Wullie Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 I seem to remember Brett absolutely guaranteeing me that Pardew wouldn't just go with the same team against Norwich and that Ben Arfa would play. This is Pardew all over, we weren't seeing some sort of tactical genius at work in the last two games. His ploy is always: - win a game with System X - use it until one occasion where we lose - adopt System Y. - Repeat Welcome back Wullie, mate. ?

ExiledGeordie Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 The last two results have been good but the manager is still rank average. I just hope today we don't do what everyone knows is very likely, go into our shells and punt long balls forward, continue to get more nervous and then concede a soft goal. I'll do a war dance in the pub if we go in a goal up and come out in the 2nd half like its a preseason match, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFC_Sam Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Shola starting three premier league games in a row in 2013. What a disgrace. Doesn't really offer us anything, just because we won with him starting doesn't mean he should start each game. Ben Arfa or even Cisse is a far better option.

His ploy is always: - win a game with System X - use it until one occasion where we lose - adopt System Y. - Repeat Indeed, his ploy is also to always, always be defensively minded no matter who we're playing. People are still posting things like 'we'll see in the next two games if we've changed as a team'. We haven't and we won't, we just won two games on the spin using the managers only trick. Good wins like, I'm not denying that, but we'll never become anything other than defend and nick one under Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Why is it so certain that he'll play the same team? He switched it up after beating Cardiff. Just general Pardew-pessimism I think, same as always. It's the safer option for Pardew. He'll probably figure we might well win with Shola starting anyway, and it gives him a strong bench if he needs a goal. Pardew is always more comfortable with a solid line up in any case in my view. That was back on page 3 of this thread last week. It was never going to be any different tbh. Not that I'm too fussed, I think we'll win this game whichever line up we put out, Norwich are a really poor side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
