WDDW
So you'd praise Pardew for the 5th too then?
Eh?
You think Cisse is the reason for WDDW? That's what you've implied. Other than the one goal he's scored in those 4 matches, he hasn't held up the ball, made any passes of note or made space for other players. Every single game Mitro has come on he's been involved, holding up the ball, laying it off and being an absolute menace. With Cisse alone up front we're practically a man down, he just can't play the lone striker role and he never has for us. The only time he came close to this was when we played practically 3 up top and he was the one in the middle.
You can't just look at the past 4 results, Cisse has started them, and then imply 'that's what he brings to the team'. Come on.
Mitro very rarely plays well when he starts and is slow as fuck
