I disagree he is very poor, obviously at this very moment not many will agree because the last 2 hours is the entire history of Newcastle United until the next game.

 

He is like, and I'm not judging that off today, I've never, ever rated him. He backs off and doesn't have a clue when to actually make a challenge. The only things he has going for him as a defender are his physical attributes - he is strong and above-average in the air... His reading of the game and positional sense leave an incredible amount to be desired.

It's true, like. We'll never get anywhere with players like Steven Taylor consistently in the team.

Part of me wants to know the depressing statistic of how many games we've been in a leading position and not gone on to win the game under Pardew's brief tenure so far.

Still think Taylor is better than Williamson?

On this evidence, no. But there's not a great deal in it at CB.

What else could he have done? Apart from start Taylor right wing which is much the muchness.

 

 

He loaned out a right winger without replacing him.

 

We aren't supposed to discuss his abject failing in the team strenghtening dept in January.

Some kneejerk reactions in here again.  Could have done better with the subs and starting line-up but can't blame him for some of the dreadful defending for both everton goals.

You could blame him for the defending, he changed the defence.  :lol:

Could've played the lad we had on the bench that played right mid for large swathes of last season too. Daft to be chopping and changing your settled back 4.

Don't see much wrong with what he did today. Understand why he went with Simpson and Saylor, unfortunately for him, Saylor was just shit.

I've defended him alot of this past few weeks, but he got it spectacularly wrong today.

 

It was obvious from early on that it was a 4-4-2, with Simpson on the right wing, and it completely nullified his threat. So what does he do? When Enrique gets injured, he moves Simpson to his second most inffectual position :lol: Throw in a bit of Lovenkrands wing action and we've got the perfect fuck up.

 

At one point today, the team on the pitch was:

 

              Harper

Taylor  Willi  Colo  Simpson

Loven  Nolan  Tiote  Jonas

          Ameobi  Best

 

It's almost laughable.
