TRon Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 What did Cabaye do btw? Read on here that he was mouthing off at Pardew, but I missed it at the game. From what I gather, the story is pretty much this: When Shola came on, he told Cabaye to push up into a position just behind Ba, ie. it was instructions to attack. When Gosling came on though, Cabaye was then pretty much told to hang back and let Gosling play in an advanced role. Yohan was understandably unimpressed. Nothing major to worry about imo. According to the reports in the local rags Cabaye was playing in 5 different positions at various points yesterday. Probably exaggeration but he probably didn't know whether he was coming or going by the time 90 mins were up. I just hope the players aren't losing confidence in the manager's football philosophy - whatever it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked like he played in a advanced role to the left, in stead of in the hole were he should play for a more broad specter of distribution. He didn't link up with HBA as much as he should be doing. He'll be back in the middle with Tiote when Ryan Taylor is back. Which hasn't worked for a good while. Guthrie looks more suited to that role.

Taylor Swift Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Why does Pardew sound like such a pussy? We wouldn't have been able to win 5 games? Well, no shit, if you insist on launching balls to two strikers who like it to their feet. We won't 4 if you keep this shit up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Fwiw, I think it was the Chelsea game and the way they pounced on the counter with us exposed that really started the negative approach from Pardew. Since then we've been a lot more conservative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Reasons for our poor football Taylor got injured Afcon Injuries Williomson Simpson Fuck off, the reasons why we play piss poor football lie in the dugout and the feet of our league one manager. But hey we are sixth. 6th. Top 6. Far too many excuses and heads in the sands. Those that date to criticise the manager's tactics are unreasonable, too demanding, obviously have agendas, couldnt care less we are 6th, and not just any old 6th but TOP SIXTH. We generally get outpassed and tacticslly outplayed in the majority of our games be it home or away or the league or cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but we're ONLY sixth - in a season when many expected us to struggle and many more tipped us for relegation. Surely if we had a manager who knew what he was doing we'd be in the top three and probably unbeaten. Personally I'd rather be in the bottom three and playing the beautiful football inspired by the purist Martinez at Wigan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 You go down the list of current League 1 managers, HTT, and tell me which ones you think would have managed this squad to 6th after three-quarters of the season. This should be a laugh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
