Interpolic Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Basically repeating myself here, but if i was Chairman, i'd only sack Pardew if i had the means to poach a really top replacement. This won't be popular... but i do think people are exaggerating when they say we're definitely going down. The situation isn't completely desperate and there are nine points up for grabs now. Again 'if i was Chairman', i'd assess the situation after these next three games. I was starting to regain a bit of faith in him after the last few games in terms of us playing the right way, but he's totally blown my mind tonight. As you say, he's got 3 games to play a 433/4231/whatever and see how we get on. Less than 6 points and he can fuck off IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 There's no disgrace in getting beat off a strong, organised and driven Everton side but ending the game with that 11 containing Ameobi's x 2, Ranger, Willo and a young kid (as talented as he is) in the middle of the park against Fellaini is fucking scandalous.

Guest neesy111 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Didn't think tonight was too bad - we were always likely to lose to Everton with the form they're in and the players we have missing but still managed to create more chances, and with a bit better luck and finishing could have been a draw at least. Things will improve with players returning and coming in - defence for the next league match is likely to be Debuchy - Taylor - Colo - Santon - best back 4 we've been able to put out in years. More chances? Everton created far more than what we did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Feel for him with the Cisse thing - he'll have prepared with Ba in the middle and to lose him on the day of the game makes things very difficult. To accommodate Cisse in middle he'd have had to change the formation from the one which he has prepared the team to play. Utter bollocks of an excuse!! It's not as if Cisse has never played up front ffs! What preparation? Can someone please explain to me how in the hell Ba leaving affected our preparation? It's not like Cisse would have to shoe-horned into a CF role! Fuck me man! I really can't get my head around it. You're right mate, it's absolute fucking bollocks.

Tiresias Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 This was the must win game though, and he threw it. It wasn't out of reach, he made some baffling decisions and we couldn't keep hold of the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 realistically the rest of this month will make a lot of minds up. You bothered about the FA Cup? Sadly I'm pretty close to hoping we go out. i was more looking at norwich, reading and villa. before feb brings chelsea and tottenham. Was just a general question.

Darth Crooks Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 ll this shit about working the other team out and playing a system based on it is part of the problem. It may work in one context; although I don't believe Pardew is articulate enough to implement something like that. You could see him mid game trying to desperately switch from one formstion to the other and then flung on banaal and overly late subs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnypd Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Anyone name some potential replacements that we could realistically get? Van Marwijk? good shout. i wouldnt want di matteo or blanc though, think they're both pretty shit and we'd soon run into the same probs we have now, along with a few new ones. I would however take someone like Venables to see us through to the end of the season/until we can get a long term appointment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_NUFC Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 If he did actually throw Santon under the bus publicly, he's a worse manager and a worse human being than I had thought him to be. Way to ruin a young player's self-esteem, confidence and faith in his position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't so predictable. I don't know who it was, but in the pre-match thread there was someone hanging his head in despair at the thought of Cisse being put on the wing up against Baines and Pienaar. What for? to accomodate Shola FFS. You couldn't fucking make it up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
