Love this guy, absolutely quality. Both goals were terrific, great first touches and then the finish.

Krul Simpson Willo (if fit) Colo Santon Ben Arfa Cabaye Abeid Jonas Ba Best If Obertan starts I think I might just walk out in disgust

Just seen this...what the f*ck man?! Looks like he might be a 5 game a season man

When I think of Santon the only games I think of him starting in are: 5-3 v.s Swansea ressies 3-4 v.s Blackburn (CC) 0-4 v.s Everton ressies 2-4 v.s Norwich Looked good today though tbh, really hope he stays in the starting line up from now on. As has been said though, would love to see him moved to RB and for us to sign a proper LB in January.

What a horrific group of fans this club has. Cannot believe they are talking about us losing, the day they've dropped into the relegation places

Pretty sure Obertan will be on higher wages as well. Was so infuriating today, everytime he got the ball he looked like he was going to lose it. I wish he'd just use his pace, knock the ball down the line and run yet he insists on bringing it inside and either doing a simple pass back or losing possession. Really hope he doesn't start against Swansea. If Pardew insists on Ben Arfa not playing on the wing I wouldn't mind seeing Guti being switched over to the right and maybe Ferguson come in for a bit.

Looks like this will be his last season with Newcastle then

Kadar not even on the bench? Seriously Pardew? We're knacked if we lose any defenders today. Prefer Ferguson on the wing tbh.

I thought it was Gosling

Great odds for that tbf, but I just coudn't risk 75 euro's Suppose you win loads every week though, unlike me

Honestly don't see this. We've played the best 3 teams in the league and managed to match one (Could argue we matched Chelsea before the last 5 minutes with the amount of chances we had). If we fail to beat Norwich or Swansea I'd say we're on a bit of a wobble but at the moment, definitely not.

But yeah, I think Real are gonna win on Saturday night.

Perch deep in concentration!

Aye, can't see Abeid starting over Gosling. Would be very shocked if he did.

Took Doyle out and put the Yak in. Another 4 please

Only got 28/1 in store :'( Bloomin' Ladbrokes, knew I should have waited and put it on at William Hill tonight

Probably chuck a quid on that. Cheers Neil

Can anyone have a look at what the odds would be for Ba first scorer, 2-1 Newcastle? Everything blocked at work

If he is feeling fit I'd start him tomorrow and then maybe rest him against Swansea at home if needed. Much more confident for that game and I think we could probably still get a win without Colo playing. I think we'll need him more against Swansea, especially with their style of passing play....need a defender who's going to be able to read the game well, havent really got the confidence in Perch or Kadar to do that I'm more worried about the presence of Morrison and Holt against Perch and Kadar tbh Hopefully, Tiote will be back for the Swansea game. If he was in front of Perch and Kadar I'd be a lot more confident.

Like that part especially
