    sorry Obi he tends to favour the elite 4-5 teams, (well noted)

    I agree. He looks very promising. I really like santon because I think he loves the club but I do think that at LB it is a bit of a shame because he is keeping out two very good young players in Haidara & Dummet

    Still a very strong team, but no Ozil or Ramsey in their squad makes me feel a little happier. <ok>

    Tiote in for Benni.

    I have just enough hope to make it hurt even more if we lose today.

    My worry is that Walcott has timed his return from injury to coincide with playing us. He enjoys playing against us! With a couple of matches under his belt and some goals to get his confidence up, he'll be fresh and eager to play our defence. We'll need to get stuck into them from the off and not let them get settled.

    How that wasn't a foul on Sissoko on the edge of the box I will never know. Ref has made some poor decisions first half.

    Arsenal fans out in numbers and friendly with it.
    Shame some of their players are diving.

    I think pards has listened to my tactical advice.
    Pards- FYI you need to bring Benni on at 67 mins.
    Midfield will again be key in the second half.
    Guy in the seat next to me has just backed 3-2 to the Toon.

    Debuchy, good going forward & didn't give cazorla lots of space.

    It's so hard when you have to play against the ref as well...

    Arsenal have been allowed to foul with impunity throughout this match. Newcastle have been called up for a foul if they sneeze near a red shirted player.

    Cazorla went down like a fairy for the free kick. Turned round, clocked Tiote behind him and swan dived to the ground.

    Perhaps the Arsenal strip next season should feature pink tutus as that seems wholly appropriate for them.
