He has 10 goals in 16 games and causes havoc in most games, his technical ability is not all that like but quick and athletic, seems to struggle when given time to shoot ala bellamy but better than what we have had in last season. Strikers go through spells of inconsistency and agree he could do more at times but 10 goals is fairly prolific

Unfortunately I think the scum will beat them due to the protesting/turmoil at Cardiff. Fully expect them to get dragged in and go down now. Hopefully Fulham can beat Hulll away and West Ham beat West Brom

They're just too insufferable and pious. And Suarez. They play some great football though, great on the eye. Worried about Chelsea - don't know how they're still so close to the top. Hope Arsenal win it, suspect Man City might pip them to it. Chelsea or Man City will win it, fully expect both to step it up now and Liverpool to tail off to some extent

He has clearly got us fitter, organised, hard working and built up great team spirit and also looking to play better football. All of this comes from him and even if you hate him you have to appreciate how we have progressed since last season. Beating Man Utd, Chelsea, Palace etc was not luck, we played very well against them all

Same end result and considering how much money they have spent.

We are 6th and just 3 off top 4 doing a cracking job and can see why he left Sissoko on as more likely to bomb on, although he was shit in first half. As much as I hate Pardew at times I dont see how anyone can gripe when we are in such a good position after last season

Considering we are 12 clear of 10th we would have to not win another game and just so unlikely. I hope to fuck we add quality in Jan and go for champions league

If we get level with these in next couple games will we start getting credit we deserve ?

No chance now. As if the bottom 3 will win 6 more games and we lose 19 on trot. Wont finish outside top 10 tbh and likely to finish top 8

Im edging towards 1-1 but hope we turn them over and buy players in Jan

Tiote is key here, if he is up for it we will win

Depends on our fitness and injuries we pick up in 2nd half of season. I think we will finish 7th or 8th. Surely your taking the piss about Everton

Against stoke it might actually make sense. no doubt who is the footballer of the 2 If we launch the ball then we will be playing their game, and thats the only reason to use Shola. Sissoko centre, Cabaye as he was and Ben Arfa right

Whether I could or not, I'm not going to. Basically, he couldn't. Not every manager has a style of play or blueprint. A lot of managers will set up his side in a way they think will be best to beat the opposition, others will pretty much stick to what they know each game and may vary it slightly. The whole we don't have defined style of play under Pardew is a load of s*** to be honest. Many managers don’t, what’s Jose’s defined style? He changes it up a lot but he wins matches in whatever way he can. Fans are basically criticising Pardew as he doesn’t play the way they think we should play. They want us to just play attacking possession football in which the likes of Martinez/Rodgers/Laudrup strive towards too. End of the day we don’t have that type of manager and I guess that’s why a lot still want him sacked and a foreign manager with this type of philosophy brought in. I would just like to see us go for teams a bit more tbh rather than worrying what they can do. Something we did against Palace to a degree but need more of that rather than hoping to not concede everytime and trying to shut up shop when 1 or 2 up, however he has done very well so far this season and appears to make correct decisions at times, in fact he has been making more attacking decisions recently bringing on players to attack rather than shut up shop. If he sustains what has happened so far and adds to it then nobody should have any complaints

Pardew is meaning british players in the Joe Kinnear knowing what he needs bit isnt he

Just watching the highlights and seeing how key Anita was when the ball went loose or as an option to play back to, he got it, recycled to the wings and we ended up scoring. Even though Palace are down there we still had to go and beat them and they have done well recently and fighting for it but we did them with confidence bordering on arrogance at times. Was good to see

It will be Shola for Tiote and back to 4-4-2, pity as I think the 4-2-3-1 suits us nicely

Ince and a striker please

I hope we see this massive chance. We are 3 points off champs league at this stage, get the two players we need to lift us and go at teams. Would love to see us show that ambition and go fuck it we are coming for you.

He fights for the ball and uses it intelligently, never panics at all

Even when Remy isn't scoring we still are and he is still useful with his movement up there. We are retaining the ball very well in some games and trying to attack from all angles, right, left and centre. We no longer look laboured in our approach and work so hard to get the ball back. Cabaye in that number 10 role is so critical to us both on and off the ball as when we dont have it he is closing their midfielders down and causes mistakes.

Making Ashley look like employer of the year and all round good guy. Player loyalty from Bellamy good to see

Absolutely, just thinking of some positives if he goes. Hopefully we invest in 2 players in Jan and keep him.

Runs all day and intelligent on and off the ball. The anti-simpson we hoped he would be. Unreal fitness levels ( as have the rest of team at moment)

Aye it would be, hoping for draws in both games today also ( keep Swansea n Southampton far enough away and limit Spurs n Everton points)
