tmonkey Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 This may be a minor point, but...was Jonas injured at the end? Why did Pardew sub him for Gosling? An unfit, rusty central midfielder who has been out of the game for nearly a year, thrown on out of position on the left wing. I know Jonas picked up a knock earlier on, but he looked to have recovered. Reason I mention it is because Gosling looked like a fish-out-of-water when he lost the ball cheaply in their half in the 90th/91st minute, which started the move from which Sunderland scored. Hence, what was the need to give Gosling a run out? This wasn't a friendly, there's no need to throw on unfit players (and out of position) in the dying moments of such a tight game. Or have I missed something here? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or have I missed something here? You've missed the fact that Gosling's run was a similar one to Gutierrez made throughout the game (i.e. through about three players) and also missed the fact that it was quite clearly our throw in and a diabolical call from the linesman to award a Sunderland throw.

Ronaldo Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 He's seen Gosling in training for the last few weeks. He's far better equipped to make that decision than we are to speculate about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Crooks Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Glad to see the lad get a run out tbh. From those minutes alone I have inifinitely more confidence in him than Smith Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what to make of that tbh, we've had previous managers make what look strange changes as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
