Newcastle United Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2014/15

Cissé's an interesting player. When he's got time to think about what he wants to do, he nearly always fúcks it up but under pressure he comes up with the most audacious attempts/goals.

Shoot first time from now on son.

Anoeta

He's infuriating to watch but he pulls some rabbits out of the hat when he wants to!!
Hopefully he can find a bit of form.

Vurnon San Benito

Perchinho on his nickname in my interview with him:

"I can remember it all started away at West Brom last season, and it seemed to stick since that. I don't know the direct source of it but someone should put their hand up and take great credit for it!"

Will post the rest of it when its in article form

Swansea away going to be an interesting game, if we get Hatem back we could nick it you know!

Moneymaker

I'm hoping they'll be hungover after their cup win.

Seannew1

We had a great 2-0 away win from swansea last year,unfortunately,3 things are against us repeating that this time around.
For a start swansea are much improved from last year and they'll be on a high from last sunday,also the reason we won last year was because our defence was brilliant that day,something that we haven't said much this year and also Cisse was scoring for fun then,something which also isn't happening at the minute. I'd love to say we'll get a draw but I can't see it and I think Swansea will shade it tomorrow.

Swansea last year had like 80% possession yet they did nothing with it, I cannot remember them having a decent chance in that game they just passed between back and midfield,
I think we should at least taking a draw from this game and should be winning, michu wont get the space he did last sunday and i think swansea will be really weary of our counter attack

My verdict 3 points

Ranger has left the building!!

Moneymaker

That's honestly the best news related to nufc i've heard in ages.

Frightening to think how much he got paid for doing so considering he had quite a lot of time left on his contract.

What an oxygen thief that man is.

what wages was he on?

Stories of Cabaye having a 34 million release clause doing the rounds. More than welcome to take him for that money!

love cabs but for 34 million we could really improve our side

M5

Lineup

Elliot; Debuchy, S.Taylor, Yanga-Mbiwa, Santon; Tiote, Cabaye (c); Gutierrez, Sissoko, Gouffran; Cisse.

M5

Swansea one-2's back heels, nutmegs all coming off,

could be a long day!

Two errors from Elliott already, looks nervous!

M5

Sammy scores for Boro

BetterCallSaul

Not able to watch today, how we playing? Happy enough to tune in to 0-0 at this stage anyway.

M5

See saw game, couple of chances for swansea, nowt for us. Could go either way. First goal will win it i'd imagine

M5

Cisse should have scored!!!

M5

Gouffran should ahve scored too!!!! great work from Cabaye and Sissoko

M5

Cabaye hits the bar

M5

Our corners not getting any better, Cabaye has kicked it out of play twice today? Have we hit 400 corners with one goal yet? must be close?

M5

Sustained pressure now my NUFC

Moneymaker

All Newcastle. Should be ahead. Just need a break.

Moneymaker

For gods sake. Comedy stuff.

M5

Ah piss off

Duff

Don't fúcking believe that!

M5

Return of our old luck, how did that ball end up there FFS

Moneymaker

Totally undeserved. Ridiculous goal to give away but if you don't take your chances.

Dave147

Hard being a Newcastle fan tbh.

M5

cross deflects, defender misses it, deflects of another defender onto the first defender straight to swansea player who hits it, deflects off cabaye away from the keeper...

Seriously?:mad:

Duff

Unbelievable! Just couldn't take our chances.

TaosHum

Tough loss. Really didn't deserve to lose that one. Much the better team in the 2nd half.

Lads, how Jonas is still getting his game baffles me.

I think its down to Pardew not trusting Marveaux to do the hard work and get back. If he continues to start when HBA is back, then I don't know.

I have been screaming that for ages. He provides cover for the full back but as he offers so little going forward he ends up freeing up their FB to come forward, negating his cover. Waste of time playing him. Sadly he seems to be past it

His defensive work is great but offers us nothing particularly when we were chasing the game on Saturday. Personally I'd have Anita in Jonas' position.

You simply cant have a player who offers 0 going forward on the wing. I think, for once we have a consensus

Gouffran does what Jonas used to do.

When Hatem comes back it's got to be Gouffran on the left and Hatem on the right. It has to be!!

Still waiting on these Sun'lun tickets to drop for next month.

Yeah, will surely be Jonas' replacement!

Keeping an eye on them myself lad! Have flights booked anyway

Anoeta

I'm a fan of Jonas but his form has definitely dipped this season. I still trust him to have around the squad though whereas Anita and Marveaux I'm not sold on entirely.

I'm expecting them early next week I'd say. Wouldn't want to be leaving it any later than that.

Looking forward to heading back to the Strawberry pub. Quality pub for pre match.

Anoeta

Seems to be a good few on Viagogo for the Sunderland game.

They're mad expensive. I got tickets in the Milburn from the NUFC box office for £45 and they're charging £65 for the same area on that site...

Yeh the price flies up for the "sell outs" on that site. If you can get it through the club directly all the better but probably difficult enough for Sunderland.

M5

247 corners without a goal and only 1 in 350+

The long ball has been sorted, now time for pards to focus on this issue!

TaosHum

Cisse left out for the Anzhi game. Ben Arfa and Campbell in the squad.

Anoeta

Hopefully Cisse's ok for Stoke. Squad in full.....
Alnwick, Shola, Anita, Ben Arfa, Bigirimana, Cabaye, Campbell, Elliot, Gosling, Haidara, Marveaux, Obertan, Perch, Santon, Simpson, Sissoko, Steven Taylor, Tiote, Mapou

TaosHum

With no Gouffran either it means Shola is all but certain to start up top.

Who plays behind him will be interesting. I don't see HBA starting, so I'd predict Marv, Sissoko and Jonas. But I've seen Obertan start ahead of Marv before so wouldn't rule that out.

Rest of the side I see being the same as the team that won in Kharkiv.

Jonas was left at home. Will probably be Anita or Obertan I reckon.
