TherealnorthernTOON Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 tbf, loven was one of our better players going forward. HBA was quite shite and I was really dissapointed in his lack of getting into positions to get the ball. Pardew seems kinda forced to play him though as he is a fans favourite and a really good technical player. But he has to start wanting it more or he should be benched again. Might be playing on the wing just suits his lack of workmanship more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I suppose Ben Arfa is injured because i can't think which f**king alternative universe exists where by someone takes off Ben Arfa but keeps Lovenkrands on. I must also assume Santon is crocked because if he's that turbosh1t that Raylor stayed on the pitch instead of him we've really signed a dud there, like. Are you serious? Ben Arfa was a total spectator today, the game passed him by, he was awful. You might hate Lovenkrands and long to hang out the back of Ben Arfa, but Lovenkrands was much more effective than Hatem today like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be playing on the wing just suits his lack of workmanship more. Ben Arfa always looks like he wants the ball, in fact he wants it too much and ends up hanging onto it too long if anything. Comparing his effort to Lovenkrands is pointless. HBA is playing in a much more congested area of the pitch. If Lovenkrands could do anything with the ball in that sort of area other than shit his pants I'd be surprised. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Chelsea-defender-David-Luiz-should-have-seen-red-fumes-Newcastle-manager-Alan-Pardew-article838615.html Furious Pardew slams referee as David Luiz escapes a red card Furious Newcastle boss Alan Pardew confronted referee Mike Dean after he failed to dismiss David Luiz – as Chelsea lifted the pressure on manager Andre Villas-Boas. Pardew went to the referee’s dressing room at half-time to query his failure to red card the Brazilian defender for hauling down Demba Ba on the edge of the visitors’ box. There were only four minutes gone in an incident-packed clash and Pardew believed Dean’s decision was crucial to a result that saw Chelsea leapfrog above Newcastle into fourth place. Goals from Didier Drogba, sub Salomon Kalou and Daniel Sturride gave Chelsea a decisive victory in a game in which Frank Lampard had a first half penalty saved by Toon keeper Tim Krul. But Pardew said: ”I thought Luiz was going to be sent off. “Demba Ba was in on goal and there was no cover. I was really angry about it. “The referee said at half-time that Ba didn’t have control of the ball. But I don’t understand that – he was in on goal and he was bundled over. “I will have to have a look at the rule book on that one. It’s a sending off, it’s as simple as that. “That changed the game. I don’t know if any analyst would look at that and say it was not a sending off. He was free on goal, he was in behind Luiz and he brings him down. “I don’t understand the logic of referees when that happens. I don’t want to get myself into trouble, but I genuinely thought that the referee got that wrong. “It had a crucial effect on the game because I don’t think Chelsea would have played the way they did if they had 10 men for 86 minutes.” Villas-Boas insisted that his side deserved a break after several big decisions went against them recently. He said: “It was a major incident. Mike Dean decided not to send him off – and decided it was a yellow. It was a foul, but I felt it was only a yellow card offence. Newcastle feel differently. “Maybe Dean’s decision went for us and Alan Pardew and his players weren’t happy. But we have had a lot of decision go against Chelsea this season and no-one has made a fuss.” Chelsea’s bench could not hide their delight as they stretched their lead. Pardew was less than impressed by Chelsea fitness coach Jose Mario Rocha, who celebrated Kalou’s strike in front of the Newcastle bench. He said: “The manager apologised for that. He carried himself with dignity today because he was under a lot of pressure, their manager. “But his staff let him down today and I am sure he will be having a little word in his ear.” Villas-Boas, who again came under fire as Chelsea were knocked out of the Carling Cup on Tuesday by Liverpool, added: “It was unfortunate. “Football is emotion and sometimes people lose control of where they are. “As soon as it happened, I went to Alan and the technical staff to say sorry. It is not a major incident, it is not bad behaviour “It was a win against the third place team in their home, one of the best defences in the Premier League and it is a win that nobody was expecting. It was a big, massive win.” Villas-Boas revealed Nicolas Anelka and Brazil defender Alex have have had transfer requests accepted by the club and will be free to leave in January. Anelka has been marginalised from the first team following the signing last season of Spain striker Fernando Torres and the development of young England forward Daniel Sturridge. Alex’s opportunities at Chelsea have been limited after the arrival of compatriot Luiz in last season’s January transfer window. Villas-Boas said: “The conversation was fair and very, very frontal and direct with the players. “The players have shown their interest in leaving the club, they have put in transfer requests for quite some time. “They are top, top professionals – their professionalism and integrity is never in question – but at this moment and with the recent from and results, we have decided just to try to get the group together, and we have decided to assign different training times for Anelka and Alex.” It was some night at Villa Park as champions Manchester United won 1-0 thanks to Phil Jones’ first goal for the club on 20 minutes. But United lost Javier Hernandez, who was taken off with a serious-looking ankle injury and in the second half. Aston Villa’s Jermaine Jenas had to leave on stretcher as well, also with an ankle injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
womblemaster Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 poor today. Obertan was useless in 2nd half. cheksea were poor and we completely messed it up. why is he starting lovenkrands ahead of ferguson or santon. Criminal management. Pardew failed today to win this game. YEs the players were ave too, but ultimately pardew failed tactically. Am angry, his mistakes are bugging me.

Guest BooBoo Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 That's rubbish about Chelsea being poor. They defended exceptionally and cut us apart a number of times with fast counter attacks. Yes we hit the goal frame 3 times but they missed a penalty and a host of one on ones. They were the better team but then they should be. They're a Champions League team who could call on £70 million worth of subs. I thought we gave them a good game and the wcoreline was lop sided but don't kid yourself that it was a game there for the taking. It was always going to be, and so proved to be a tough game.

Dr Venkman Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Don't think he got a great deal wrong today. I personally wouldn't have played loven but he actually did quite well offensively I thought. The HBA sub was the right one. The only issue for me was how long it took for them to sort out the left back bumming we were getting. Would like to see santon play but clearly he isn't showing it in training. Have they sorted that out yet? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATB Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I am concerned - hopefully it´s just because the big disappointment from yesterday rather than something that will sustain. First and foremost. Why did he not do anything about the left flank yesterday when it clearly wasn´t working? It was quite embarrassing that nothing happened and it is embarrassing that he just let Raylor play all the time no matter what is happening. I like Obertan, in the opposite to others it seems, but I hate when managers favorite players as it seems he has done with Obertan for exampel. No matter how bad he is, he is playing. He wasn´t the biggest problem yesterday, but he should have been subbed, not Lövet. Ben Arfa wasn´t working yesterday. But why, WHY can´t Pardew not play him at on of the flank? To succeed you need a good team. But you also has to have good individual players and when we lack that in many departments we absolutely have to play the few we have as much a possible. so what is it when he can´t play at the flank when he has done that a lot and when Lövet, Sammy, Obertan isn´t working? Pardew has done a lot of great things. But I´m starting to be a little bit concerned about a few things. Hopefully it just our personally problems that really dosn´t leave him with great options and that it as soon as possible will be addressed and that this problems will disappear - hopefully!
