Mick Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Who do you reckon is better would work under Ashley and Kinnear then? I think Poyet is better and would have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbo Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I've thought they'd be alright for ages tbh, they're on an upward trajectory in terms of their performances and their fixture list before Christmas was freakish. Poyet is showing why we need to bin Pardew, they had a manager holding them back and binned him and replaced him with an upgrade and the difference is like night and day. Who do you reckon is better who would work under Ashley and Kinnear then? At this moment in time, any old cunt. Curbs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkzter Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Give them credit. Organised and efficient under a manager who knows what it's all about. Staying up, cup final and the double over their rivals. I'd take that. Fair play to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who do you reckon is better who would work under Ashley and Kinnear then? All the Pardew defenders said this last year, and when I said Poyet it didn't go down very well. Fucked if I'm going to scratch my head again, but there'll be plenty of up and coming managers who would jump at a chance to manage this great club.

newsted Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Who do you reckon is better would work under Ashley and Kinnear then? I think Poyet is better and would have. He wouldn't have any say in the transfers here though, which he clearly does there. This pains me so much. I would have turned us down for that reason alone.

I can't see a club bigger than us going for him and it's a perfect chance for him to prove he could run a big club and use us as a stepping stone if he was successful.

Exiled in Texas Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 And even after their good run (making hay while the sun shines) they are still only 2 pts clear of the relegation zone. They have done well during this part of the schedule against the low/mid table teams but the schedule will son turn against them. And yet....I have been impressed by the work Poyet has done....they have god shape, good purpose and looked really good today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 This is the best I've seen them in terms of on the ball passing, movement and off the ball movement at our place. They play simple but effective football and its clearly working for them. Mind, they faced a piss poor team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
