What the fuck is this? This is far and away the most worrying comment Pardew has made about NUFC so far

Appalling, but I think that's going to be standard everytime he returns from an injury. Who knows what he does in his spare time when he's injured but whenever he comes back he's a slug in terms of brain and foot

Shook my head for fifteen minutes after half time, just saying to my mum I didn't know what Pardew was playing at... obviously, there's an injury but it better not be serious as Raylor upsets me

Best NUFC player for me. His passing and composure is superb. He's very comfortable and strong on the ball. Can see him being a heavy goalscoring midfielder playing in the hole or centre mid/lampard role

Had no legs or vision today. I honestly think being made to cover for Raylor has fucked him temporarily. he's got no gas

I didn't think he played great even though I'm a massive fan. But he had the hunger and a spark which he'd been missing. He looked to go forward all the time instead of sideways and the only reason I think he made a couple of mistakes was because he has been under-played and he wanted to impress so much. Starter from now on for good, we need him

My mum gave in and decided to come tonight.first game I'll have been to with her.hope we stomp on them and Ben arfa has a moment where he wanders through them

Goal machine Jonas obviously needs to have a word with him, give him some tips

I don't know what PhilB is going on about. Terry is a complete cunt, I hope he gets nailed too.

Awesome,pleased for Bolton.you were really unlucky with pre season injuries juke.go back to being a gremlin kean,you embarrassment

Unnecessary vitriol I think. Most people love Jonas and see some weaknesses in his game, I think most view Vuckic as a really exciting prospect along with Sammy. Obertan gets a massive amount of abuse which I think is unfair but I wouldn't call him shit, he has some great facets to his game and many of the pieces of a good player. Your points about Hatem and the French team are a little skewed as he's been injured for a year. I hope when he eventually does get games, either with us or with another team and plays well you come to realise that these calls for him to be included were not the obsessive, unjustified calls of a mob but the necessary pleas for a player who can improve our starting eleven

Makes no sense to me at all. When the opposition is sitting deep you need players like HBA who can operate in a small space, not players like Sammy who need lots of space to run into. One hundred per cent correct Unbelievable. You need players who can work balls through tight space. Who picks a pass better in our team? Sammy? The kid who runs and runs but has yet to make a meaningful cross/shot/pass in a game? ... Cheers Pards, for talking shite

Going to have to go to this one by myself I think.... cue forever alone image

you make a fair point Hindu, about Obertan. He is not deserving of the abuse he gets and I think his main problem is concentration and confidence. Something which can and will improve. Hatem played the first couple of games back from a year out with an injury and he was ok, then he had some good moments against the best teams in the league. Unless he's appalling in training, I don't see how he is being beaten by a couple of unproven youngsters

exactly, I couldn't give a shit if he didn't score, or do any assists or even if he lost the bal. The point is, he has more to his game than many of our other players and over time this will eventually come through

I'd be furious not frustrated. Sammy and Haris showed something in training? Hatem's shown it on the pitch for years, comes back from injury and has some moments. Haris and Sammy have changed no games for us..... I'm sick of harping on about it but it's my number one gripe with both Pardew and the current set up

Balotelli is a great player and I find him really likeable. I've always liked people who don't give a shit. I like Jamie O'Hara's attitude on the pitch and think he is underrated for what he does. I think Mceachran will become one of my favourite players. In the past I've been a big fan of Henry and Torres for the way they singlehandedly dragged their teams at times

Load of wank if you ask me.he's shown signs of his former self,it's not even like he's been a shadow.I think pardew sees him only as second striker or in the hole.wise up man,he's a versatile player who can affect the game from a number of positions.as long as he's on the ball he can/will affect the game.think pard is just trying to dodge bullets there

4-1 win.we're going to do them Ba x 2 Best Abeid

Agree about the phenomenon and messi in my lifetime.I cant imagine anyone better than messi that I'll see before I die.he's just incredible.the phenomenon was deadly,could just turn it on and kill teams by himself.Cron is weird because he's obviously a ridiculous talent but I don't enjoy watching him and don't think he comes close as a 'footballer' to messi and the real ronaldo

Where was this post earlier on in the season when we were winning? In fairness to mick, he's always said Pardew was wank. I don't think Pardew's a great manager and I certainly don't think he's a poor one. But he has a major problem with rating players. He sees things that other people don't see, I don't know if it was baseless rumours but I remember hearing that he was really keen on Carlton Cole among others...

Maybe Raylor is better than Santon Maybe Shola is better than Best Maybe Obertan is better than Ben Arfa These are all situations he's persisted with in the past only for it to be proved wrong. Do you not think it's possible that Pardew just makes bad decisions on players? I don't understand your point. With Raylor, it was clear that he was being kept in the team because we were doing well and he offers a lot from set pieces. Somewhat understandable but I agree Santon is a class above. Best starts of Shola every time he's fit pretty much so I don't understand that point. And maybe Ben Arfa is better than Obertan on the right, but it's by no means a guarantee. I would like to see him try it though. We were doing well with Raylor in spite of him not because of him. Thanks for the goals but defensively there was never anything there to say he deserved his place. My point with Shola over Best was to do with last season, how he persisted with Shola when Best was evidently better and Best only got in due to injuries. We're not talking about guarantees, I would happily have Ben Arfa in and have him do the same amount as Obertan right now, which is nothing. Because at least you know, you've got a very good player getting match fit again. I'm not trying to be a dick by focusing on it like this but I just think Pardew makes big mistakes with personnel

Before pretty much every match someone will make their prediction and state HBA as a goalscorer. A fair few do seem to believe when he plays he will either score or get an assist in every game. I agree that he should've come on today, but also agree with Cajun that there is an expectation from many that he will do something every time he plays, which he won't. The goalscorer thing is just a piss take. People would like it to happen but people aren't banking on it happening. They just want to see the player with the most talent on the ball in our team. Is that too much to ask?
