thomas Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Frustrating as both Shola and Gosling definitely won't be here next year yet they still make the bench. I think it would literally kill me if he was here in a playing capacity next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Watched some 11/12 footage before and seeing how well he was playing then is pretty damn sad. He was in great physical and mental shape with a lovely balance to his game. Worked his bollocks off and used to move the ball more intelligently too, I'm not sure if it's because the team played at a higher tempo then but he kept the momentum of attacks going by playing a lot of quick 1-2s, something we've rarely seen since the start of 12/13.

themanupstairs Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 If he'd finished that sitter at Norwich, he'd still be in the team. His stats haven't been boosted by a goal, so Pardew finds easy to blame him and drop him. What a mess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Made the mistake of watching a compilation of his just now, fucking hell, he's really being frozen out by Alan Pardew? Ridiculous man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any one of them had gone in, Pardew would've somehow been happy. Amazing that HBA has to score to get into the team, while he keeps playing strikers who go without scoring for years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 What a waste of talent, one of the worst things to come out of the Pardew era, sure he does himself no favours sometimes and is not completely blameless, but his mismanagement is there for all to see. A good manager would have him on a strict training regime and be working hard on his confidence levels (see also Cisse) not chucking him on the pitch on 80 mins and saying "Give me some magic" then berating him for not winning you the game when you're already 2-0 down and dropping him.

Mattoon Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Any manager, in any walk of life, worth his salt will nurture the best qualities out of the staff at his disposal, not rely on the self driven ones to make him look good and blame the others for any/all failings. As a manager I wouldn't expect to last two minutes in my job with that attitude and I wouldn't expect my staff to want to work for me. This is no different.

Get a grip. Soz. He's a brilliant footballer and one of my favourites i've ever had the chance to watch. Ruined by the dipshit we have as a manager because he doesn't have a tackle in him.

Ronaldo Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Nowt to do with his inconsistency in the final third then? I do think Hatem's probably our best player and I like watching him too but people go on like he's this goal/chance machine whose only failing is a refusal to track back.

Jordan Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 He's inconsistent yes but it's also the type of player he is. He's never going to show up every week but you persist with him because he can change the game in a blink of an eye. He has to be MOTM every game to stay in the side under Pardew which isn't fair considering dross like Santon, Sissoko and Shola have an unlimited amount of chances under him.

FFS He ain't playing because his performances when he has haven't warranted it and others have knuckled down and done well. He's a flat track bully whose best game this season was against 9 man Stoke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
