AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Yeah, I share the worry about him spending too much time on making us hard to beat. I think this season has been exceptionally bad though, and I don't think it's time to draw conclusions about Pardews entire management. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this season has been exceptionally bad though, and I don't think it's time to draw conclusions about Pardews entire management. Well by definition we can only do that once he's gone, the sum total is deeply concerning right now though. We'll be better once these injuries and suspensions clear up but again that's not saying anything for the manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dontooner Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 The Boat has already started rocking, when some of our better players leave aka Ben arfa ,Cabaye,Ba.etc Reality will start to set in for most of the fans. Simple really, good players want to play with good managers. You can't really save a sinking boat when there is momentum with key players asking to leave. Either get a better manager where the players feel excited to play for or let the players go as we have a long term plan just to remain in the league. Quite obvious what the Owners think, so be ready to loose our top performing players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ba excluded, our top players are all on long contracts and the club won't sell unless they get offered top whack, and then they'll hold out for more. If we end up forcing players to stay at SJP real trouble beckons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll raise you Shola, tbf he's hardly put a foot wrong in the bits and pieces he's played in but we need 9/10 players performing to their best not 4 or 5 and therin lies Pardew's problem.

Less variations of attacking models = less goals . There is absolutely no doubt this barren spell was coming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would not let Swansea play.” Bit of the same as mentioned before, but Imagine someone on here saying those things? They'd get laughed out of town for coming across as being someone without basic knowledge of Cisse's form, our form, Torres's form and the actual result. This isn't someone on here, though. This is the person leading us ffs. There's keeping up appearances and giving players confidence through the press, but that's just embarrassing.

He's looked very impressive. Flatters to deceive, there's rarely any end product. Looks better than he is due to having Simpson on the other side. OK player but like a few of our purples I think we have a slightly skewed view of how good they are. Tin hat time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

arnonel Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 man for man we had the better side, regardless of who was playing. and the fact that we were at home leaves ZERO excuse. I would say however, the players are as much to blame as pardew. Our defence has been in very poor form. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the thing though, the players seem to really like Pardew, with a lot of our better players having the chance to move on in the summer. We all know how that ball rolls, see Carroll and Ben Arfa if players really want it their own way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
