Wullie Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Not much he could have/should have done differently today. Ignoring the fact that he didn't get the job this morning, why didn't Remy feature? You know, that guy who scores all our goals? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Not a stand-out poor performance from the manager, but I think we could have been better. Damage is already well and done, like. He won't salvage a consistently good side out of this lot, he's rubbish and they're not interested, for all they may raise their game now and again. Tmonkey's post about sports psychology is absolutely spot on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 City are coming off a defeat. I don’t know how many times they get beat twice on the trot - not often, so we will have to do something extraordinary. It was David against Goliath. Goliath won.

TRon Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Not much he could have/should have done differently today. Well he could have recognised that City were there for the taking tonight and stuck Remy on to provide some extra aerial fire power seeing as how their defence couldn't cope at all with the long hoof.

Put all the onus back onto Cisse and the guy can't score for shit. Shola isn't very good and I wish we'd moved on from him years ago, but I'd back him over Cisse to actually find the net. Certainly at the moment, anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Remy had been in his place then we wouldn't have had the same good link up play with HBA (particularly on the break). We'd have been playing a different game.

Like scoring a goal. Goals, you say? "I really think the team is in decent shape," says Pardew. "I've set it up in much more attacking mode with three strikers and will continue to do so regardless of who they are. "I like the feel of this team – it's got goals. I'd like to lock up the back door a bit more but I'm not going to stray from what I think is the way forward for Newcastle and that's to try to score goals."

nufc4eva Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 He changed his formation and tactics once again, and although we had a good go and it worked for a while, it again was another change to how the team plays. Why can't he just decide on a way for us to play and master that one instead of thinking he is a tactical genius the cunt. It's either 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1, 4-4-2 or whatever we never look totally comfortable, and the tactics differ so much from game to game. Is it pass and retain the ball looking to find a break, or sit deep and counter, or is it get the ball and hoof it as much as possible. We are so disjointed and no common theme to the way we play, at least if he just picked a way of playing win, lose or draw and stuck with it we might have half a chance. He baffles the fuck out of me the way he plays Sissoko, Ben Arfa, Gouffran. We are so predictable to watch and don't play with much urgency at times. At 1-0 down we were just sitting deep not bothered at all and thats a common theme under this cunt, at least in the first half we looked like we had a bit of urgency about us.

Varadi Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 We did OK. Looked interested at least. If it was a league game though they would've swatted us aside comfortably, daft to pretend otherwise. Harsh to criticise Pardew for not being able to beat Man City though, far better to judge him on the games he should be winning. Like the derby.

We've changed the training regime from Monday - Thursday = defending, Friday = attacking. It now seems to be more like: Monday 4-4-2, Tuesday 4-3-3, Wednesday 4-2-3-1 on the deck, Thursday 4-3-1-2, Friday 4-2-3-1 going long ball, then on Saturday we give them all a go for 15 minutes each.

Harsh to criticise Pardew for not being able to beat Man City though, far better to judge him on the games he should be winning. Like the derby. The criticism is for his starting line-up, and for his subs. Why on earth take Dummett off who was providing natural left-sided width? Bring Remy on and take Sissoko off. Tiote maybe if he wants to wrap him in cotton wool for Saturday. Unless Remy was carrying a slight knock, there's no reason why he shouldn't have come on in the second half.

Stifler Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 The guy didn't go for it early enough, we were creating chances but our balls in the box were poor. We needed an outlet and we were having all the space on the wing yet it was down to Debuchy to bring the crosses in. If Remy or Ben Arfa had came on sooner we could have had some crosses or even one of them cutting back in which would have created more chances. After the first goal our players just stopped as if it was a forgone conclusion that we had lost. It is this mentality that automatically comes to our players that has made us a bunch of losers, because we don't do anything to get back into games. The saddest thing though is that with us going to ET this ducking cunt already has his excuse in for Saturday. That's all this bastard of a manager is interested in, finding a reason for our poor results and if we get a good one then that's a bonus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
