Rich Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 What was his reaction to the singing his name? Thought it was a nice touch. Looked like he was trying hard to hold back a big cheeky grin and waved towards the supporters, before carrying on with his business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Thankfully we got the result today, but I really couldn't understand why we went 4-4-2 when 4-3-3 had served us so well recently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Thankfully we got the result today, but I really couldn't understand why we went 4-4-2 when 4-3-3 had served us so well recently. Did seem odd especially as if anything it exposed Perch's lack of ball skills further in the middle of the park. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 It felt like: Krul Simpson Willi Colo Santon Perch Cabaye Jonas HBA Cisse Ba at times Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I think it was 4-3-3 with Ba being canny selfish and not playing on the left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Got to say, it was quite puzzling to see him deploy a 4-4-2. The 4-3-3 has been working brilliantly recently so don't really know why he felt the need to change the system today. I guess Pardew was trying to counteract the 5 in midfield for Bolton? Still though, we were well below par in the first half today. We weren't too bad but we were by no means good - could be down to fatigue from playing two games in such a short space of time or could be down to the tactics, I don't really know (could have even been a bit of both!). Pardew made the correct substitutions and at the right time though. Bringing Fergie on gave us that extra bit of energy we lacked in the first half and Ba was correctly substituted because he did look knackered and was ultimately not too much of a threat (unfortunately). All in all though, it was a fantastic result so I'm pretty happy. I'm sure we'll see the 4-3-3 back in action for Stoke btw. In the meantime, time for a nice rest for the players.

Cajun Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Can I change my poll vote to brilliant please? By no means perfect, the 4-4-2 seemed to have a negative impact today but I don't think you can dispute he has had a brilliant season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
