Wisdom has been great, Pacheco's been meh, Suso had a good run and Assaidi has done a couple of things. Henderson has been alright.

I kinda wish we had Morgan upfront cause nobody wants to get in the box.

Sadly its been like that for quite a while now for us and has been one of our problems in general. Pacheco's more of a winger/attacking mid so he's going to keep drifting out wide but yeh we could do with a Yesil coming who'll be looking to get into the box and attack the ball, if Morgan was on the bench I'd say bring him on.

Just remembered we have Borini on the bench so later on in the game I would look for Borini or Yesil to come on for Pacheco.

I like Strachan's advice for Suso and Pacheco - be more like Xavi and Iniesta!

And you, Assaidi, be more like Messi!

[Starvinho]

2-2, another nice header.

[Hobo]

2-2, good header.

[Cymbols]

Scored in the right goal this time.

[Hobo]

Well, this is better than Spurs did here.

[DavidMarrio]

Great finish that by Zarate

[Starvinho]

3-3! It's a goal-fest tonight.

[Hobo]

3-3, Borini and Coates! Most likely Coates!

[DavidMarrio]

I'm saying that goal belongs to Coates rather than Borini

[Starvinho]

As a striker, Borini will claim that all day!

[Hobo]

They can share it! Half a goal each.

[DavidMarrio]

Good link up between Borini/Henderson/Shelvey. Good finish by Shelvey

[Starvinho]

Shelvey makes it 4-3! Got a feeling we haven't see the end of the goals yet though...

[Hobo]

Jonjo

[Cymbols]

It's raining goals

[DavidMarrio]

Can Newcastle hurry up and get a goal so I can win my bet please

Also Shelvey Smashing finish

[Starvinho]

Shelvey for England

Great goal though.

[Hobo]

5-3! Shelvey again with a cracker.

Wish I'd watched your game instead, boring 0-0er which we pretty much dominated but failed to score. Had we scored every time we hit the woodwork we'd have won 2-0, but you only get goals when they go in (and sometimes not even then ).
