Luckily they average the lowest amount of crosses per game in the Europa League then. Pardew is obviously a tactical genius then. Until they unleash Traore...

That defence is so vulnerable to crosses, I hope that's not in Anzhi's plan tonight. Anita will also have a lot of work to cover in defence. Hopefully we can nick a goal or two seeing we're likely to concede goals. It looks very much a counterattacking line-up dependent on some good old magic.

Perch in central defence... What happened to Saylor?

The reaction to the red card where he got up from his seat and went down to the 4th official was hilarious. Too bad I can't find a gif of the whole moment. Edit: Found it. http://ballsdot.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/fergie.gif

wouldn't surprise me, our only one this season that i can remember is the ba handball one against reading That didn't come from a corner. We haven't scored a corner goal all season. Ba's header against Wolves last season was our last corner goal.

GW29: Norwich 2-2 Southampton QPR 1-1 Sunderland Reading 2-2 Aston Villa West Brom 2-1 Swansea Newcastle 2-2 Stoke City Liverpool 2-2 Tottenham

You do hope a stray ball doesn't smack him in the head when he's doing the sawing though.

http://espnfc.com/news/story/_/id/1362238/qpr-turned-zenit-bid-samba?cc=4716 Doesn't make sense. Surely Zenit can't be that stupid.

Amazes me why we can't even take a decent corner that doesn't go out of play before it enters the box. Cabaye did one today and I believe another one previously. Anita also did the same. I struggle to find another technical player who's so useless with corners.

Which other occasion did he do that? I thought it was Redknapp who named 6 subs the other time. Edit: K, just remember Redknapp named 7, 2 of which are GKs. He done in both games against Bolton in the cup. So third time today.

The same guy who didn't do pre-season and yet came in looking the fittest of the lot? The crock who's had 2 unfortunate incidents thru no fault of his, one of them a leg break? I can't reply to someone with Ben Arfa in his profile picture. Biased view. LRD's right, despite the club having scanned him etc, monitored him him since he came back, he certainly should be put straight back in at the earliest opportunity and the clubs medical team ignored and the other players blamed for their injuries being their own fault. Wth. I was just saying Ben Arfa isn't a crock. At no time did I say he should be in the squad regardless of fitness.

Makes his PL debut today.

Anyone has the Swansea line-up?

Naming rights + Mike Ashley to give out SD carrier bags.

But would he have a decent Championship career if he sorted himself out?

Didn't realise there was still a 3 long years in his contract. Glad we don't have to suffer his antics for what would have felt like 3 decades.

Some of them could have European ancestry (parents, grandparents etc). There's also the exceptional talent scheme when it comes to WPs. If not, we can always loan them to a continental side (Spanish, Belgian etc) for a few years to let them gain a 2nd passport.

Brilliant.

If he had made an effort, he would have eclipsed Shola's Premier League substitute appearance record.

Not too dissimilar to his shocking West Ham miss then.

His career will just be a succession of lower league clubs each time he moves, til he falls into oblivion.
