Plonker. Still runs around like he's a 18 year old on his debut. He's a vastly experienced premiership player who's decision making at times is amazingly bad.

Needs to have a total worldly vs West Ham to repair some of the damage. If he's only here as his mate is then it's showing.

I still think he's a decent full back but he hasnt got the stomach for it at all and thats a massive problem.

This. He's got the qualities imo but he doesn't give a fuck.

Horror show and we will be down to 9 by full time.

There is a snippet on .com about this by the way. They usually stick nothing on there if it's without any foundation.

We're whining as the club haven't done a thing to amend the issue's that almost got us relegated last season. You can't just assume everyone will stay injury free all season and we won't need strength in depth, you always need. Going into the match on monday with Shola as Cisse's competition tells you everything you need to know about how this club is being ran.

It's not just since Kinnear has been here that Pardew has uttered these sort of things before. It's every transfer window. At the start 'we need 3 or 4' then as time goes on it wittles down to something like 'if we can get one over the line before the window closing we'll have done well' Pardew has such a cowardly persona when it comes to this stuff. I will repeat it though, working for Ashley must be nightmarish.

It's absolute rubbish. Players have been moving everywhere for a few weeks now and we aint done anything.

What the fuck is he talking about man? I don't think he knows himself now.

Agreed he hangs on to the ball far to long, doing these stupid swivels and then losing it. His confidence seemed shot all of last season.

He should watch Jack Wilshere play. The kid is going to be phenomenal if he progresses in the right way. Different type of player. Wilshere is a footballer for starters who is up and down the pitch and can pick a pass. Tiote attempts these things and makes a total mess of it usually. Tiote needs to go back to doing what he did when he looked an excellent player. Sitting in front of his defence, winning possession in a strong and aggressive fashion and then distributing possession in a sensible and tidy manner. He did it so well and it worked in it's simplicity. It's since he's attempted to be something he isn't his game has gone totally pear shaped.

Eh? I'm not disagreeing with you.

Jonas is shocking in the middle of the park man come on. He and Tiote are as bad as each other.

What about the stature of our club? I know it seems hard to believe now, but for a couple of seasons around the Keegan era they were looking up the table wondering how they could achieve our CL position. that was nearly 20 years ago man christ oldham were in the league not long before if we're bringing stuff up that far back. They've won a fair few trophies since then and should have won more, had amazing sides, and are in the champions league annually. In that 20 year spell since Keegan they'v done far more than we could ever dream of whilst we have plodded along in the farcical manner we generally go by. They'd done quite a bit before then also, excluding that wobbly spell they had when we were flying.

Expectations at Arsenal are of going for trophies and winning them. Something they haven't done in a while. They have money and an exceptional manager, yet they never seem to go for the jugular in the transfer market to make a statement to their rivals. Their frustrations are understandable imo when you look at the stature of the club.

I find it hard to believe they know much about it, although the conclusion is probably not far off even if it's guesswork. This summer is a glorified version of last summer. Kinnear is a ridiculous and ludicrous person to finalise transfers, but Ashley will have known that when he appointed him and will no doubt be comfortable with it knowing little will likely get done in the market. It's all Ashley, everything bad seeping through this club is down to him.

The most unsolvable of mysteries.

They should probably stop releasing pictures of him looking like Fatty McBurgermuncher then. You'd have thought someone at our press would have looked at that and told them to take another one like. Even common sense stuff we cant get right at the minute

It's both. The mediocre club feeling has been planted by Ashley's ways but there is absolutely no need for the fuel Pardew keeps throwing on the fire.

I like hearing away fans from the opposite side of the ground when their team scores. On Tv this, not when i'm at at SJP obviously.

Well said. Clubs are trying to make a difference and look at us doing nothing. Not suggesting we blow money on shit players but fucking hell do something.

Proper love players appreciating a team mate after a goal. As you pointed out Nobby was fantastic at letting the everyone know who created that chance. One of my favourite ever Newcastle players.

muted booing.
