Aye, right. We've only been disappointing twice this season.
I thought this was the Pardew out thread ? I can`t see how Pardew is to blame for Krul making game changing errors, surely that would be down to him or the goal keeping coach ? Williamson being twice as shit as last year if that is possible, Pardew does not control the finances, surely that is Ashleys fault ? Cabaye playing with a groin propblem, did Pardew kick him in it ? Colo getting injured and then after that getting a red ? Pardew again ? Toite for the past few seasons has needed a run of 4-5 games to start performing, hes been injured and suspended. Cisse can`t score without pin point service, without Toite and Cabaye on top form that hasn`t happened. I could go on and on. I just don`t see it as simple as Pardew needs replacing. I see it as a crap summer transfer window, some shit individual errors, bad concentration and a bit of bad luck.
Pardew can't be absolved as much as I agree with the comments on investment (A main and major source of our decline) and the role of individuals. Our squad as a whole is capable of producing better; more than a handful of our players have dwindled this season and Pardew and tactics need to be held culpable to a clear degree.
