Jayson Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 As said Shola did more last week & Benny doesnt seem to want to play on the wing. So Obertan isnt relevant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto2005 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Does seem bizarre that Pardew's patience with Obertan/Raylor/Simpson seems to be endless but HBA gets dropped after a pretty anonymous 45 minutes against one of the better sides in the league Mascherano example pardew i don't understand why For best why not but shola and obertan Doing a poor job isn't he.

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Ben Arfa would be more than happy to play out wide imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Shola offered more in 45 mins last week than Ben Arfa. And yet we scored no more goals in the second half than we did in the first. We had more chances - shame we couldn't take them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Still think putting him on the wing would be a silly thing to do. Especially away from home. Our fullbacks need protection. He wouldn't be disciplined enough to cover Simpson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 He'll be gone as soon as he gets the chance and I don't blame him. Norwich give away penalties for fun when players run at them and we left this bloke out completely, I mean Christ almighty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I think being dropped today was more about wanting Shola on as a target man and offering more protection on set pieces, it didn't work but was a gamble Pards had to try. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I'm livid about this. Really infuriating, we have a player that can open up defences, especially shit ones like Norwich. A player who can bring others into the game and he is left out for Obertan or Shola. Absolutely appalling decision making from Pardew. I'm attempting to control myself about it but it's so fucking annoying. If we had to play Obertan or Shola I could understand it, if B Arfa was injured or if we just didn't have him. But how on earth is he not getting a game when he's so much better on the ball than anyone else in our team? It's like the Santon situation, not getting games over Raylor? Just inexplicably poor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
