Off that ref today? Doubt it.

Don't know what he was doing for their second goal, like. Was good otherwise.

Nah, his best game came against Chelsea. Think he set at least two goals up in that one and was good defensively.

Still did better than Cissé has recently.

Gouffran and Debuchy worked their socks off today.

Goal is Tioté's fault, really. MYM has defended it perfectly if Tioté isn't jogging slowly back to position and playing Suarez offside.

Really hasn't. Aye, was probably our worst player (which isn't saying he was poor btw) before MYM's sending off.

Agreed. Thirded.

We don't have a sub centre half.

There's the real Tioté.

Our players been told to try ridiculously speculative shots then?

I hate Paddy Power.

Aye, these jokes are really... er... tyreing.

Yep. Unlike a lot of managers he's shown to be adaptable and is happy to set the team up depending on how we should be playing against the specific opposition. When we need to defend, we defend well. When we've needed to attack (like the last two games), we've done that well too. We aren't good enough to simply do the latter all the time.

He's a very good right back in this league but he's injured all the time and is on massive wages.

Kamara fucking loves Pardew an' all, like. It'll be terrible.

If we're consigned to defeat then I hope Williamson starts. If he's at fault for any of the goals then at least he gets dropped again.

In fairness I wouldn't expect many if any centre back partnership at all to handle Sturridge and Suarez comfortably at the moment.

And the manager's. High expectations not really in Pardew's interests.

Kinnear will blab eventually. It's just who he is.

Berbatov's contract is up at the end of the season. Think he'd do well in this team, even if he is practically dead at 32.

So why did we sit back 15 yards 2nd half? So we could absorb their extra pressure and play them on the break? If hitting the ball up to Cissé and it bouncing off him with none of our players being within 25 isn't a terrible tactic then I don't know what is.

This is a blatant wind up, like.

So Williamson playing and Jonás coming on were the right decisions? We've won today because Cardiff were monumentally shit in the first half and Rémy's scored two fantastic goals. Not because the team selection and Pardew's tactics were right. We've been extremely fortunate.
