Sunday. Obviously Smith holding in the middle to let Guthrie get on the ball more and Vuckic to push forward. Id be tempted to give Tavernier a game instead of Collo aswell.

What an absolute bastard this man is. He obviously had no intention of getting other companies involved and has only bought the club to advertise his business

Pretty sure it's Nolan haha!

There's a Pub in the Red Light district called Old Wembley (http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/place?cid=15177038976658526899&q=Caf%C3%A9+Old+Wembley,+Amsterdam,+Nederland&hl=en&cd=1&cad=src:pplink&ei=1gmbTPSNEI_VjAey6omnAw&sig2=n1b_eHpbjfFLMvGphSRqZA), they have Sky. Or you could try the Sports Bar just outside the Red Light District (http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/place?cid=3273209814951599961&q=The+Globe&hl=en&cd=1&cad=src:pplink&ei=fwqbTMv1O8O3jAeS3InpDw&sig2=70Ut34x_2MqJcmP8L05AJg) cheers mate! Theres the Newcastle Bar in the Red light district, never been in like but I imagine it'd be good craic for the match

Cracking cup-tie, amazing result! We shoulda had it wrapped up nice and early but I wouldn't have Newcastle any other way!

Krul Perch Willy Collo Enrique Ranger Barton Tiote Ben Arfa Nolan Carroll Pretty much the same as Everton, but I'd give Ranger another go on the right, looks a lot more threatening than Routledge and will give us some added height. I'd rather play Gutierrez down the left and Ben Arfa just off Carroll but Nolans bound to play.
