Wil Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Very decent half that, more than holding our own. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Our attack down the right flank has been particularly impressive. Debuchy has made some brilliant runs. They have been pegged back there. We've also kept Walcott quiet so far and restricted them to long shots. Team work is great and we have been fair but strong in our tackles. Keep it up in the 2nd half, lads.

Tisd09 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Was worried after a poor first 5-10 mins but since then we have been the better team. If only we could get Moussa or Remy in the positions Debuchy has been in. Debuchy after an indifferent start to his Newcastle career must be one of if not the best RB's in the league? Cabaye a little quiet today not on the ball as much as I would like some nice passes from him though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 OK first half, clearly ploy to kind of play as if we were away from home. We'll see if he has ambition to win the game in the second, if HBA comes off the bench with enough time on the clock to make a difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Decent that, kept them to long range shots. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DebuchyAndTheBeast Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Sissoko and Debuchy doing well. Remy putting a lot of effort but not getting in good positions. Good performance on the whole but will be interesting to see if we take the risk and go for the 3 points Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHoob Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Good half. Seems to me like they are trying their best to get Tiote a yellow, they are rolling around whenever he's near. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 should we play Ben Arfa on 2nd half? Very difficult question for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Debuchy and Williamson have both been tremendous. Sissoko good. Anita and Tiote in the middle have provided a steely wall and have been extremely important in recycling possession. YoCabs not really in it. Nor Remy, though his first touch has been great. Speaks volumes that the likes of Tiote and Flamini have been far more in the game than the likes of Cabaye and Wilshere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Anyone think Gouf has been the weakest link? Hes been quieter hasnt he, Anita has also though suprisingly. Everyone else has done really well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Anyway, solid half. We've looked good without particularly threatening to create much. Think it's gone pretty much as Pardew would have planned, we've just not nicked a goal. It'll be interesting to see what we do if it continues like this. Both sides have been compact defensively but itll open up second half, hope we go for it. It seems very much like the match against Man City in the cup earlier in the season. In the 2nd half we really got at them, hopefully it will be like that, except we can nick the winner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I'm really enjoying that we are capable of playing against the top teams and looking at least as good as them. No matter what the result is today I think we will be staying in the top 7 all season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David28 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 should we play Ben Arfa on 2nd half? Very difficult question for me. It is difficult tbh. Question is, who to take off? Everyone's done their job. Probably Sissoko but he's been decent defensively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
