I like what he's trying to do.  I we're going to plat 433 or 4231 its important the full backs get forward to provide width. Hope Enrique stays but if not he'll need replacing and in my view simpson should be a back-up so a top RB is needed. On top of that we need at least one more striker.

My dad had that lot on the radio on the way to the WBA game. I heard Macdrunkard have a right go at Sammy Ameobi for 'smiling like a cheshire cat despite not being picked for the squad.'

 

'That's what's wrong with the modern game' - apparently. :lol:

 

:lol:

 

Eh?

Just posted in the players in public thread about seeing Pardew on both Thursday night and last night in Puerto Banus, but it maybe should have been in here? Apologies if it should, but I don't know how to edit it and put it in here  :blush:

Exactly. In his day players would shed a tear if they weren't picked to play or be on the bench.

Now I finally understand his comments from after the Liverpool game when he said we lacked "je ne sais quoi". He was basically saying that we didn't have enough frogs in the team.

Pardew is contemplating a 4-4-1-1 formation with Hatem Ben Arfa or Cabaye playing ‘in the hole’ behind a lone striker – probably Demba Ba.

 

He also wants his team to adopt a quicker, more fluid style – and will look to end the direct style that United employed when Andy Carroll was still at the club.

That 4-4-1-1 formation is pretty much this:

 

                Tiote    Cabaye

 

Marveaux                            N'Zogbia

 

                    Ben Arfa

 

                        Ba

 

It's a 4-2-3-1 when we attack, and 4-4-1-1 when we defend as the two wingers drop back.

 

Sexy.

Nice line up, shame that NUFC have said Charlie is a bit of a mercenary and will not be pursuing his signature.

Reckon we could really do with a winger on the right.

 

As great as Barton was last season, he'd be the obvious weak link in a front six with his mobility and pace not his strongest attributes. That and we need a balanced side.

More likely IMO:

 

                  Cabaye      Tiote

 

Marveaux          Ben Arfa        Barnetta

 

                              Ba

Is Marveaux actually any better than Jonas?

 

A very good question and (of course) time will tell but you have to feel Pardew intends on playing Marveaux in the first team.
