Sean

From the sublime to the ridiculous in the space of a week.

He's been given too much time now, doesn't deserve to start the next match. He's clearly nowhere near as good as his purple patch when he first signed suggested and led people to believe. He's not quick, he's not strong, he's not skillfull, he's not able to hold the ball up and bring others into play... I could go on all day here. The only thing he has got going for him is he's a finisher, he reminds me of a Bent or Defoe type. Yes he might start scoring a few again, but even then he'll contribute fuck all else to the team. Get Remy up top in his place and suddenly centre backs have to worry about his pace and movement and skill (all things Cisse lacks). We'd look much better for it too.

We were fucking shit today like. Debuchy and Cisse in particular can seriously just fuck off as far as I'm concerned. Utter gash.

Inconsistent my arse. He's been brilliant when fit, and a joy to watch.

"It's a pleasure to play in front of our supporters" I think the pleasure is all ours to be fair.

Has to. I think Pardew will actually see that too.

Yeah...like a Ferrari isn't it? Hope his hobbling is nothing serious, didn't see it myself. Really could do with him staying free of injury.

Should have told him to get the fuck out of the ground after he scored.

Ben Arfa can be as selfish as he wants as far as I'm concerned, he's a joy to watch and can always produce a bit of magic to win a game. If Remy can stay fit, I've got a feeling Ben Arfa will get a lot more space and be able to get on the ball further up the pitch too.

What the fucks going on like? We looked fucking good for the last 15 minutes there!

He's amazing. Agreed. He's given us a different dimension, almost like how Bellamy used to. We have actually looked very good for the last 15 minutes.

Ben Arfa can be as selfish as he wants as far as I'm concerned, he's a joy to watch and can always produce a bit of magic. If you can't enjoy a player like him then I don't know why you'd bother watching football.

Get the fuck in! I fucking love Ben Arfa!

For fucks sake someone just fucking score! Aaargh!

Now we look like we want to win. Amazing what a bit of pace and movement up top can do eh Alan?

We don't look like a team that wants to win at all.

Shola and/or Cisse need hauling off before the hour mark...can't see it happening though.

Birtles is right about us not bothering to get in the box, but I don't think he gets that it's more likely because that's what they've been told to do by Pardew.

Fuck off Shola!

This. Shola and Cisse have been awful so far... can we bring Remy on yet?

He was crap last season. Lets hope he's crap today too.

I've just remembered how much I hate Damian Duff... the little cunt always puts in a performance against us (funny considering how little he tried when he was here).

I fucking hate Pardew more by the day. In previous seasons I'd enjoy a newly promoted team beating one of the "big 4", but I'm so sure we're going to be in and around the relegation places this year that even 2 games in I can't enjoy this at all.

Yep, I've got the same feeling myself. Good player but I can see him coming back from injury, just getting into some form then getting injured again (and repeat all season).

90 fucking minutes of this cunt? Someone shoot him please. If he was a horse he'd have been put down years ago ffs.
