Thanjk you.

good win, surprised at how poor newcastle were, missing players or not, at least have a go, one of the worst performances by a home team ive seen for ages.
Absolutely. Long may Nando continue to score the odd goal in matches we're drawing 0-0 and miss hatfulls when we win 3-0.
Perverse sign of a class striker - takes one chance in 10 minutes to win a tight Fulham game, last minute vs Spurs, something out of nothing vs Chelsea - vital goals; misses a load away at Sunderland and Newcastle when we don't need them.
However many he gets by the end of the season, no-one can say he's a flat-track bully.
Of course, the real evidence of his class was that not only did he make most of his chances today himself, he was clearly the prime factor in unsettling their defence. They simply did not know how they were going to cope with him whenever he got the ball.
I would love to see the possession and shots on target stats from today. For all they would show how poor the Toon were, they could not disguise how good we were - mobile, fluid, confident, creative, controlled.

That's my new book. 'Shut the **** Up, by Dr. Denis Leary'. Patients come in. 'Doctor I-' Shut the **** up! NEXT!! 'Doctor, I've got this-' SHUT THE **** UP!! NEXT! 'He made me feel so much better. He just told me to shut the **** up. Nobody ever told me that before!'
Denis Leary - 1992
Crisp passing combined with good movement.
Genuine goal threat from several areas of the pitch.
The old Stevie Gerrard on display, great performance.
Lucas looking more and more comfortable in English football.
The 3rd goal that was sublime movement, passing and finishing all in one.
The return of Kewell - if only we can keep him fit.
Kuyt doing his best work in the final third and not on the halfway line.
Torres all round play - wasnt his day today with the one on ones but not in the slightese bit worried about that, he brings so much to the team, another great performance.
All in all, no complaints at all from this game - keep going like that and we wont be far away come May. Newcastle were very very poor but it doesnt detract from the fact that we played some lovely stuff today, and fingers crossed our blip is looking well and truly over.
If you've lost your faith in love and music the end won't be long
