The time is now for the glorious rebirth of Alan Smith.

 

I love the fact we've got 2 injuries in that position, and yet there's still 2 players ahead of him in the pecking order. Lovely stuff.

 

That's what you think.

Like Tiote will be back..

 

getting out of hand like

we'll see Gosling in there before Abeid

FFS I thought he was back in training

aye they said he stayed here and was in training when we went down to the Etihad...then afterwards i'm sure Pardew said 'he trained well'

or just say they don't know when he'll be back

Anyway, if you wanna go, let's f***ing go. I'll Geography the s*** out of you, let's go.

It's nothing to do with Cabaye wanting to play in the best league in the world, as most footballers do.

of course not although a quote from todays chronicle kind of backs it up

He added: “I came to England with Lille to play Manchester United in the Champions League a few years ago.

 

“I did not get on, but it gave me the buzz of the big English grounds.

 

“Now I am getting this each week – I am delighted.

 

weyyyyyy

sure the rags just like to piss us off by linking every decent player we have with the dippers

aye, wish we had a little dong of our own

It's essentially a choice between Tiote, Santon and Kadar as Perch's partner.

 

Tiote's attributes mean that he'd do ok at CB. He's strong, reads the game well and can tackle. Kadar is completely unproven and Santon isn't strong enough.

Its not though is it, i don't think Tiote should be anywhere near CB.  Too many turns in the box and not to mention rash tackling

For me its basically a choice with playing Kadar or shifting a full back in to the centre, neither ideal but both better than sticking Cheick in there..although he's had a to do a job in there for me on Fifa....so who knows...

we've gave enough pens away so far already thanks

thought it was a thigh strain? says he had a scan on his groin yesterday in the journal

 

Who are we selling?

colo and tiote

injuries are just a cover up these days 

its just a flesh wound

cant believe benwell lad's ruined our season ffs

well thats comforting

I'm not even feeling that sad after having lost that tbh. I know our next games are all very winnable and if we do that, there's no reason at all why we can't get back into the running for a top 4 spot.

 

Only thing that I worry about is the loss of Coloccini and Taylor.

 

In recent season we would have fallen apart without 2 key players that they both surely are - real test for Pardew now once again.

before that run of 3 games, i said i'd be happy with a point, albeit i expected it to come from chelsea...although i'm happy with a point, i'm devostated at the injuries....main reason we're doing so well is our solid back line and they're both out, it's a killer and it's made the next run of games more daunting and less 'winnable' imo

as you say, massive test for Pardew...be interesting to see next weeks line-up.

big test for the players as well, played excellent all season high on confidence...thats took a knock now so hope they keep their heads up

quality that

anyone got any pics of the scarf waving on 11 mins?

#songforpards "We've got (clap clap) Alan Pardew" TO THE TUNE OF

 

Simply MUST be done

Would be so good to get it going

seen skirge putting this about on another forum, hope it gets done

wonder if cattermole > tiote still
