That is brilliant.

To me he's looked very confident since his winner against Southampton. I think confidence is massively important with him and we've seen the benefit recently.

It's laughable that he was posting in the match thread while the people who would like to see Pardew fail were actually at the match supporting the team and by doing so, supporting the manager. It's laughable that I was posting in the match thread? Sounds like you don't get out much any more.

From his very first game at Villa Park he looked reluctant to take players on. He set up the first v Southampton taking on a player I didn't say he'd never done it. For such a quick lad and playing out wide you seldom see him running at full backs.

This apart form Tiote who should be nowhere near the pitch for this tbh. Fair point. I wouldn't really want Anita out there either, tbh. Yeah same. Bigi perhaps? Such a shame Hatem's probably not gonna be back. Ideally I'd play a midfield of Marv, Cabaye and Sissoko for this.

I think that the vast majority of posters critical of Pardew such as yourself and Bimpy have the team's best interests at heart and (like me, basically) just don't think he's ever going to be the answer. There are a couple of posters that consistently spoil this thread - who don't need to be named because anyone who reads it regularly know exactly who they are - that appear to let their hate for the man completely overshadow whatever affection they have for NUFC.

I think he's been very good up until the last 3 or 4 games.

A fair few of them want don't want him to succeed, even if it's to our detriment within reason. From the perspective of those who want him to stay for at least another season, since we signed the players we so badly needed in January we've won 5 out of 9 in the league, including 4 out of 4 at home and progressed past two good sides in the EL. A lot of people were saying the signings would present a definitive test for him. You could argue that so far he's passing it. Who's said that? Nobody's come out and said it, dude. Just the way some posters go on makes it virtually impossible to believe otherwise.

Krul for me, but he drove us forward very well.

Load of rubbish, tbh. You're talking shit their like he's a classy player Yeah I man obvioisly he's class, but he's still a lazy twat. If he ran around like Lee Bowyer he wouldn't be able to make anything like the contribution he does.

That would be a poor decision Not when there isn't an alternative.

Krul Debuchy Taylor MYM Jonas Cabaye Tiote Marveaux Sissoko Gouffran Cisse

His running reminds me of Hatem's. Not a speedster by any means but very quick off the mark and uses his body well to protect his run.

Did little wrong today. Great to see him celebrating with the fans.

Load of rubbish, tbh.

Fortunately it doesn't matter but he was awful today.

How on earth is that an excellent result for them?

What a wonderful day of football.

HAHAHAHAHAHA.

He's just not a creator.

Keep him at LB for the rest of the season.
