Its our tactics that are limiting both him and Ba, you can't have two poachers who can make all the right movement upfront and end up hoofing the ball to them, we need to keep it on the ground and have the likes of Cabaye and Ben Arfa feed them.
he actually won a corner. can't believe there were tossers in the match thread having a go at him for that.
I know he won the corner. It was still one player too many though, and for that I believe Pardew would rather bench him in favour of more direct 'team players'. Not saying I agree with it at all.
That why Pardew is a fucking idiot..the whole purpose of the game is to play with the ball not hoof it and attempt to score in 3 touches.
What the fuck was he playing in the first half? you start to lose faith in a manager when you have a team with good players who can actually play football and strikers willing to make the movement upfront and yet were resorting to hoof ball tactics like some sort of sunday league side..really pissed off with his tactics up late, needs to sort this shit out..
