Deuce

What a stupid fucking post.

Very true, it is like a viper pit tonight like. By the way, you're very mental. As insufferable as he is generally, he's entitled to his opinion. I'd rather hear why he thinks Pards should get another year than dismiss his post with a fitting, well-placed gif, as I'm wont to do.

Di Canio owned him from the first minute to the last. When Pardew went to shake hands with the grinning fascist at the final whistle I half expected him to drop to one knee. Regular Neville Chamberlain this Pardew.

What has he done to prove he deserves next season though? We're barely staving off relegation, bowed out in the Europa, and just got embarrassed by Sunderland at home. And somehow, he's managed to make our squad full of objectively very good players look like a L1 side all season. Plenty of managers have been fired for far less. Pardew's not magically going to become a good manager during the offseason and steer us to the CL next year.

Ban this sick filth.

Ideally, imo: Sissoko Cabaye Marveaux Ben Arfa Gouffran Cisse That should be a devastating front-6 on their best day.

Clearly because the Womping Willo hasn't seen the field for any sustained period recently.

I can't see him replacing Pardew with anyone better though. Bargain basement Mike, dishing out on a decent continental coach? Exactly. What if they ask Carr for his advice on this front ?. See no reason why we couldn't go and get a bargain coach to go with our bargain players. Bargain doesn't mean bad by any means. Aye, Southampton Sunderland coach is a good example.

Nail on head. I mean, it's fairly obvious at this point that Pardew simply has no fucking clue how to install a logical shape or proper tactics.

Well, we'd certainly put the ball in the back of the net.

While we have Carr to handle player acquisitions, I get the feeling our "secret weapon" when it comes to managerial searches is the guy who scrubs the urinals at SJP.

2 of them were penalties and the other was scored against 9 men. But yeah, he seems to have improved quite a bit, from what I've seen of him recently. I'll never complain about a little stats-padding. His movement and hold-up play especially have improved a ton since moving to AZ. Likely because, unlike the U.S. national team, they're a squad that values attacking play.

Might as well re-sign Nolan and Barton in that case, ditch Sissoko, Cisse, and Cabaye. Clearly not cut-out for Pardewball.

Jozy Altidore with a hattrick for AZ today. Took him all of 37 minutes, brings his total to 28 on the season. Don't expect him to remain at AZ much longer, move to a bigger Eredivise side would be smart.

This. He's not a false 9 or even an attacking midfielder. His best play at Toulouse came when he could play smack in the middle of the park, linking up between a stiff holding midfielder (Capoue) and the attack.

Even if that is the case (I'm not convinced it is, as Everton play much prettier football than most), it'd still mean he's grossly outperforming the likes of Pardew/Big Sam playing the same tactics on a far smaller budget.

The players, the size of the club and the fans....is that so hard to imagine if he fancy a different challenge. If he left Everton, I feel like it'd be for an even bigger challenge (i.e. ManU, City, Chelsea, etc.) What if he chooses to leave at the end of this season and none of those jobs are available. I dont think it's that hard to imagine he might fancy our club. I hope you're right, but I just can't see it. He is Everton football...to drag him away from there would require more stability (and a greater guarantee of CL football) than he'd find here.

He's not just responsible though, he's accountable. This. Buck stops at Pardew.
