Might not be the worst thing in the world. Ferreya needs to prove himself to get a permanent move here and we've got two young lads who might shine if given the chance. Cisse might remember how to play football too.

I'm more surprised that Slim thinks they're going to struggle for numbers

Hatem Ben Arfa is going to be meeting fans at the back page on tuesday?

Aye, they always recover quick with us. Our other nickname is Lourdes of the North.

Wow, that's a bad nickname.

This that sun tie up thing? I hear the nazi party are gonna sponsor our training gear this season too.

Fucking anguish face as big as the moon.

Lovely through ball from Colback there.

Floated set penis to Willo at the back post is alive and kicking.

Needs more Sports Direct tbh

You just don't have enough money to truly appreciate him.

Played some decent stuff earlier on. Sissoko's movement's been a lot better aswell, I notice he's bursting up the centre a lot more than he did last season.

Selfish bastards not wanting to hurl abuse in front of their kids.

We need extra digits for next week. 4-5-0-0-0-0-1 maybe.

Play a flat four midfield in a 4-4-1-1 and play our only winger in the middle

Its a replica of the 1914 - 1929 away kit. I like it. I would alos like to see us go left field and go with navy blue shorts with the home kit. Maybe when we get back into the champions league http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Newcastle_United/Newcastle_United.htm Hey look. Plain black and white stripes for 100 years, maybe we should try that.

Can't really draw any conclusions from pre-season. Might be able to pick up a few clues about our intended formation and starting XI but it's really just a fitness exercise.

Possibly the least appropriate gif you could find for FMA's NUFC.

You don't pick your attackers based on their defensive contribution. Pardew, however, does exactly that and that's why we see strikers being played on the wing because they run a lot, Jonas being given more pitch time than he deserved despite zero attacking product, Ameobi starting games for his ability to defend set pieces, a plethora of full backs being (mis)used due to their versatility on the flanks and, yes, our most talented player being dropped and frozen out for being an attacker and not a defender. It's going to be interesting to see how De Jong plays next season. If he's in the midfield strata it'll be telling to see his position when the opposition have the ball. I can see him being asked to drop and get behind the ball, much like our 'wingers' are asked to do and our striker will again remain isolated. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it anyway.

We do have an option in midfield in Anita though. If we play 3 in midfield we can use Anita and Sissoko to win the ball with Anita recycling possession, moving and giving an option and keeping us ticking over and Sissoko box to box. De Jong at the head of the three linking play with the attack. I think that'd be quite a decent set up and quite effective. Defence definitely needs some reinforcements though, agree there.

He deleted his account because of this. I hope you feel proud. *rejects request* Can we appeal?

That's because every opinion you have about football is wrong.

Nobody is bashing Pardew for not picking Jonas and / or telling him he isn't good enough.
