Beren Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Shak Are you okay dude? No point he cant see you as He's got his eyes closed, dick in between his laptop thinking about Maria. Eveything feels like Maria. I quite like the comic strip, tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Crooks Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 They'll have a 5-10 minute spell here, long as we don't do what we did last season there when that happens and shut up shop, we should be alright. Indeed. Actually starting to look like a decent counter attacking outfit. It's no coincidence with the inclusion of a lively forward and a cool headed intelligent DM.

Beren Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Should be 2, but that was decent. Hope we keep it up second half. That's by far and away our best XI, imo. Agree with the exception of Cisse who hasn't imposed himself on the game (/for a while). Would rather have Gouffran over him atm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Who knew playing a 4-3-3 without 2 of the shittest midfielders in the PL would lead to much better football? Stroke of genius from Pardew, if only we'd thought about it sooner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Happy with that tbh, although i wish we could keep it up when we get a lead more often. Far too often once we get a lead we drop back into 2nd gear, get the feeling we could win comfortably if we move up the gears. We need to do that in games like this and finish teams off when we are on top. Can't allow them to get back into the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Canny so far, they're no great shakes. Little concerned we don't have a left winger, though. They could well just stick 2 on HBA second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ameritoon Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Keep the ball a bit more in the second, get one on the counter and kill it off. We've set ourselves up perfectly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Very good first half hour, hope we keep it up, their left back looks awful and we should be getting Ben arfa running at him as much as possible second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0cafella Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Cabaye is working hard, It's interesting how much freedom he's got, he's roaming all over the pitch Pardew must have a lot of faith in him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with the exception of Cisse who hasn't imposed himself on the game (/for a while). Would rather have Gouffran over him atm. At times, it feels like we're playing with 10 men. We seem to have lost our shape a bit since the goal. Villa look bright on the ball and I think we'll need another one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could well just stick 2 on HBA second half. Think it's quite obvious Villa are better suited to those quick passing moves on the counter-attack - which is what we've ended up doing. Good work so far. Be surprised if Lambert doesn't change things up at half-time, and invite us on to them a bit more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good work so far. Yea this would explain their poor home record to be honest. They prefer to play counter attacking football to utilise the pace of their front three.

Stifler Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Apart from the last move of the half we did nothing after the 1st goal, typical us. Our CB's are having possession for too long and too far up the pitch for my liking, it should be distributed quicker. Also we need to move the ball across the pitch when either Remy or Ben Arfa are doubled up on, that way we can exploit the other wing which is free. We need to be the ones controlling possession like we did before our goal because Villa are getting a little too much for my liking. If we want too we could be in full control of this game.
