Mole_Toonfan Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Our players are good enough but they are playing with no logical shape or tactics. Nail on head. Of course it is, we have top 6 players but a conference manager, hopefully ( although i'm not holding my breath) we can at least get a manager who belongs in this league and not a few tiers below.

Guest bimpy474 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 There's nothing wrong with either of those as a set up, the problem is we have no movement and attacking play. There's plenty wrong with only ever having 3, or 4 if a fullback joins in, players attacking. It's crazy. And our defence stays way too deep. There's nothing wrong with the 1st pic as a setup if you don't have the ball, but it's f***ing stupid way to try to score goals when you do have the ball. That's the problem. We can play as image 1 when they have the ball, or deeper even if need be, but we just don't push up to the second image. I dont mean the depth mate, i meant the actual formation itself. Same formation but pushed up is fine with good movement, should have made that clearer. Oh for sure. That's really all formation 2 is: Formation 1 but pushed forward. Except Cabaye moves forward as well so there's only 1 holding midfielder, but it could still work (but be a bit less gung-ho) with Cabaye further back but I think that would be a waste of his talents, as we're seeing now. I noticed a problem from the very start with Pardew concerning Tiote, when Hoots had him, he sat in front of the centre backs winning it and giving it simple. Now under Padrew, Tiote chases the ball like a puppy chasing a balloon. Instead of sitting in the middle winning it and giving it simple as he did under hoots. And that position in front of our centre backs is a position always vacant under whatever so called formation Pardew uses, we are caught on the break so often with no one there, it's so poor it's untrue at times.

Guest icemanblue Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 He fucked up today, like. No getting away from that. The Shola sub looked like panic and was made far too early. He also didn't address the defensive issues at half time. It would have made a lot more sense for Taylor to handle Graham, with Mapou picking up Sessegnon. Regardless, we gave them too much space in the final third time and time again. It wasn't too much of a shock that we got punished. However, I don't think our wonderful players can be at all excused today. To a man, there was a complete absence of composure and concentration. They were also severely lacking in terms of aggression, something we haven't seen too often in these derbies. He still gets next season, for me. As disappointing a result as this is, it won't my opinion completely. He, and the players, need this season to finish as quickly as possible. But, before that, they have the remaining games to begin the payback for this absolute mess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Payback. How can you get payback for allowing Di Canio the opportunity to celebrate like that at St James'? Anyone who forgives or forgets today is a fucking cretin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 The only thing that he has going for him is the fear of getting someone worse. That is it, all of it, everything. As a manager he has absolutely no redeeming features. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're barely staving off relegation, bowed out in the Europa, and just got embarrassed by Sunderland at home. And somehow, he's managed to make our squad full of objectively very good players look like a L1 side all season. Plenty of managers have been fired for far less. Pardew's not magically going to become a good manager during the offseason and steer us to the CL next year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Biggest criticism is that between the squad, Pards and his staff we haven't worked out how to take a corner that's worries the oppo in all this time. Scary, scary stuff for something that everyone else makes look so simple and everyone watching us play can see straight away. To consistently make the same mistake over, and over, and over again is scary and an indictment on all involved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
