I know what you mean but he's been immense so far.
I lay the blame for his decline squarely at Pardew's door (and there's a good pile of s*** outside that particular door already).
If you're an accountant and get told to go and work as a surgeon then it's inevitable you are going to look a bit average. Gouffran was never a defensive winger in a million years.
That melt Pardew needs publically outing for the fraud he is but he just keeps on getting away with it.
He's still playing as a defensive winger, just at a lower level
Not in the way Pardew had him playing. He was rarely anywhere near the opposition box.
