Deuce Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I don't like it anymore than the next guy. But if Pards is intent on playing two up-top, who else should it be? Ranger? Sammy? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I don't hate the man. I hate what he represents. The fact that we have used him so much this season is a perfect summary to why we are where we are. Almost felt sorry for him in a way today. He in no way has the attributes to play on the wing. I don't care what people think about Obertan or Sammy but either would have been a better option. All comes down to the same point. FUCK OFF PARDEW.

huss9 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 really lazy today. at one point in the first half he made a short pass forward to a team mate 10 yards into our half then just stood and watched ratrher than bomb on forward into the box or move out to the wing to provide another option Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 He wasn't terrible today tbh. He was like, he was a crock of shit and shouldn't even be making the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 He should only ever be used as a 20 minute substitute. He should never play from the start. His goal record is piss poor for a striker. He shouldn't even be called a striker. He's a good penalty taker but he offers very little threat as a striker. It's a joke that he is our second choice striker. We need to bring in two quality strikers to push Shola down to 4th choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Outperformed any of the other wingers that played for us today. Be angry with the manager for starting him or the board for not getting other options. He used his ;imited attributes to good effect in the first half I though. Would have made sense for him to come off for Perch rather than Marveaux. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 He put in some good work in the first half, like everyone else it went to pieces in the second. Obviously he shouldn't be starting games for us, but our other forward options aren't that great either TBH. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samag Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 At the end of the day he not good enough, odd goals here and there are just not enough. Should have been replaced years ago, but efforts to replace him have resulted in signing like Ranger and Xico, which means we have more years of him than we really should have. Needs to be given a free transfer in the summer along with several more of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to bring in two quality strikers to push Shola down to 4th choice. In addition to two CBs (if Colo leaves) and a winger who can cross. Also a new manager. And a new owner.

B-more Mag Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I think people are losing sight of the fact that he can ride a bike and eat an apple at the same time. We need this in a time of crisis. Should he play football for us again? No. Should he eat our apples and ride our bikes? Yes, yes, yes! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tollemache Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 As Ian W says, he looked ok early on along with the rest of the side. We all lost our shit later on but he's not especially to blame for that. Have we got to the bottom of Perch for Marveaux yet? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 thought he was terrible all game, lazy as fuck, would pass ball then just stand there or jog towards box Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyn davies Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 thought he was terrible all game, lazy as f***, would pass ball then just stand there or jog towards box no change there then,seems to be his normal game, get rid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SweMatt Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 It says everything about the club and management that he was starting yesterday. The day he is not in our squad anymore I will drink myself silly on champagne. Mind you, I have said that for ten years which makes the bottle very cold by now.

Gallowgate Toon Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 There were just enough options yesterday for him to not start, but he gets played as a right winger. Even Ryan Taylor said he can't play full matches as well. Really poor management. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest H09 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I'm adamant he is only starting because Pardew feels guilty stopping him going to the African Cup of Nations, or he's made some sort of deal, stay behind and play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
