ATB Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I got nothing against Perch. But I have started to pay a little bit more attention at him to try and solve why he starts and I must say that I still can´t answer that question. He´s nothing specially with the ball, in fact he loses it in dangerous situations, and even in the defensive work (the reason he is playing I think) he tend to go missing, take dangerous free kicks etc. I just can´t understand why he has become the most important player for Pardew. Anita should definitely play that role. And against Soto there are just no excuses to play Perch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 my word this had slipped to page 3 of the forum!! feel for this lad personally, imo any other manager than pardew and he'd be on the teamsheet at the moment as tiote is an accident waiting to happen poor fucker slogs through the horror story that was the first half of our season, we start playing football suited to him and he's binned Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tollemache Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I reckon Anita will play more and more as time goes on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Feel sorry for him as well, hopefully in some games we can go without Tiote/Perch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 is he physical enough to be a pardew midfielder though is the question i ask myself, might end up out of favour by default Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnonel Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 size/physicality is a myth that has constantly been debunked on here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 It would be ridiculous to just cast him aside after spending £7mil or whatever on him. Especially after looking like our brightest player after a tough start Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

arnonel Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 He isnt cast aside. We have more than 11 good players now. Simples. He will still be a very important player for us over the years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

morla84 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 He's been out the side for 3 games man, 2 of which we won so stuck with unchanged sides and everyone said he looked knackered when he came on against Villa. Sounded like Llambias rates him very highly for one, going by his interview last week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Really like Anita, keeps us moving so well. Think him and Cabaye on the field when we play "lesser" sides is a given. Tioté when we have to break up play more. The most modern midfielder we have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I reckon Pards is just giving him a break and will introduce gradually as our form increases. He is new to league, struggled, confidence bound to be down a bit. may be good man management Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 suppose he might also be the ultimate debuchy cover when simpson goes like wouldn't be too upset with that as an option actually Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 He's alright at RB, but considering him a backup fullback would be mad disrespect of his ability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 didn't mean as his only role, just meant that'd be part of his role in the squad...santon now has cover with the new lad and personally if debuchy is out i'd like to see anita there instead of taylor or someone of course his primary position should be CM, probably starting CM imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Really feel sorry for him! He was our star player in a quite a few games when we were complete rubbish, our only shining light... Come back Cabaye, Tiote and even Perch and he's out the team. Tiote is obviously the direct swap for Perch and I for one think that now that he doesn't need to be "attacking" he can concentrate on what he does best; breaking up play. I would certainly have had Anita on instead of Jonas based on his form prior to the newbies, but he has picked up again now and is playing better... He should play tonight at some point, think it will be to replace sissoko or cabaye at around 60 or 70 if we are winning... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I think he will be class eventually, think we just need to find that position for him in midfield, probably as deepest centre mid and ensure he has the players around him to pick out (Debuchy, Cabaye, Santon, Sissokho) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Coming deep to pick up the ball, moving around and making us tick with his passing. Him and Marveaux saw us play with completely different dynamics for a while, and you could see how Anita was coming into his own. He's a brilliant link between defence and midfield and has pace and energy about his game that we need alongside Cabaye. The problem is, as we've learnt, that Pardew likes a tackle on the pitch. In certain games I'd have Tioté over him, but we could make really good use of Anita more often in the coming games looking at our fixtures. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 It would be a real shame if Marveaux and Anita weren't a major part of our plans, they are genuine quality footballers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnonel Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 You can tell by the posts that we are a club not used to having a squad. Lets keep everyone. Lets add more. And they will all have a role/place in the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
