Rafa is very firm on players coming back from international duty, but most other managers don't do it. This is where a squad comes into it, they can chance playing them knowing they have just as good on the bench.

Who put in a great cross our that wingers couldn't and that's their fucking job

palace have zaha and that's it like, lets not go overboard That's a problem, we have decent individuals in Lascelles and Shelvey but we lack a Zaha in forward areas to grab us something out of nothing. It's almost as if you have to spend a bit of money to buy that good player in forward areas who can make a difference. Cheers Mike.

Having a tantrum and withholding transfer money, because Rafa wouldn't sign a new contract until he could see if you were being truthful. You fucking pathetic weirdo, get out of our club and learn how to function like a normal human being or die, either or.

Centre half cross to other centre half

I don't think they will, for once i think most get the bigger picture.

i think the ones specifically complaining about rafa need to fucking pull themselves together... SUBS, PUT SUBS ON FFS etc. jesus You need to put subs on to change a game no ? He used them badly this game, he gets stick, he uses them well he gets praise...for you to say people should pull themselves together, for making comments that will always be made on games is so fucking woeful really.

We miss Shelvey so much it untrue, the only bit of quality we have in midfield.

Overraction give over man will you when you don't put out your strongest team against one of the better teams you deserve exactly what you get and he still isn't making any changes Nonsense, this was likely the strongest team we had available (fit) to start the game today, and we were very good in the first half which was reflected in the comments in here. Now everyone is back-peddling because Arsenal have came out and shown their superior quality. Short-sighted af. Bollcoks was it why are they on the bench then and still why isn't he bringing them on - he's got it massively wrong today Because they might only be fit enough to play for 20-30 mins? what should he do,not name subs? Yeah right ok What should he do then? You're so sure he got it wrong. Enlighten me You can't say he got the first half wrong as we were decent, but this half his subs have been too late and we're still sitting on one with 15 minutes left, which is fucking mental when you look at the game.

Joselu's control then, he is fucking shite.

How can he have not put Rondon on for Joselu as well ?

Love Rafa but not making a change by now is fucking ridiculous.

Diame's passing

Make a FUCKING change ffs.

Needs to change it now, not in 20 minutes like.

Sky on the ball, Ritchie back from a ban apparently

Lascelles might have an injury in the warm up Jeff Stelling just said, was limping on video shown.

That's a keep it tight until the last 20 minutes line up then bring on the bit of magic.

Tubes you know damn well that's just complete and utter bullshit.

Agreed and made me laugh more than it should have.

After having a manager like Pardew who told Newcastle fans they weren't as intelligent as Southampton's, a owner who couldn't give two shits why the club means so much to the people who live in Newcastle. You question why people still love Rafa, a man who gets the fans, the area, the fact the club is the heartbeat of the city. A manager being let down (ffs please don't yet again say he should walk, we fucking know) by an ignorant tosser owner. A manager we believe is staying hoping someone buys us out so he can give the city and it's fans the success they deserve. You don't get the love for Rafa ? You never will mate if you can't see what's right under your own fucking nose.

You make some very very good points but you're coming across massively condescending. Tubes, not you Fugazi

Just when you think Tubes couldn't be any more mental
