Spudil Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Who do people think Benfica are anyway, that they are simply too great to be beaten 2-0 away from home in Europe? They are a very good team, but it's not like they're world class. They are not incapable of being beaten. They looked shaky defensively every time we attacked them, but unfortunately that's not saying much given we barely even f***ing tried to attack them. This. We beat Man U 3-0 at home why wouldn't we be able to beat them 2-0? You laughing? Read the last pages, people make it out like it was impossible to beat Benfica 2-0 ffs. Only Barcelona have done that this season. Barcelona for f***s sake. One of the best club teams to grace the game. You're f***ing mental Right. And only Cit beat Man U by more than three goals last season. Not even Real did it this season. What's your point? Calling me mental for? Actually why even respond when you're clearly delusional? Is there an ignore button on here? Seriously? I can't cope with this every time we don't win. It's like holding a conversation with my 2 year old niece. There is, and you're two year old niece must be very intelligent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Mole, come on, that's what many of us are trying to say. He's incapable of managing so why do some still want him at the club? It's not about tonight, it's about the path we are taking with him as our manager. everyone knows we need an upgrade. No they don't. I think they do. Just a lot are unsure we're able to get an upgrade in. Fair enough. I know many on here don't though. There's the mould of Yorkie, Dave and so on who are undecided and agree with Mole. But thee are some who defend Pardew and thinks he's done nothing wrong this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Aye, only cos Krul dropped it at the bloke's feet. They troubled us little other than that. They're always going to get a chance or two, not realistic to expect otherwise whether you choose to attack or defend. If we'd scored earlier on and they equalised on 20 or 30 minutes we would have had 60 or 70 to try and get another 2. As it turned out we left it late to score and when they equalised it was game over because we had 4 minutes of injury time to try and get 2 goals.

Let's be fair though, I can't see any manager wanting to come and work for Ashley. He might have settled down recently but his previous is going to rule plenty managers out.

Guest Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Easy to forget we basically had half a Championship standard defence out tonight, and two young lads who've been here 3 months across the back four, one of which is lucky to be playing at the moment. Pardew has his faults, but I don't think he got a lot wrong in this tie home and away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe nothing wrong, but who thinks injuries are the big reason why we are doing bad and not the fact that he just isn't a very good manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get another two (against Benfica, no less, without conceding) and then still only be at the extra time stage, possibly lose anyway and before the derby on Sunday? That's better than needing a single goal with twenty to go? Give over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather you agreed that come end of the season he should be gone. But like I said, you, Yorkie, now Mole and Keefaz to have clearly pointed out that you believe he should be given more time while me, bimpy, interpolic, Mick are just tired of watching this dross time and time again. It's a fair opinion and I'd guess the difference is we are either smarter or just have less patience then you guys Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pardew has his faults, but I don't think he got a lot wrong in this tie home and away. Not giving them something to think about for the first 45 minutes is something that I would consider as a huge fuck-up..... more so when you you're 3-1 down from the first leg. Cowardly. Simple as.
