Don't see the point of him if he doesn't even try

He needs to be faster, react quicker to passes. Should've been on top of that Atsu pass...

Joselu would have scored that

News in Korea that he's heading back to Newcastle early due to his Hamstring.

..that touch on the edge of the box by Hayden..

Ki's a solid player. Good passing range, won't ever lose the ball. Keeps the team very tidy and the ball moving. He was sensational for a season or two, because he seemed to have all of his technical qualities now, but also had non-stop hard running under him. He's lost a bit o that dynamic running capability now. Still, at least as much quality as Diame but gives us something different, Diame will be box to box allowing Shelvey to play deep-lying playmaker, Ki will be the solid deep-lying midfield sweeper who allows Shelvey to get more forward and control the attack. Ki is like a Shelvey with a harder tackle and more running, but perhaps not as much creativity. I imagine Rafa being able to rotate Diame and Ki next to Shelvey very effectively depending on what kind of game-plan he has for each game. Watch him, you might be underwhelmed now, but his quality will shine through over a season, mark my words.

Perez is fucking brilliant, I always said it.

Perez looks properly tired, not running for counters, not closing down in defence anymore.

Must equally be mental factors as much as physical and technical. You probably forget how to play and pick up loads of bad habits when you play for Pardew and Carver for too long....

SAIVET! and WTF is with this ref already?

They are essentially the spanish versions of Chopra and Ameobi

Joselu must be the master of goals that wobble in, that's 2 out of 2 now. Hasn't scored one that he hit with any conviction.

Amazing how the very two positions Rafa wanted strengthened (striker and goalkeeper) continue to punish us this season.

Atsu not running in for those through balls as much today.

Our team shape is good but our back-line looks damn edgy.
