Wullie Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 It's up to the manager to get the best out of his players and he's failing. There's only so much blame you can try and pass onto a midfielder who likes to pass the ball when you're playing so many balls straight from goalkeeper to centre forward.

Ronaldo Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 6th with a team patched up with Championship dog shite and he's failing to get the best out of his players. Right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 5 wins in 17 is fucking atrocious. You know it and I know it but you've painted yourself into a corner with this mug and won't admit that the job he's done since mid December has been very poor. "Patched up" He's picked Danny Simpson in every single game since he was appointed man, that's not patching up, he rates him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Five o Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Cabaye have played bad lately, but i can not for the life of me blame him. He was okay+ first half against Arsenal, and s*** second. We play a direct long ball game most of the time, we are not playing at his strength at all. We might as well get Cattermole to play in his place if we are going to play that kind of football. Can sell Ba and Cisse to, Ameobi and Best are better in the air. Pardew and Newcastle are buying one kind of players, and playing a completely other tactic. That's funny. I thought that Ba had the best goals-to-games ratio in the league and Cisse has 2 in 3 starts. Yeah, its true. But in the last games, have it looked like he have thrived with the football we have played? We have slowly started with much more long balls, and Ba has faded. If we play the ball on the ground, he gets the chances, but he is no target man tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 5 wins in 17 is f***ing atrocious. You know it and I know it but you've painted yourself into a corner with this mug and won't admit that the job he's done since mid December has been very poor. "Patched up" He's picked Danny Simpson in every single game since he was appointed man, that's not patching up, he rates him. He rates him within the context of a squad he didn't assemble. Not the same as rating him per se. I didn't want Pardew to be appointed, neither did you. Only one of us has painted ourselves into a corner, mate.

mrmojorisin75 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 5 wins in 17 interesting to see that in black and white as it's been painfully obvious for a long time we're riding the wave of our good start to the season and teams have worked us out to an extent if we finish lower than 6th this season he's fucked up, no 2 ways about it, especially when you consider he's added a 9m striker to the books mid season and the most talented player at the club seems to have fit fitness and form for the run in no excuses imo, plenty of the clubs around us have average-poor players in their squads too, it's the job of a manager to balance it all out and succeed ffs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool and Chelsea are either side of us if you hadn't noticed. Name some of these players from the clubs around us to support you point. Our weak links are far weaker than those of the mentioned clubs, and you know it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 aye, around us i meant norwich, sunderland, everton, stoke etc., liverpool are only "around" us because of their manager, chelsea for different reasons i'll clarify: aside from manyoo, citeh, spurs, liverpool, chelsea, arsenal "plenty of the clubs around us have average-poor players in their squads too, it's the job of a manager to balance it all out and succeed ffs" don't start with "they're not around us", the whole point of this is they're catching because we've started slowing up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 OK, for the third time: name some of these players worse than Simpson and Williamson who are starting on a regular basis for the clubs around us. You need to look at the table, btw. Norwich and Stoke are 12th and 13th, man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwich and Stoke are 12th and 13th, man. tbf overall, for all sunderland have better than simpson (just, in bardsley) and williamson they don't have a midfielder or forward or, purely imo a centre half (when taylors fit) who'd get in our starting XI Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwich and Stoke are 12th and 13th, man. i never said anyone had anyone worse than simpson, i said they have average-poor players madras hit the nail on the head, none of the teams i've mentioned have a ba, a colo, or a hba either and there's only 8 points between us and stoke in 13th i don't see what's so hard about this, i'll say it again: it's down to the manager to find solutions which he's presently not doing and hasn't been for a while now - play ferguson LB and santon RB for example if he's costing us on a "regular basis" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Has to be given licence to go forward, Tiote can do the holding role we don't need two holding CM's, he is our creative CM and needs to be played as such. Let Yohan and Benny feed the strikers, Tiote and Jonas will do the leg work to protect the backfour. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Aye, find solutions. If only it was as simple as that. Mariappa and Ridgewell were probably the solutions. Not his fault we didn't invest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not his fault we didn't invest. so what, just doing nothing and repeatedly playing a player you identify as a weak link is OK is it? raylor has played all over the pitch, at the expense of our most creative attacking outlet in home games against shite for example, except for RB don't tell me he doesn't have choices man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 where we are right now, again the concern is that pardew isn't finding the answers to keep us there come 10 games time, our form in points and play isn't great and everyone basically seems to be hoping HBA can do the lot on his own i'm not one who ever thought a CL challenge was remotely realistic fwiw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maintaining that form for the whole of the season would probably see us finish around 10th, which was the best I thought we could hope for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
