Christmas Tree 4672 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Don't know if it was because of the shitty stream I watched it on but his ball for the winning goal and that one long range shot aside I didn't think Armstrong did much. And forgot Abeid was playing until well into the second half. Aye, I didn't think Armstrong shone particularly, but even the national journalists were crowing about him. I hope we play Cisse and Rivière together next and I would even start Obertan. Laid on some great chances and scares defenders when he's on his game. Lovely to see us win a game like that for a change. Let's just hope City take the next round lightly and we cause an upset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think he scares anyone but himself. But I would certainly prefer to see us have two wingers playing. Bored to death of the current trend of three cebtral midfielders and no real wingers in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 16995 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 if were still bottom of the league I expect Pardew to play his mother in law and a semi retired window cleaner who had a couple of run outs for Gateshead reserves in the early 80s...

The Fish 10674 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Just see a replay of the pen, Janmaat won the ball I've seen it a couple of times from the only two angles I've found; doesn't look like he gets the ball to me, which views have you seen?

trooper 940 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 It was a bloody awful game that we struggled to beat a mediocre team in extra time. At half time I was going to turn the match off but my curiosity got the better of me. Rivierie's goals were overdue I'm still not sure about him hopefully this will boost his confidence. I doubt that last night's team will progress against Man City so it'll suit Pardew & Ashley (the cups aren't a priority). Also the extra time last night has now given Pardew the perfect excuse against Stoke if we are beaten. An awful game by an awful team that has relegation written all over it fanks Alan & Mike.

toonotl 2938 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Just watched the highlights from the League Cup match. Fuck our defence is shithouse. Why Pardew tries to sit on a lead every time we get one I have no idea. Can't defend a cross to save ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try and get a few points in the premiership climb the giddy heights to mid table. Then its kneeze ap mavver braan innit, fanks Al, fanks Mike, your pair of cants.
