Saint Garrett

Irrelevant, I'm sure I would find loads of options if it was my job to find players to sign. It's their full time job.

Oh come in... He's been out injured for over a month

Tbf, Forster takes ages too

Think is, if Pelle scores in the first 5 mins on Tuesday, I guarantee he won't look tired and uninterested. The lad just needs one to go in.

Yup would go for Arsenal and Liverpool to finish top 4 with Utd missing out. Wouldn't surprise me if Man City had a bit of a shocking end to the season. They've got the buffer of being ahead, but with the others in recent form, there could be a chance of them catching up City. Big win for Liverpool today.

Eh ?

Yaya Toure has played like someone who doesn't want to be on the pitch in this second half. So far off the pace its embarrassing, not sure how he's stayed on the pitch.

Surely we won't concede against them? They're missing Sanogo, Campbell, Chamakh and Murray, and could also be without Jedinak....(Is there any chance he'll get a retrospective ban?) Likely to play either Gayle or Ameobi up top. On another note, how do they have 6 strikers, yet we have 2?

What a goal! Coutinho is awesome. If only we had someone who could shoot from 25 yards.

Come on City, got a 5er on 2-1

Why would he want to go there...in fact why would many managers want to go there? I do like Newcastle and they're a huge club, but it's just not a job which any good managers would want, because of the whole Ashley and his best mate scout situation. Manager gets no control over anything.

Lol, not sure anyone in their right mind would put Lallana and Tadic in the same league. Lallana is miles better. Just as Pelle is worse than Lambert.

Created this thread back in August. Problem is still there.

Game over methinks.

Forster Clyne Fonte Toby Bertrand Wanyama Davis Schneiderlin Mane--------Long---------Elia

Crap, and really crap to watch as well.

Loads of the ball, absolutely nothing in the way of goals. We're not particularly making chances and when we are we don't look like scoring. We tried 2 up top to start with today, and it's not worked at all, and had to change it after 20 minutes. Where do we go from here from an attacking sense. I would quite like us to go back to playing 4-3-3. Would be tempted to start Long on Tuesday as Tadic and Pelle have been woeful for a good few months now. Get the solid 3 back in of Wanyama, Morgan and Davis, and then would be tempted to put Long out on the right like the start of the season, he works so hard for the team. I don't want us to set up with 3 at the back on Tuesday, as Zaha and Bolasie will have a field day against our wide CB's. Mane is too unpredictable for me, but strangely he's the only one who looks like scoring. I'd be tempted to bring him off the bench as an impact sub on Tuesday -------------VW------------- -------MS--------SD--------- Long-------Pelle---------Elia Pelle should be dropped but we have noone else. We could all see we needed another forward in January, and we didn't even go after one, an odd choice IMO. Interested to hear others opinions on our attacking line up. Expect to see very few people picking Tadic and Pelle for Tuesday atleast!

We tried to play him through the middle to start with today, but the 3 at the back didn't work.

We're a better side with Davis in the team IMO

Davis on for Vic

Every time we're trying to go through Pelle who is at the top centre of the box, WBA just crowding him out. Have to do something different. So annoying

It's not about having a scapegoat, it's about the fact he's been crap for weeks, as has Tadic.

He's nowhere near the player Rickie is tbf

Mane is such a wasteful player. But capable of being a match winner...

Gardos off for Elia....
