I am not because in all honesty they have been playing poorly since Hleb and Fabregas got injured and have not got back their previous form.

They have been very fortunate with their results in the last 6 weeks but they are not the kinda side like Juventus or Chelsea that can keep winning without playing well.

FA BAN SOMEONE FOR 2 YEARS

A professional footballer has been banned for two years for failing to take a drugs test but he will not be named.

The player's identity would normally be made public but a clause in the agreement between the Football Association and anti-doping agency UK Sport means he will not be named if there is a danger the person involved may harm themselves.

The player, who is not well-known, flatly refused to provide a sample of urine when testers from UK Sport visited his club.

He was suspended for two years by a Football Association disciplinary commission. UK Sport reviewed the FA's decision not to name him and agreed that there was a risk to the player's mental and physical health if he were named.

It is only the second time a footballer has been suspended for failing to comply with a drugs test since Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand was banned for eight months in 2004.

A year later, Torquay's Icelandic international goalkeeper Olafur Gottskalksson was banned indefinitely by the FA for refusing to take a drugs test.

After viewing the list of banned substances, he left the club and never returned or played professional football again.

Agreed..Cesc in particular has been off color ever since that unfortunate injury.

Just Fecking Unbelievable...We are giving the Mancs another chance to catch us.
tbh newcastle were an absolute disgrace and manu were so lucky they were facing them in that time. The newcastle players had the perfect scenario to be complacent and they got belted with 6 goals in one half!

if i was a newcastle fan i would wait for them in the airport with plenty of tomatoes.
