I agree with Felipao. Managers shouldn't show passion.

 

:lol: You think fistpumping and yelling at the oppositions manager after a penalty decision is the right way to go? I have no problem with what Carver and he did earlier when they had a go at the Shitelands bench. But to do that before or after a goal is disgusting behaviour.

 

Honestly and as a manager he's got to set an example. 

 

"Stay calm lads, I'm going to having a fucking go at O'Neil as soon as we score, leave it to me."

We are not focusing on "the next game only" anymore. Our focus is to finish 4th-6th... and that's why Pardew want to play a "balanced" team with Ryan Taylor. He's afraid. He wants a balanced performance who gives us 3 points. If he starts Ben Arfa, Ben Arfa will give us pace, flair and attacking movements, and the opposition will focus more on him... But we will also lose the "defensive balance", at least on that flank. We will create more chances with Ben Arfa on the pitch but we will be weaker when we defend. We will create less chances with Taylor on the pitch but we will be stronger when we defend. Pardew needs to gamble more. He's to afraid. If we want to win, we have to gamble.

The Pardew bashing is f***ing beyond ridiculous.

 

It seems a lot better reasoned than the support posts tbh.

 

agreed tbh. most criticisms are rather well explicated with specific, detailed, well reasoned arguments. then people come along and go "we're sixth!" "what a load of nonsense!" "f***ing beyond ridiculous".

 

Seems a relatively simple point to make. We had an amazing start to the season & had one of the best defences in the league, people have said around Chelsea is where we lost momentum a bit. Thats also where we coincidentally lost one of our main defenders & had to go a period of time with no Cb's.

 

We still followed that period by outplaying Man united, taking 4 points off them this season before losing our key striker and actually improved our league position in that time. Now people are coming out with "No faith" in the manager ? Be serious. Hes clearly earnt time, 80% of this nonsense is due to Ben Arfas situation and thats very debatable as his thread shows.

Joking aside, Sifu is right. Saylor was a massive massive blow, as was not bringing in extra backup for him. We currently have one defender who is a nailed on starter who can play comfortably with a ball at their feet and it stops us from being able to build from the back and bring the midfield in more. That's down to those above Pardew. In some repects his hands are tied but I don't see why he's persisted with the Ben Arfa nonsense. The whole he gives away possession thing is guff when you see other players losing it by punting forwad like they're at Twickenham.

I can understand why people get frustrated by our style of play AT TIMES but there seems to be a handful of people on here who are just willing him to fail and to jump on any mistake.

Any level of derision and scorn is acceptable so long as you preface it with "I'm of course happy that we're in sixth, but" because that makes it objective and unbiased.

He behaved like a total cockend today on the touchline. He's doing a good job but the bloke is a fucking dick.

Pardew is an average limited manager who has us playing awful football far too often, our initial setup today didn't suit any of our players and we already knew that but he still went with it. 

 

The second half was much better but he's still repeating the same mistakes.

The second half is a glimpse of how we could play if we were a bit more adventurous and trusted our gifted players over the workhorses. At the end of the day that's what will separate us from teams like Wolves and Sunderland.

Dont understand why people are having a go at him for winding MON up , that little bouncing freak does it all the time.

 

Looks like it was in retaliation to something, maybe the handbags earlier.
