Krul definitely needs to work on his kicking, it's been terrible recently. Might be down to confidence though, he's still very young for a goalkeeper.

 

Whether or not Pardew is using the media well to motivate a player, or whether he'll piss him off more, is debatable - I don't know what sort of character Krul is.

I wonder if he's not concentrating on it as much with the new GK Coach - he had a very good relationship with the previous one apparently.

Very bizarre to single out Krul but not say a single word about Alan Smith's performance.

 

Much as I find Smith's contribution laughable, I don't think that would be clever or helpful either. But with a young player - particularly a goalkeeper who cannot influence 90% of the play - it's just moronic.

 

I'm reminded of the posts from a certain member on here about how Ashley supposedly felt Hughton was too pally with the players. Perhaps this is by design. :undecided:

I don't disagree, but in that case it seems a bit daft to criticise him for it continuing in a game where the tactics (either purposely or due to the midfield selection) were to hit it long every time. Especially on a cabbage patch.

He has 1 outstanding game out of 5 and the rest are full of mistakes. You just can't defend that.

 

WUM-tastic

sorry. krul was fantastic. his distribution to the other team was just what we needed.

The 'debate' here isnt whether he is playing badly. You do understand that dont you?

"krul, you're playing badly, but it's ok. it's not like this is your profession or anything. here, have a one of chris hughton's special lollies"

I haven't seen the Stevenage game, so can't comment on that, but I am more interested in how 4 out of 5 games he has featured in have been full of mistakes as you claim. He's not been a revelation or anything, but he has been quite decent deputising for Harper and I would say there's not much between them all things considered..

:facepalm: I didn't think it needed saying, but here goes. The problem people have here is that pardew has come out in the media and blasted Krul and basically putting significant blame on him for losing us the game.

He blamed the forwards too and the whole team in general, but nobody brings that up.
