Today's tactics and substitutions were on a par with the worst days of the Walter Smith regime. Again, only one striker up front at home to average opposition, and a striker who looks totally out of his depth at this level, but you can't blame Beckford for not producing ? he has come from two divisions below the Premier League for Christ's sake!

So we are being out-played, out-thought and out-fought against a piss poor Newcastle team and everyone is crying out for changes at half-time. And what does the 'Moyesiah' produce? Take off your striker and replace with a different one; take off your right back and replace with a different one ? never mind the fact we are playing with a centre back in midfield and Leon Osman continues his wretched performances on the wing. Carry on the 4-5-1 approach and dont even think about maybe playing two strikers when you are losing at home...

It's baffling.. and if I woke up to reports tomorrow morning of Moyes being sacked or resigning ? I would bloody love it.

Well done for expressing what I think a lot of us are feeling at the moment.

If I had tried to do that it just would have degenerated into an expletive filled rant!

I completely agree with Andrew McGreavy ? Martin Jol would be a good replacement.

As for today, I'd like to know where Arteta spent the afternoon; why Hibbert was replaced by an inexperienced defender whose much vaunted abilty to charge forward was completely negated (by instruction from the bench?); and why Osman is still allowed to turn out every week at the expense of Bily who, God knows, needs a decent run of games???

Relying on Cahill each week to ruffle the opposition's feathers and hope to play the last minute Get Out of Jail card is simply not good enough. And does Heitinga have a '70 minutes only' clause in his contract?

1. Heitinga is another Tommy Grav, all fists and waves, but definitely not a tough ball-winning defensive midfield player. I didn't see him tackle anyone today.

2. Fellaini was touted by our manager before his injury last season as the best midfielder in his position in the country... so why isn't he being played in that position.?He is wasted playing behind the striker.

3. If Arteta drops any deeper, he may as well play instead of Howard.

4. We have had a midfield 5 who would all consider themselves central midfield players. No width, for god's sake ? give Gueye a chance, or try Coleman wide right.

5. It wouldn't matter if we played Dixie up front at the moment, the service is abysmal, slow and oh so predictable.

Time for the manager to earn his salary and show some inventive team selection, put players in their proper positions, and realise that some players just ain't good enough.
