Fulham 5-2 Newcastle United Premier League 21 January 2012

"I gave a free-kick against you because I hate you and your big head of lovely big hair"

Newcastle were always going to face their biggest test when the Africa Cup Of Nations robbed them of two of their star performers this season, Demba Ba and Cheik Tioté, and judging on today's result, the Magpies could face a difficult month.

I'm glad I'm not a football manager. Davide Santon brings down Andrew Johnson this afternoon. Alan Pardew seemed to have the perfect game plan in the first half, as the Newcastle team completely outplayed Fulham and Alan Pardew seemed to completely out coach Martin Jol. And then came the second half.

This morning, Clint Dempsey became the first American to score a hat trick in the Premier League, leading Fulham to a come-from-behind 5-2 win over Newcastle at Craven Cottage. Danny Guthrie put Newcastle on top with a goal from distance in the 42nd minute, but Fulham's Danny Murphy converted a penalty kick following a foul by Davide Santon against Damien Duff in the 50th minute to tie the match

It's always difficult for a youngster to leave his home country and settle in England. Davide Santon - has settled down well on Tyneside But that's exactly what Davide Santon had to do last August, when Newcastle signed the Italian International for around £5M from top Italian club Inter-Milan.

Alan Pardew was extremely pleased following the 1-0 win against QPR yesterday afternoon at St. James' Park, and handed new manager Mark Hughes his first loss as the new manager of the London side.

Newcastle started the season in great form and were unbeaten in their first 11 game of the season, which equalled a Newcastle record. Davide Santon - has looked good in last few games But then we went into a bit of a slump with six games without a win, although in three of those games we were up against both Manchester clubs, away from home, and Chelsea at home.

Davide Santon and Shola Ameobi are both starters as Newcastle United entertain Manchester United tonight at St. James' Park. We expected Davide Santon to start at left back but it's a bit of a surprise that Shola gets a start, but he must be playing well in training. And would you believe it, we had [.

Davide Santon had a very good game for Newcastle today in the 0-0 draw against Swansea City Davide Santon in action today against Swansea Anybody who plays for Italy seven times while they are still a teenager is some player, and Davide Santon proved he is a top player in the making at St. James' Park this afternoon.

The result at Carrow Road today was not good, but the performance was very good, but Newcastle paid dearly for very poor defending from crosses and corners into the box this afternoon. The good news is that Davide Santon looks some player, and we'd be very surprised if he doesn't start at either full-back position next Saturday against Swansea City.

The result at Carrow Road was not good today, but Newcastle played some decent football and didn't have any luck at all. Demba Ba two goals and excellent game today Newcastle had some of their best players missing in Fabricio Coloccini, Steven Taylor, Danny Guthrie and Cheick Tiote, but two players Newcastle brought in last summer looked very good indeed today Demba Ba and Davide Santon.

After 3 weeks of writing about what we could hope for against the 3 best teams in England, I thought I would have to find a different avenue this week. Hoping is ok against the big boys, but obviously after our difficult run of ‘hoping', I was fully expecting a strong Newcastle team to bounce back in style.

Alan Pardew has indicated his targets over the next couple of years by saying he wants to add to Newcastle United's empty trophy cabinet.

Alan Pardew sent out an unchanged lineup against Wolves, and Demba Ba continued his impressive scoring streak as NUFC moved up to third place in the Premier League (albeit temporarily), after defeating Wolves.

Demba Ba was in the right place at the right time as he headed home a corner, and Jonas Gutierrez slotted home a nice finish after dribbling past several Wolves defenders.
