Happy Face Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 http://i41.tinypic.com/2444n52.jpg We shoot from inside 6 yards only one third as much as we did 2 years ago. Even though we take more shots, we fashioned 61 shots within the 6 yard box then, compared to 21 now. http://i43.tinypic.com/33c2q7d.jpg http://i43.tinypic.com/xly23k.jpg http://i40.tinypic.com/231b3n.jpg *Premier League only http://i42.tinypic.com/2v0coox.jpg http://i40.tinypic.com/4ihngg.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Aerial duels Not hugely different to last season really but then we didn't play great football then. Way down on through balls. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Aerial duels Not hugely different to last season really but then we didn't play great football then. Way down on through balls. Nah but there's definitely a few noticeable ones. Massive increase in crosses, and a massive drop in short passes and through balls. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowlingcrofty Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Not surprising really, we weren't all that good last season, we just won a lot of tight games that we've lost this year. I think it says more about last season than it does about this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Wonder why we draw so rarely under Pardew. Is it because his tactics are rigid and they generally either work well or don't work at all, with little in between? Even last season, when we lost it tended to go very pear-shaped.

Player confidence perhaps? Possibly. It's something that needs looking at though, we're obviously a bit 'all or nothing' at present. Need to be more resilient, even for the best teams those points gained when you don't play well all add up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stozo Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Serves to highlight my theory that we were very lucky last season and a bit unlucky this season. I think the last two seasons we've been a 50-55 point team that has had two very contrasting seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to be more resilient, even for the best teams those points gained when you don't play well all add up. It's been a big thing for a while, last season we collapsed to heavy defeats on a far too regular basis, this season we have followed that up. I think a big thing is being unable to change a mindset effectively once we have gone behind. We get ragged far too easily, particularly in full back and central midfield areas.

Is it because his tactics are rigid and they generally either work well or don't work at all, with little in between? Even last season, when we lost it tended to go very pear-shaped. Player confidence perhaps? Aye, I think so. Last season we got a rolll going, no injuries and some good squad additions. Everyone was excited and we turned draws into wins with our endeavour. This season it started on more of a knife edge. There was a real downer at the close of the window when there was no quailty added. We still drew 5 of the first 10 games ....then we lost Coloccini to a 3 game ban and went on a downward spiral, lost 4 on the bounce...which turned into 10 out of 13. Confidence is massive.

Dave Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 That assumes every shot is a reasonable chance though. When you've got Papiss Cisse and Cheik Tiote in your side, that's definitely not the case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More down to Jonas crosses probably being counted as shots, and Cabaye and Ba when he was here shooting from every possible angle. Oh and Tiote like Dave said.

Tiote takes one, sometimes two, shots a game. Very rarely is he in a position to take more. As usual, any negative stat is gospel and 'proof' of a negative viewpoint. Any suprisingly positive stat is strewn with contradictions and caution, and couldn't possibly be accurate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
