As long as he doesn't pick that French guy. Lol I read the bit in bold and was about to say that he could always just pick Ben Arfa.. However I'd quite like to see Feguson given a chance, so hoping Ben Arfa can start in that "number 10 role" on Wednesday. Because that's likely.

FUCK SAKE.

The O'Neil factor right thurrr

Which is exactly what we should have done

I still think he's done a good job, it's just very frustrating because only a few things need changing for him to turn a good job into an excellent one.

Are they gona show the part where Bellamy mouthed off at Krul? Sorry if it's been covered already but I swear he said "fuck off you dutch cunt"

Yeah exactly, why does it have to always be a punt upfield where there's a very high chance we'll lose the ball? Just don't get it.

Couldn't believe what I was watching. I can't remember how many times we played it back to Krul, who punted it upfield and we lost possession. Is that Pardew's instructions or what? Because I don't know why anybody would keep on doing that, why can't we throw it out to the defenders and keep the ball on the floor? I know we have crap fullbacks, (excluding Santon), but we can surely try and play it out from the back a bit when we have the time? The other baffling decision was picking Vuckic over Ben Arfa, I just don't get that. I really like Vuckic, but for me Ben Arfa had to start that game, coming on at 70 minutes to try and win the game away from home and already losing is pathetic, what the hell does Pardew expect? Like others have said, I'm starting to get really frustrated with Pardew at the moment, the decision making and the negative attitude last night really annoyed me. He needs to buck his ideas up if we're to get anything from Man U next week.

Was over the moon when he scored yesterday, knocked me bubble and squeek on the floor but I did not give a shit. Really hope he can nail a starting spot now and cause havoc to the Liverpool defence next game!

Very much so. One of my favourite things about the Christmas period, coming home and watching copious amounts of football on my parents unnecessarily big TV. Was just saying in the TOG thread the games chosen today are bordering on criminal. A Fat Sam side followed by Pulis and McLeish's, really? That's the best you could do? Anti-football to the max. Madness. I know I usually moan about 'bigger' teams being on telly a lot, but during Christmas you'd think they'd have a few 'showcase' games. Indeed, feels strange not having game after game to look forward to on Boxing Day :/

Has a lot to answer for. Starting with the Santon sub, okay if the kid was injured fair enough but otherwise, what in the hell was that? Ben Arfa has to start ahead of Best now for me, didn't even notice Best except for when he was offside for Ba's "goal". As has been mentioned countless times, the high line tactic, really? Why do that? Like I said in the match thread, I'm losing some faith in him at present where I've usually been quite supportive of him.

Very much agree.

We simply won't progress with a fullback who can't keep the ball on the deck for 5 seconds. Not saying we should get rid, because I very much doubt we can find a better replacement with this regime, but for me he is a huge weak link in what is otherwise a promising team. Very frustrating.

WHERE'S THE MARKING?!? Fuck sake.

Great. Raylor long ball. Seriously if Santon isn't injured that has to go down as the worst sub ever.

KEEP IT ON THE DECK SIMMO! My word is he thick as fuck or what?!

PARDS STOP TROLLING US YOU SUAVE CUNT.

Shola is on his way man Fuck me, if you don't laugh, you cry

Make. A. Fucking. Change.

Losing some faith in Pardew here. Last few games he's made some shocking decisions.

PARDEW WHAT?!

MY WORD.

Samba having a crack at LW?

Is that you, Fat Sam? Which teams in the Premier League don't defend from the front these days? I bet you can't name one. Everton, cos they don't have any strikers. http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRGDm0iXw0HtuJsWxExgQEZCsIfF95Uk9TMlUL57fS8k42EQxlpnDeQ9EM
