Cronky Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 The way I see it, the first half performance wasn't that bad, and I don't think it is fair to judge a team playing with 10 men versus arguably the best squad in the division. Individually you could say Taylor had a stinker, Debuchy defensively much the same, other than that everyone did alright. Yeah, I pretty much agree. We were outclassed, but we did look better than where we left off last season. Cisse is too lightweight for the role that he's given. Tiote is too clumsy in possession. Nothing new there. The plus points were Benny and Dummett. Dummett looks more than ready and should start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishMagpie Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 why the f*** have sky added this guy who I can only understand one word in 3 if I'm lucky might only understand one word but the difference between them and MOTD mob is like the the two teams on the pitch tonight.

Cronky Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 If it wasn't for Tim Krul this could have been 7 or 8. After the first few minutes, I thought we could end up with any score. Four is a bit of a relief. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Flash Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 West Am next. Hopefully as easy as some are claiming. Who's claiming that? In the Downing thread. A few are claiming we'll finish above them and they've wasted their money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Gareth Harrison @truefaith1892: @tfeditor1892 Blog on the Tyne - Dummett like a new signing. Taylor 'It's Worse than a death in the family'. 8 page Michael Owen pullout. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep yet people think Pardew should get more time when it's clear we're a mess because of him, forget the lack of players. It's the lack of anything on the pitch with players he has that's worse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Logic Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 We really have no fucking idea what to do when we actually have the ball, which is a little bit more than alarming. I got the impression the plan was to get rid of the fucker as soon as possible, in any direction! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinny Green Balls Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 It just amazes me how many people are still in the more time camp on Facebook. It's fucking absurd. "Stability" is more important than the best interests of the club. It's really horrifyingly painful to see some people's thought processes in action.

It literally won't make a shit of difference. I thought that from the moment last season ended, but that opinion wavered given the lack of football every week and I wanted some signings so we could improve... but I'm right back in that school of thought now. The problems lie so much deeper than the personnel. It doesn't matter who we sign. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Only caught the first half. Thought our initial formation looked like it had been patched together and that was evident considering we abandoned it before 10 minutes were up. I didn't think we looked too bad after the first goal, some nice passing interchanges and HBA and Sissoko looked classy. As ever, we were lacking in cutting edge when attacking, missing a link man and some quality delivery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 We are a bit short of players, but we've got quality there. Just Pardew has no clue nor desire on how to use them. You could give him the City squad and he'd still try to nullify the opposition all game, finish 10th and look clueless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
