Cabaye was disappointing again against Villa from corners, have to say Anita was getting quite good at it. Not sure how he is going to fit into the team anymore though.

Cant explain in words how happy I am there's going to be little more of those floated freekicks towards Williamson.

With twitter going mental everytime a player takes as much as a dump thats too loud I'd expect to have heard something about it

Really? Thats the first I've heard of that.

Odemwingie What an arsehole!

Saying someone is better than Simpson is hardly overhyping them

A bit harsh considering early days and all, but from what I've seen of them so far, cant say I disagree.

Im all for the finding a right balance argument. But Jonas really has to offer something more than headless chicken running. His game has gone completely off. Dont think he should be dropped considering what a good job he has often done in the past for us and can still do in the future. And I maintain his form has a lot do with the number of different roles and positions he has been asked to play for us this season. Just hope somebody is sitting with down with him to try and sort it out now that we have a semblance of the first team back.

Debuchy looked very quick to me in the Euros. Might have been surprised by Agbonlahor's turn of pace although he probably would have been warned about it before the game. I dont think we are going to see him outpaced too often.

Bloody hell. Im not sure what you watch then. Debuchy is willing to run the channel and take on people, and he's doesnt shite his pants when he sees an opposition player blocking his way. Thats a big enough gulf for me. Yeah Debuchy hasnt been perfect in the last two games, like you said he will take time to settle in but even currently I think he's made a significant difference to our right hand side.

Sometimes when watching Man City play over the last couple of years I've often thought how brilliant it would be to have someone like Yaya Toure playing for us. Sissoko seems to have the attributes to be every bit as good as him with a little bit of added flair in attack. Wont read too much into the second half performance as everyone barring Krul seemed to have disappeared for that.

Let Torres play

Yup dropping back that deep is inviting trouble, any half decent team would have punished us.

Excellent first half. Very excited about the way everyone linked up. Cracking goals too and a very promising start from Sissoko. That guy looked every bit as good as he was touted to be. Dont want to talk about the second half, havent read through the whole thread but Im sure its been discussed in length already. We disappeared completely and in all fairness were lucky to come away with a win. Man of the match Krul for me. Good to get a win under the bealt and hopefully can go on to better things from here.

Would take a draw here, they are just as desperate as we are. Chances of getting anything from Chelsea and Spurs are slim so this is immensely important. Lose today coupled with Chelski and Spurs then certainly all the morale built up by this window will disappear. Need something today, mind we seem to be saying that every week dont we?

Ah. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/4740838/Newcastle-and-Saints-eye-Standard-Lieges-William-Vainqueur.html

According to twitter some Belgian paper has reported we are in for someguy (French of course) called William Vanqiuer. Midfielder. Why in the world would we be going in for another one of those?

No signing thus far this week. Ashley out! I think its obvious to most of us the reason for the spending in this window is the fact that Ashely and Co have finally realised relegation is a real possibility and they are going to suffer serious losses if it does happen. Nevertheless we have signed some players with genuine quality, those that can take us to the next level. So I'll give the management credit where its due and hope they have learnt from their mistakes. Its upto Pardew now to salvage this season. No more excuses.

Cant be sure with all the rumors about Bony and the other French lad going about. Yes Im not going to attempt to spell his name. He wont be setting the league alight anywhere but he's decent backup and will push Shola further down the line so there certainly wont be any harm in getting him. Might come a bit cheaper now too considering he seems to want out.

Danny Graham has put in a transfer request apparently.

They've realised getting relegated is going to cost a lot more than spending on these players. About bloody time. How many of these guys are eligible to play in Europe by the way?

Someone was going to do it sooner or later

Nah nicked of facebook.
