Mike Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Pardew writes and writes and writes in that fucking notepad. What the fuck is he writing! It's the same shit setup and style of play! No ink in that pen. Pulling a Costanza "look busy" move. it's like when I see people (me) carrying around a folder and a pen, just doing laps of the hospital pretending to be important. What is my life. You only see him fucking with that pad when things are going relentlessly bad. It's all scribbles, guaranteed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I'm not finding it that funny. Our unprofessionalism has infected our team now. We're dying. On the one half yes, on the other hand it's just a friendly I'm only guessing, but I would imagine that for most clubs, pre-season aims are along the lines of (in no particular order): 1. Improve core fitness. 2. Gain confidence. 3. Work on new ideas. 4. Integrate new players. 5. Avoid injuries. Which of the five are we doing so far? 2 out of 5 ain't bad when it's Newcastle tbf. Anita is injured (assuming that was one of the two you meant). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Same side, same issues. We don't have the confidence or the ability to work the ball forward through the midfield when put under pressure. The ball goes backwards and we hit it long to a lone striker. Pointless. We also look very static in our positions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliottman Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Sholas movement is none existent why the f*** do we still bother with him its f***ing depressing, may aswel just stick a statue on the pitch. I think its because we have no one else. Do we have any other strikers in reserves other than Campbell. How have we not got young strikers at all. No one who is remotely close to the first team. Even Campbell is going out on loan. We literally have no one. Not much AP can do on that front to be fair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Whether or not you believe friendlies are purely about fitness, in this particular game - all of the exact same problems are re-occurring. We're playing shit, basically. Shit defending, shit attacking, no discernible game-plan, no discipline. For now, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt cos this trip seems entirely based around building fitness. It desperately needed working on so I think we can forgive them for that. But, hopefully, we'll see some kind of structure to our football by the Rangers/Braga games. As for the Coloccini thing. Fucking appalling from him, tbh.

True but this one is a bit of a one off, it's been very niggly from the start and just got a bit out of hand. Then it was bundle time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Nevermind starting Sissoko wide right and Ben Arfa in the middle, why did he not instruct them to change it around when it became clear very quickly it's not working at all? Absolute waste of our two best attacking players available in that lineup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 It's only a friendly but it's ludicrous that we are seeing the same patterns emerging as last season, the same faults and f***ing s*** football. I think that's what's pissing me off. I appreciate it is a friendly but we should be trying to attack, playing without fear really and not repeating the same shocking mistakes from last season. I'm seeing no evidence of any of that. In addition Pardew still has not learned players positions and appeared to move Ben Arfa out right after a bit, should have been there from the start. Why play a central player out right and move your best wide player centre. Beyond belief. We never create many chances either or at least fire a shot off. Never close enough to do it. Predict we will finish around 16th this season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
