He looked the player we came to love last season.

 

:dowie:

 

Surely you mean three (or four) seasons ago..? Last season he looked shot for the latter half.

you mean while he was going a solid job out of position in cm while we were ripping the league apart  :idiot2:

The thing with Jonas is you can't turn on him for real. Hate the fact that Pardew persists with him, but man...what a likeable character he is.

 

His determination and fight is fantastic. It's not been enough or on show this season, but today was trademark Jonas. Shit crossing and working his bollocks off.

Jonas has never been in the team for his end product, it's his other qualities which have kept him in the side. He covers a hell of a lot of ground during 90 mins, tracks back, puts in the tackles, then carries the ball forward from defence. He's got nowhere near the ability of Marveaux, but his commitment is a massive quality in it's own right.

You expect a wide player/midfielder to chip in with 10 goals before you consider them decent squad members? Well, I guess we have different expectations? His crossing was atrocious you say? Did you miss his left footed cross that was perfect for Cisse on the near post? He's not just a grafter, don't see why people convince themselves he is, just because he's the new scapegoat..

 

Not what I said.

 

I said that if he DID score 10 a season, I could forgive him being dreadful at crossing and passing. If he could put a decent cross in, then I could forgive the lack of goals.

 

The problem with Jonas is that by and large he doesn't score and doesn't create.

 

Also, one good cross does not a good crosser make. He tried to put in shitloads of them, and one found its man. But even a stopped clock is right twice a day. Give me 20 crosses and by luck one of them will find one of my players, you have to look at the bigger picture. Jonas can't cross for shit.

 

Still p*ssed off about the team selection mate? :pow:

 

If Pardew had gone with my line-up, we'd have won 4-0. :lol:

It wasn't only guti having bad crosses though, think our crosses was overall bad and not even trying to hit our men in the box. Far too many times it was aimed at first post when our attackers in the box was located at the backside.

 

:yikes:

Think I said this in the Pardew thread but his worst form always seems to come together with the clubs worst form. For that reason I had not written him off and I look forward to seeing if we can get the old Jonas back for the rest of the season.
