How are those three lovely passes that could've easily been assists on Sunday not flashes?

I would like to re-sign him, but not going to be particularly disappointed if we don't. Would be useful to have for Europe, but if he really is going to get upset for being dropped behind two clearly better players then that's frustrating. He's a nice option, but nothing more.

Great news. Gotta say, I did not expect this.

Showing "small signs of improvement," heart is beating on its own, some movement in his arms and legs.

Was he? Looked like a central midfield three to me. I'm pretty sure you're right considering Jonas was constantly moving up the left flank, even ahead of Cabaye at points.

I would agree with this, except swap Guthrie and Cabaye's ratings. Guthrie was comfortably better than Cabaye, even when he went off. Don't think so, Cabaye sent in some wonderful passes, first one to Cisse, cross into Ba, etc. Guthrie was forcing a lot, which he's been doing way too much lately.

Don't think it's really a problem, I'm sure it would help a bit, but there's nothing wrong with having less vocal leaders like Colo.

I would love to talk to Pards for just half an hour about his footballing philosophy. Three points though, fair enough.

Can't believe we're going to pull this out.

Do some drugs and this game will make sense to you.

Also, why is everyone slipping? This is our stadium and field, we should no how to stand on it.

I want to believe Pardew has turned the corner, but it's just never going to happen.

Oh shit, they have the ball, better back the fuck up then.

Great save. And Whitbread is not a USA international, btw.

This whole match has been on drugs, tbf.

What was he doing? Waving to his mam? He was diving in for a block, hardly surprising his arms aren't at his side. So, he deliberately blocked the ball? With his hand? No Do you know what intentional means?

The halftime reaction here is proof of what an odd half that was, everyone seems to be seeing different things.

Tbf, the actual rulebook only says it has to be an intentional handball, don't think that was.

I like the system, but we need to impose ourselves ffs. Put press on them, don't let them just waltz into our area because you're afraid to dive in. And Dowd has been shit.

Why the fuck do our defenders invite them onto us? You're better than them, but some pressure on them.

Perch looking strong.

Williamson is such an idiot
