Chuffed with that team.

Think he said it on the Total Sport phone-in.

Krul Perch Taylor Coloccini Santon Tiote Anita HBA Cabaye Marveaux Cisse He's never going to do that, is he?

Two of the games he's excelled for us- Man Utd h and away at Villa he was in a midfield two with Cheik. I get that it's not a system he is used to or prefers but it's only an excuse that goes so far. Both of those teams also had only 2 in the middle, right?

For me, Pardew changing to 4-3-1-2 over 4-3-3 demonstrates his primary objective is to keep Ba/Cisse happy by playing them in a front 2. How long will he continue to hinder the team before he recognizes that we really should be playing 4-3-3?

Gary Jacob ‏@garyjacob #NUFC considering late move for Ryad Boudebouz, attacking midfielder

Lee Clayton ‏@LeeClayton_ I've been doubtful about Andy Carroll and West Ham but I'm hearing there may be a chance after all. Deal is loan and then £17m if stay up.

I feel Pardew is restricting the team in an attempt to keep Ba happy.

Our ability to retain possession and ultimately control the game is far better in a 4-3-3. Ensuring that we do both is as important defensively as it is offensively. In a 4-4-2 we can find ourselves overrun in midfield, unable to retain possession, and ineffective going forward. When played into midfield our options are limited, our transitional play is generally awful, and we have an inability to get our more gifted attackers on the ball in their final third. Our strikeforce is, at the moment, dysfunctional, and incapable of making this formation a success. With the players available to us, a permanent move to a 4-3-3 is a must, IMO. The only negative being moving Ba back out to the left, which is something I do not believe Pardew wants to do.

This. I'm not bothered about today at all i'm bothered about the long term implications that using 4-4-2 has. You have to accept that sometimes, like today, we will have to play 4-4-2 or we will get raped. I totally disagree. Chelsea would not have battered us if we had gone with a 4-3-3. what makes you say that exactly? We're not talking about Barcelona here. Minus Hazard, they are the same team as last year, a team we finished above.

Is there a full list of teams we could be drawn against anywhere?

Sakho is the captain of PSG. That didn't stop Ancelotti from dropping him.

Lyon are having financial difficulties, and Reveillere is on a high wage with only one year left on his deal. I imagine he would start too considering his competition would be Jallet.

Newcastle United FC ‏@NUFCOfficial Regarding Alan Brazil's tweet, spoken to Derek and it's complete and utter nonsense! Maybe a case of a drink too many?

4-2-3-1, apparently.
