The key element of being a manager is coaching. If your players aren't superstars, you need to teach them how to compete against superstars, not moan because your owner or chairman isn't providing better players.

 

If i were a manager, i'd relish the challenge of getting the most out of a squad.

 

The irony is that last season, it was our biggest asset. Pardew was getting some great performances out of Simpson, Perch, Taylor and Best. This season he's given up on certain players and stuck by the wrong ones (Jonas, Williamson).

I just don't think it's helpful right now.

 

You'd hope the whole staff would have their minds 100% on Sunday.

 

Fair one.

 

But really I don't think it will make a difference either way, the only thing I take from his comments is that he's not too confident of keeping his job, which is pleasing :lol:

Hopefully is gearing up for a sacking, you'd think he wouldn't be saying stuff like that if he's trying to stay on Ashley's good side?

 

He said the other day that he'd not spoke to Ashley since the Liverpool result, so I have no doubt that he's just fishing for support.

 

Think he's genuinely worried. MA is one monster of unpredictable manflesh!!

"We had to move for Moussa Sissoko, who probably we may have done at the end of the year if we had got Loic Remy, and he is not a goalscorer. He's a midfield player-cum-number 10.

 

No he isn't, Alan.

He's just getting his excuses in early.

 

Ashley's unpredictable.  The team has had too many injuries.  The Notting Hill Carnival was on the wrong day.  All the transfers were done above his head.

 

He'll be able to cry to his mates in the media about how he was badly treated (assuming he gets the sack) and it was all due to elements beyond his control and nothing to do with his inability to coach at the highest levels.

I think you are reading too much into what he said, to me it was just the usual "manager talk" by every manager at the bottom of the league being asked if he was worried about is job (the question being neatly edited from the broadcast to suggest he raised the subject himself, which of course, he wouldn't) - saying his future is not in his hands, but those of the owner / chairman / chief executive. To say he wasn't worried would cause more accusations of ego etc.

Probably right.

He has used countless s**** excuses in the past but with this one he has a good point.

 

It depends on whether we would have got Sissoko, Debuchy, Gouffran, Haidara and Yanga Mbiwa as well. In fact, nah. What am I even doing entertaining it!? He's full of absolute shit man. I would sympathise if he actually endeavoured to getting the best out of Cisse's game, or anyone else's for that matter.

 

I agree but we did lose our top goalscorer, he and we thought he was being replaced and he wasn't. That's their fault really, not his.

Possibly; had quite the epiphany on this though hasn't he? Too many other deflective excuses provided to give this one credence.

Just goes to show how desperate he really is.  He's run out of ideas of how to turn it round, and has resorted to pulling out all the classics and a few  :dowie: ones to try and deflect the shit storm that's on its way.
