Mr Logic Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Last few games especially I have to concede I've been a bit harsh on him of late. Long may the improvement continue and no reason it shouldn't, if, as others have surmised, its due to our improved control of midfield and having another outlet on the opposite wing.

Mr Logic Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Pardew: Jonas Gutierrez in the form of his life by Lee Ryder, Evening Chronicle Oct 18 2011 ALAN PARDEW reckons that Jonas Gutierrez is playing some of the best football of his career at the moment - and that is leaving him with a major selection dilemma. The Argentine, who signed a new deal last month to extend his stay on Tyneside to 2015, was the star man against Tottenham, setting up Demba Ba for his fifth goal in three matches. His display came hot on the heels of a wonderful goal at Wolves to leave Pardew delighted. He told the Chronicle: “Jonas is in some of the best form I’ve seen from him. “Sometimes when players sign contracts, they just come off the pedal a little bit. “Jonas has gone the other way. I didn’t sign him, so maybe he’s got a little bit of belief that the manager here loves him and wants him to play well.” It means that summer signing Sylvain Marveaux – who was also wanted by Liverpool – has been left benched along with England Under-21 star Dan Gosling. Pardew added: “I feel so sorry for Sylvain and Dan Gosling at the minute, and one or two others. “They’ve worked really hard, and haven’t got a sniff. “I want to keep winning games, but obviously I would love to play them at some point. “Of the four midfield players, Jonas was the best.” Pardew also feels that Ba’s goal on Sunday against Spurs summed up the hard work-rate of his team. He said: “Demba had to make up about 40 yards to get to that position – he ran past two players. It was a great run by him.” Meanwhile, United have snubbed a loan offer from Derby for James Perch. The ex-Nottingham Forest captain is needed as defensive cover at St James’ Park. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Shows how much hes improving when he can play like that and very few mention it. Its just becoming expected now, some nice crosses also. One of our best players so far this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Swift Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Picked up the ball far too deep on too many occasions so he wasn't as threatening as usual, but he still had a good game and is very consistent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEEJ Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 It's incredible how much effort he puts in week in week out. Looks like he's brimming with confidence too, great to see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza ladra Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 As good as he's been this season, I think we'll see better performances once Ben Arfa is introduced into the starting 11. I'm pretty happy with Ryan Taylor staying back and defending. I loved Enrique's overlapping runs, but we're getting more out of Jonas this way.

I wonder if some people just praise him no matter what. Our best chance of the first half came via Jonas once again making a run down the left and crossing in for Best who missed from a yard out. You're missing it yeah. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Hey, I'm not disagreeing I might just miss it. Maybe I did and maybe it looked better on the telly but I dont recall him firing crosses in or getting to the bye line and whipping them in or bringing great saves out of the keeper.
