Guest tollemache Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Let's shift gears and discuss his tactics. Any managers meat and drink. Trollemache what do you think of Pardew tactic gems which consists of. Not attacking until the 70th minute Or how about the floated set pieces we lump to the back post? Or that ocean of space in front of our back 4 the opposition has to play in week in week out? I agree he's often too negative. Not working on set pieces for a year or two just puzzled the fuck out of me. Really bizarre. WTF Not sure what you mean about the ocean of space necessarily as not so long ago we had a great run of form that was built on our compactness and ability to press as a team, so clearly that's not a chronic problem. Overall, tactically, I think he's average. Nothing great, lacking in imagination. From time to time we've got something going, but never fashioned an identity of any kind. Tactically he's workmanlike, a damp squib. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I have no idea, but I hope if they get out they get out at a nice tasty profit we can spend on their replacement. Well I'll tell you. All of them. They see the club as nothing more than a stepping stone in the PL shop window. That's fine. There are clubs bigger than us who I'm sure they'd love to play for. That's our lot - we're not Real Madrid. Important thing is that we get a good deal, and spend the money wisely. The ole Real Madrid straw man. What are you saying then, that we should expect our players not to want to play for bigger clubs? That players who sign for Newcastle should see it as the ceiling of their ambitions? There's nothing wrong with players joining us hoping to do well and move to a massive club. We are a massive club, Ashley and Pardews propaganda has certainly worked on you I used to think we act no bigger than Wigan these days, but then Wigan tried to win the cup. And are defending it quite well, and all that after being in the Europa Leauge and a 46 game league campaign. Pardew would have a nervous breakdown.

Shut the utter f*** up. If thats your level of support then go and support a team to match your ambitions and leave this club to the true fans Level of support, eh? This isn't a question of support, it's a question of having the remotest grip on reality. We're not in the Champions League and we don't win trophies. Other clubs consistently do these things so players will want to join them. You're a nutcase. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tollemache Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Cabaye was going to go when a big club came in, full stop. If we'd squeezed into the Champions League then maybe he'd have put it off for a year. There's just no way we were about to suddenly become a club who got CL football every year, which is what he has now, no matter how much we spent. And there you go again which is it? Spend money and get champions league /league placing or not. You talk so much drivel man, if we spent man city money we'd be in the champions league. Just as they are, and Chelsea We don't have the option to spend that much money. Let me rephrase then: "...no matter how much of OUR money we spent without totally fucking ourselves over" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tollemache Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 No, I said we'd had a run of good form that was based on compactness and pressing. You have to read and respond to the actual words I write. It's true. For a while earlier in the season we were very hard to play through. Before that we were shit, and now we seem to be quite shit again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We DO have the option we just choose not to. How is it hard for you to grasp, bottom 4 net spend over the past 5 years Us/Everton/Arsenal/Spurs. Er... yeah. 4 clubs being run quite well then, in terms of transfers, and they've all done quite well, without making enormous leaps and bounds or having a full-on tilt at the title. In that time our squad has improved loads. What's your point? Ashley isn't there to pump loads of his own money in and have a cheeky tilt at the title no matter what the cost. Nor is Levy, nor is Kenwright. They're there to run the club as a business, so that it progresses. That is how you run a football club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 We've definitely made some quality signings, and it wasn't so long ago most people grudgingly accepted our policy was alright. Question is why the signings dried up recently, which (as with anything Ashley does) is pretty hard to predict. It could be because he's decided we won't spend any more money ever, it could be because he actually believed Kinnear was capable of doing deals. It could be loads of things, quite hard to say IMO. What, "most people grudgingly accepted our policy was alright"? Ner, people believed our transfer model might have been good until it became apparent that we had little interest in building a great squad and would only purchase players if we could get them on the cheap. The was no begrudged acceptance, why even say that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
