durhamunigeordie Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Got the point and clean sheet that he wanted, I think he'll be delighted with the result. Next match Shola's back so we can go back to 4-4-2. That would be funny if it weren't true! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Bin this absolute fucking cretin. Complete charlatan and anti-football merchant. Carrying no attacking threat whatsoever and still looking uncertain at the back. I'm sorry, but irrespective of the players we bring in we're still going to struggle whilst this fool is in charge. Fucking abysmal showing. QPR, Reading and Southampton all looking like decent sides with a modicum of fight and spirit. Our lot looked as though they were a bunch of individuals. As Mike mentioned on here last week, its clear as day that they're not playing for Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mouldy_uk Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 We don't look like scoring from anything other than moment of class or a defensive mistake. There's no plan, no movement, nu runs in behind. Nothing. This. People keep saying we need this player and that player to keep us up, but the fact is that our current tactics and style of play is making some pretty decent players look average at best. For me the blame lies with Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Went conservative with the approach, to a certain extent I think that's understandable in this game. I would have taken off Cisse and hoyed on Sammy/Ranger late on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That whole Everton stuff with Shola starting (and not coming off) means he's going to play both of them together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Maybe we don't carry an attacking threat because we've had one player with a history of getting goals in the side and none with a history of creating them? Just a thought, like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roger Kint Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Needs to resign. Players don't give a fuck. If you think that then any manager will have the same problem never mind Pardew. Aside from the fact we were set out too defensive there were far too many individual errors all game that he had no bearing on. Our passing was utter shite, giving it away all over the place.

junkhead Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Needs to resign. Players don't give a f***. The players have no idea how they should be attacking. And with zero confidence in themselves and probably Pardew, they ain't gonna figure it out any time soon. His plan is to hoof the ball to Cisse??? That's how we'll compensate Demba's sale? f***ing awful excuse for football that. Unless we buy some target man who gets lucky, we're getting relegated under Pardew. The guy is a fraud and the team's weaknesses aren't simply tactical or individual errors. It's all a product of the false foundations he built his team on. We're playing some other sport because what I'm seeing can't be called football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Can only assume it was deliberate not to commit too many midfielders forward. And we ended up with a draw, so it wasn't an awful idea. FWIW we didn't hoof the ball to Cisse that much at all. But sometimes the ball is at Mike Williamson's feet and the inevitable will happen.

Norwich had a few absolutely comical players playing for them today, and despite being out of form they were still so much more cohesive than we were. Cabaye, Marveaux and Cisse are far better than anyone the bottom half teams have and we are still absolutely useless as a team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Crooks Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I firmly believe that they get bollocked if they break the rigid shape that he tells them to be in a and take a risk. I can't understand how 11 premiership footballers can look so static and reactive without it being instilled through instruction. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from the fact we were set out too defensive there were far too many individual errors all game that he had no bearing on. Our passing was utter shite, giving it away all over the place. It will only improve once the players have been drilled into good movement habits on the training pitch. I odn't think that's the Pardew way, although he's trying to change it recently without looking very convincing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
