Can just see them next season stinking up Blackpool worse than it already is.

Probably turn out to be Louis Saha the second

Whatever happens we should fight to sign kenedy. Hes a great player and he has taken to the place and many a fan wants him to stay on.

I personally would still choose a fit Slimani over him based on 2 sub appearances. Hes contributed as much as the next man. But realistically id still say many others have shown more. Perez has suddenly stepped up, Ritchie is performing. Shelvey, Mo Diame has transformed. And the back pairing of Lascelles and Lejuene have seen us not concede many. Oh nearly forgot Kenedy who imo has transformed our attacking play ??. Any reason you single out Gayle as a big part? Or is it because a few including myself picked on him today....

Apart from the fact that Gayle has played well for weeks. Well there is the fact we haven't been able to select Slimani. So Gayle would have been trying his best, in my eyes his best isnt that great though. But we are safe now so lets not argue about it??

Boom, needed to happen. immediate impact from Slim. Gayle is horrendous.

Should have sold in January for 12m ??

Slimani for Gayle please. A proper target man.

playing with Gayle as a lone striker

The main argument is, Is he better than Joselu and Gayle. Probably. For me theres obviously some personality clash or he just got sick of his poor dicipline. Id bet Rafa would prefer him here if there wasn't an issue, but there quite obviously is.

Clubs back up for sale. Where has that crazy thread gone ?

Fickle bunch in here Aye, the arse kissing Merino got on a weekly basis. But in truth Merino stands out but is probably imo a more lazy player. Since he's been dropped the form has improved.

In January the calls to sell?

5-0 Europe bound.

?boom? Job done.

Gutted. Playing WBA now at home isn't going to be as much fun.

Amazing. Just when I was cursing Perez for not having the best of games he manages to finish what might prove to be a very important goal. Credit to Kenedy for his cool head in the box for the set up. A real pitty Slimani will miss the next fixture, but hopefully he will be training to start against Arsenal. He looked good with his limited time on the field. Im hopeful another 3pts will seal our survival. Hope we put the nail in the coffin when Pardew visits. The rest of todays fixtures couldn't have gone much better today.

Still think this game is massive for us. Out of all our remaining fixtures this and WBA should be our biggest focus. I pray we take maximum points in both the fixtures. ??

Its really hard to pin down a favorite. Do you go with Robert type screamers, important goals, or great team goals? Ginola vs Ferencvaros sticks out in memory. But a team goal in more recent times was Perez vs Ipswich. A goal of pure skill and guile would be HBA. One that sticks out for me is Peter Beardsley. Newcastle 3 vs 1 Aston Villa February 95. His second and our 3rd, he looks like hes loosing his footing and its pure luck, Beardsley did this a lot though he had quick feet and skill, then he goes and ouside of the left foots it for a great finish under pressure. Its something Lionel Messi would do today and the world would know.

Waste of what? Am I missing something? Is the "five games" also including Leicester's?! No thats after the Huddersfield game, but as pointed out if hes not ready for Huddersfield, the following game Leicester he cant play anyway. Bringing the total missed games since arriving to 7, and pinning our hopes on him being available for Arsenal.

Here we go. All aboard the bullshit speculation train.

Hope the cycle repeats when they visit us, they take the lead only for us to cement their relegation.

Quite liked the look of victor fernandez. Seemed to find good positions when not ignored by his seniors looking for their regular mates.

Limbombe vs Lascelles was
