Tiotes Witch Doctor

GOALO!!! 1-0 DOWNO

No way is Brown getting there in time.

Suarez is playing worse than I've ever seen him play, can see a sneaky 1-0 mackems win judging on the game so far.

Ref has been awful and Liverpool have been awful thus far

Not that we will, but we should be breaking the bank if necessary to keep him, easily worth 15 million.

Pardewed.

6-0 will do me nicely.

Coloccini is gash.

The difference between HBA and Marv aside from being creative and more talented is that they WANT to get forward, you rarely see them go backwards or even sidewards, and this is also the exact reason they dont get games, too attack minded.

Our players have absolutely no desire to give the ball to Hatem.

Its nothing short of diabolical that we haven't made another sub. edit: wrong thread ffs

I honestly think if we don't improve the team hugely we will be looking at a relegation battle next season.

Ben Arfa having to point to the players to run into space, well I suppose Pardew isn't gonna do it.

"Gouffran stays on though, no need to take him off John"

Don't get me wrong I love Anita and think hes a good player but hes done no better than the likes of Sissoko, Tiote, Cisse....

To be fair like no matter who is putting the crosses in its our ability and plan to attack said crosses that is the biggest problem, though our delivery is also very poor.

Anyone noticing Sissoko playing a lot more reverse balls in behind? That is the sort of service Cisse thrives upon and he should be looking to do that more often, in that case I would stick him in the Cabaye role with Ben Arfa wide right.

He is average in a defensive capacity and well below average going forward, in summary he is shit.

Tidied.

Gouffran playing like he doesn't belong on the wing.... oh wait.

Everything was better yesterday, even his general play was much improved. Made some good attempts and ended up scoring when given some decent deliveries, funny that.

Was pushed further forward later in the match and looked excellent, always looks better the higher up the pitch he is IMO, though he is very good playing deep also.

De Jong looked decent when playing with Remy, the link up and hold up play was good enough to overlook the lack of goals, thought he was utter garbage against Fulham and is inexplicably being over rated for his performance today, he offered nothing whatsoever apart from one decent move with Cisse, which was no more than a pass back to him. I would have Sissoko, Anita and Tiote in a midfield three, Cisse lone striker with HBA and Gouffran/Marv on either side of him.
