We need to sort our defence! Iv been saying this for a while on here and everyone just goes on about how we need attacking midfielders! We dont need that! We need a stronger defence! A CB that can hold the game, and play the ball out so Colo can lead the team, and a full back that knows how to defend!! Both of these before any strikers or AM's!

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Totally agree, willo is not prem standard, he completely lost hernandez for the winner while Simpson was playing him onside.

Agree1 Disagree0

Santon is the only defender that's been good this season even Colo has been pretty poor.

Agree6 Disagree2

Colo has been poor? I could not disagree anymore.

You have to remember that in a backline of 4 there are supposed to be 2 centrebacks, Colo does his job to near perfection but cannot be everywhere and do the jobs of 2 centrebacks. He is only 1 player, no matter how good he is.

Agree2 Disagree1

Colo has been great at tackling and leading, but poor at tracking his men. That's why him and Pardew fell out, it's the worst part of his game

love reading some of the comments on this site. never seen as many fans in disaray (mind the spelling lads). by most of the comments on here the club is going down what a load of crap do you actually think you are worse than southampton qpr reading villa and a few more i can think of, dont think so. get behind your team and stop twisting about ye chairman and ye manager. last season you over achieved now you are back down to reality get behind the lads and stop being a laughing stock

Believable3 Unbelievable5

No one said we're going down...now stick to ur own club site rather than going round following other teams. If you think your so clever about newcastle why don't you just support them .

Agree2 Disagree4

Its not over achieving. You finish where you deserve to finish in the PL. We simple didn't strengthen when we had the chance to in the summer and now we are paying the price.

Agree3 Disagree0

We should sign:

Debuchy(we would of been alot better Today with his attacking ability at RB)
A CB( can't think of many don't think Douglas would be a good signing, Alderweireld has said he wants to stay at Ajax for another season, Sakho too expensive, wants to stay at PSG and would have alot of offers if he was to leave, Stefan de Vrij captain of Feyenoord, Dutch international and only 20 would cost abit but would fit Ashley's blueprint perfectly.
Sissoko(although we could try and get him for free in the Summer I think we should just try in January because Cabaye is out til Febuary, Tiote is off to ACON and it looks like we could be without Anita for quite some time.
If Ba leaves then a striker that can play on the left but can't see it being Remy as OM want too much.

played with loads of guts today deserved more.....BUT....Defence has to be a prority in January. I know John Terry is over 30 but Chelsea dont want him would he be worth a punt for 2 3 seasons

Believable1 Unbelievable4

You dont sign pensioners!

Starting to think colo is our weak link in defence. At fault 2 and 3rd goals and possibly 4th.

Believable4 Unbelievable3

Simpson and Williamson are the weak links. Simpson gives up a bit too easily and Williamson lets be fair isn't a regular premier league starting centre back. There seems minimal talking between back 4, look at the offside line during man u's goals.

Agree1 Disagree1

Simpson and willo at fault for the winner, willo lost hernandez while simmo played him onside.

Agree1 Disagree0

If RVP hadn't smacked him in the face in the build up to their 3rd, he wouldn't have been at fault for it because he would have been in position.

Agree0 Disagree1

Thought the lads played really well today and in my opinion,if Krul had been at same level as the other 10,that would have been 3 points. Maybe its time to rest him? Should have done better with 3 of their goals and maybe a few very recently too. Marvaeux gave pace,as did Obertan when he came on. Nice to see the negative team selection of late go and a team put out for opposition to worry about. RB,CB and another creative midfielder in january and we should move up the table. Cant see Ba leaving but if he does,a replacement must come in.

thought we done really well today if we play like that for the rest of the season we will be ok ...a few players brought in when the transfer window opens...well done lads really proud of you today ...geordie tom

Believable2 Unbelievable3

A few players, are you for real.This club is only going in one direction and it aint up.Cockney Mafia Out.

Agree3 Disagree3

Cockney mafia out is that all you can say m8 think people stopped saying that 2 years ago...without the so called cockney mafia we would'nt excist as a club now ( freddie shepard was running the club on massive debts ) ...hwtl ...geordie tom

Gutted, absolutely gutted. We didn't deserve a lose, we didn't even deserve a draw, that should of been a win for us. But still, typical manchester united (Who my family hate) nick it when they didn't deserve to. All credit to the lads, for one of our best counter attacking performances. Maybe arsenal might just be our time to get a good win or draw, coz they haven't got van persie anymore. Really need to work on our set pieces, those are some vital chances to actually score against the big guns. Jonas must stay dropped and cash in on him in january. Lets hope we can beat arsenal.

Believable3 Unbelievable4

Arsenal, beat them,your kidding right?

Quite funny how most people think we are going to spend £15-£20m in the January market. Little to no value for money in the market, unless you move for players entering the last 6 months of a contract, and get them on nominal fees.

Expect no more than £10m to be spent this window. And don't be surprised if we only spend £5m.

Believable3 Unbelievable1

Wont even be 5mill

Gutierrez is not even on the bench for Newcastle today?

Luckily enough it is the same situation for Rooney.

I hope Pardew will make Fergie regret dropping Rooney, this is our chance.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Thank ****, we'd have gotten hammered if he had played. Great effort from everyone, Marveaux showing his quality over that lump.

Agree0 Disagree1

Team for today anyone? Reply to this with your team.
This would be mine:
4231
Krul
Simpson Williamson Coloccini Santon
Perch Anita
Obertan Sh. Ameobi Marveaux
Ba
We simply cannot get caught on the counter, but we have to catch them on the counter. Id say get 9 men behind the ball including marveaux, then give it to Obertan who can run with it down the wing then get it into ba who scores. We cannot go 1-0 down.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

9 men behind the ball is exactly why Man Utd beat so many teams, they get far too much respect from teams and teams allow themselves to be rolled over.

We should be going there thinking about destroying them, not digging a trench and praying for what comes our way.

There are question marks over Rooney as he seems to be hitting one of his seasonal runs of bad form.

Now is as good a time as any to push high, graft and take them on.

If we do not go there to win then we have already lost before we turn up, I actually have faith that Pardew will be thinking the same way.

The pressure is off and noone expects us to win so we may as well have a crack at it.

Obertan is bound to be in the team today, the old jinx of players going to town on their old clubs could come into effect today.

Agree1 Disagree1

Id rather lose 2or 3 nil fighting than sitting back and still losing 2 or 3 nil

Agree1 Disagree1

We're gonna play man u on the counter, and man u don't beat teams who sit back, look at when they played man city, city were dominating and because they got too many men forward, man u scored on the counter attack because they're so clinical. We need to use the pace of obertan and marveaux on the counter to help ba. But we cannot afford to play jonas, he's got to be dropped or he'll be targeted.
