Cajun Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 When you look at the facts today, you must admit he was poor. Still, I reckon he'll grab 2 at S'hampton. He wasn't poor, he scored 2 good goals. A couple of his finishes were poor though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 http://i.imgur.com/cDhQ0R5.png Finished this brilliantly well. Don't see how he can be criticised for such a marginal decision going against him. The other was obviously a massive fuckup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're fast becoming the worst poster, not just on here, but in the world. Congrats. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Wish we had an alternative to take the pressure off. Worry all you like but he starts every game he can with the options we've got upfront. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Feel for him, had it not been for two poor decisions we would not be debating this, he scored two tonight, ok they won't stand but he knows they should. No idea if that will help his confidence or not but Pardew needs to try and ensure it does. Use the fact he was robbed of two goals to fire him up.

Dave Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Wish we had an alternative to take the pressure off. Worry all you like but he starts every game he can with the squad we've got upfront. Gouffran when Ben Arfa is fit, that's all really. And I don't think it'd happen anyway tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see how he can be criticised for such a marginal decision going against him. The other was obviously a massive fuckup. he looks level on that screenshot. The first one I thought one of Cisse and/or Sissoko looked offside earlier in the build up but I've not seen replays or tv footage yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 His foot is over onto the dark patch of grass whilst the defender isn't quite touching it, which would mean he is indeed offside if the grass is level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I think he looks about half a foot offside on that screenshot, it's hardly conclusive like. Handy run and finish though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 The 1st goal was more onside than that. Sissoko was more or less a yard onside. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisMcQuillan Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Have to feel sorry for the lad. He must feel nothing's going right for him atm. His second 'goal' tonight was a world class poacher's finish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Is there a screenshot floating around of the first? i don't think Cisse was offside when Sissoko passed to him to bundle it in but do think one of them was earlier in the move when Sissoko was put clear.

Kanj Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 For all my criticism if I was Pardew I would be taking him to one side tonight, tell him to ignore the ridiculous decisions, tell him how intelligent his run was for the first and how quality his movement and finish was for the second. Really try to hammer home that he did score two goals and if it wasn't for s**** officiating he would have practically won us the tie. Also praise him for not letting his head drop after the first was ruled out. We should be using this game to really boost his confidence as much as possible. The reason I am so critical is because I know he is far better than he has shown this season. Keepers don't get to his shots in the positions he has gotten into so he needs to improve that side of the game in his current form. He is capable of so much more which is why he has been more frustrating than someone like Williamson who I know has performed to the near the level he is capable. This is a top top post man. Exactly how I feel and I'd like to this Pards (who I rate as a man-manager) will be doing tonight, tomorrow and until the next match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 FFS the ref is ahead of both Sissoko and the last man! In fact, he's at the end of the NEXT grass strip too. Madness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
