Anyone who thinks Rafa isn't signing these players is basically talking shite. Absolutely no chance Rafa would have signed on here with us in the Championship and have Carr and Charnley tell him who they're signing. Just repeat that to yourself for anyone who thinks that is the process... Then sit down and have a word with yourself.

Totally agree. One of the best players out there today.

About time he gave us a performance like that. More of the same week in week out would help.

It genuinely was though, Pards is 100% accurate with that Was it shite man!

Just heard him on SSN. "It was the most one sided game he's ever been involved in was the second half". What a write-off that cunt is!

Our best performance of the season so far. Played very well today and hopefully everything is just starting to click now.

Delicious. As good as having (WUM) after your username. mackem written all owwa him!

He could be our new Antoine Sibierski. We were all fuming when he signed but actually ended up being quite useful and scored us a few goals.

Cabaye misses pen! Hahaha!!!

Palace losing 1-0

Not impressed with this at all.

Hope this isn't true like. Not sure what Rafa see's in him.

Got Bournemouth on my coupon. Fuck pardew.

Just stands there on the steps with his thumb up all the way to "New Castle".

Where did you find out there was only 1,500 home tickets left?

Back at school here with the FIFA ratings.

About 48k I reckon.

And he was all around poor. Bar the beaut of that Klinsmann penalty save. Very good kicker of the ball though. A bit off topic here, but can anyone link me to a youtube video or something which illustrates what good distribution (not wordly goal kicks that happenes 1 out of 1 000 000 000 000 times) for a keeper is? I´ve never seen what was/is so bad about Givens, Harpers or Kruls distribution. Surely as long as the ball isn´t passed short or thrown out, the goal kick "quality" doesn´t mean s*** as outfield players from both teams will have ample time to position and contend for the ball anyway. Harper wasn't too bad with his, but he went through a stage of kicking it where he looking like he'd been kicked in the stomach each time. It was bizarre. Krul has always had bad distribution... A clue is how many go out of play or no where near our outlets. Or how many he slices and so immediately puts pressure on the side.

Signing a goalkeeper is the last of their worries to be honest. They're woeful in most other areas of the field.

Got a bad feeling about today like. Don't think we're playing well enough to beat Brighton to be honest.

Agree - has got something about him and will only get better. This keeps being said about the youngish players we bring in. Considering our record, I'm not sure it's an entirely valid supposition. We have Rafa now though.

That mackem that said earlier in the summer that they should sign him but then we sign him and he's suddenly shit. Sums up them lot perfectly.

Massive lads fan with hair like that.

Him and Atsu down the left with Yedlin and Ritchie down the right. i like the sound of that.

According to who? f***'s that mean? "Lazaar-Newcastle, document exchange. 3.5 to Palermo, 5-year contract. visits tomorrow" You guys really need to add the Chrome translate extension I could have just hoyed it in google translate but I couldn't be arsed.
