Atalanta @ 1.83 is definitely worth a few quid tomorrow, maybe Roma too @ 1.66.

One of the few that come out with any credit today, looked a threat going forward and defended well. Some of his crosses were excellent, best I've seen from us in awhile that wasn't from HBA or Cabaye.

Thought he was just a better Shola awhile ago..seems I overrated De Jong.

Yeap, it's poor finishing. Compare him and Remy, complete contrast. Remy who has missed a lot of sitters this season too?

That was an amazing save.

Ameobi time.

He was onside when he wanted the pass, he made a good run and HBA just ignored him and had an awful shot.

Our best player today.

Wish we would give Alnwick experience in goal now.

Anyone got the count for how many goals we concede from 45-55th minutes?

Coloccini you stupid ****, get fked to Argentina.

Elliot, so bad.

Anyone still idiotic enough to defend Pardew?

bewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwo

There are a good 10 reasons minimum to put in favour of Pardew being sacked.

Only 1-0 down. Taking a moral victory, should be 7-0.

Gouffran having another one of 'those' games.

Gouffran & HBA are doing absolutely naff all.

Santon?

Sissoko & Anita can do it too. Sissoko might be able to see a pass, he can't execute it though. Executed 4-5 in the past two games pretty damn well.

Sissoko & Anita can do it too.

And if he doesn't hit the ground running, then what? Umm and ahh and go back to Santon? Then back to Dummett? It would be achingly typical of Pardew to drop Dummett now. I know he hasn't played well - I know. But as I keep saying; we've committed to giving him some games and there's been flashes of ability. Dropping him as soon as he's got his arse handed to him renders the whole thing a bit pointless imo because he hasn't had that long (behind a front six that's woefully disjointed, by the by). If, by the end of the season, he's shown no improvement - fair enough. I'd get him and Haidara out on loan and look to invest in the position. As for Davide, I wouldn't bat an eyelid if Roma or Milan threw £5m at us. The point is, we have nothing to play for so may as well give our youngsters a run out. Dummett is playing incredibly poorly and doesn't deserve to be in the team..so let Haidara play for a few games, see what he can do with a decent run of them. It's not the first game he has had his arse handed to him.

Wish our midfield would play through balls quicker to Cisse, a few times Sissoko was just too slow.

He was appalling again, try Haidara now.

Gouffran should have scored as well as cost us a goal..almost cost us two if it wasn't for Krul. He'll play at the weekend still.
