Disco Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Always important to bulk up the flair players so they lose that edge which is what makes them the player they are in the first place. Good thinking Pardle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deckard 13 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I'd love to know what Pardews assessment of someone like Oscars or Silvas physique is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 It would fucking ruin him if he bulked up. Maybe add an amount of strength but really doesn't need to smash the gym. He is a flair player relying on agility but Pardew wants a defensive fucking winger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I'd love to know what Pardews assessment of someone like Oscars or Silvas physique is. Needs bulking up, not enough tackle, moar jumping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Was thinking the same about Silva and Oscar. Pardew needs to shut the fuck up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Pardew only likes the Bale / Cronaldo build attacking players. Or I guess.... Moussa Sissoko Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmonkey Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Thought at the beginning of last season, based purely on the visible changes in Hatem's physique/playing style, that Pardew had put Ben Arfa on a different training regime to bulk him up, and also asked him to blast the ball at goal at any/every opportunity (which is why in the first few months of the season Hatem was shooting wildly from 30-40 yards out when it's not his normal game to try shooting so speculatively from that range, and also why he started to look a bit "meatier"). Coincidentally, this was shortly after Bale had been the standout player in the country - i.e. in Pardew's simple mind the solution to the Ben Arfa "problem" was to try to turn him into Bale (similar to Tiote and Essien). This Cabella bulking up nonsense imo adds weight to this theory that Pardew has experimented with Hatem. Probably won't be long before Cabella is being asked to shoot more often from 25-35 yards out as Pardew tries to cover our horrendous lack of creativity with more speculative long range shots and aimless balls into the box.

Ronaldo Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Big difference between strengthening and bulking, like. Kieron Dyer was never more than around 9 stone but he learnt how to be pretty strong on the ball. It's a silly statement overall, mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Bale, Ronaldo - those are once in a lifetime talents and physical beasts on their own. Just let these guys play their proper game their body has naturally developed into or based on their own specific normal training schedules. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 People are too influenced by visuals and having the look that matches up to a trait. I've been guilty of it for years when I've been writing music, doing things that looked right on the screen and thinking that it must be right without really listening to it, all completely to my detriment. It's probably a bit of a shit analogy, but it's the same with this sort of thing. A player needs to be x,y and z to be x,y and z a player in the modern game and it's all rubbish. It's whatever works, works. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo's physique has been honed in the gym no doubt. I know you know your fitness stuff - but you'll also know what I mean by -- Hey Hatem, bulk up a bit versus. Hey Cristiano, bulk up a bit. It's clearly in CRon's genetics the way he's been able to put on the muscle + maintain his speed, agility, etc. Versus someone like Hatem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronaldo didn't want to get dashed off the ball so easily, he increased his strength, especially core strength and stamina. He didn't just 'bulk'. But I do agree his natural body type and shape helped. Hatem needed similar. If anything he needed help to improve his stamina and maintaining too speed over longer distances rather than just gaining weight. I don't buy that he's muscle 'bulked' either. Most of it looks to be fat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a flair player relying on agility but Pardew wants a defensive fucking winger. Did you read what he actually said? Honestly, you and Pardew are like two peas in a pod in your takes on Cabella, but somehow you're having a go at him. Bizarre. While the 24-year-old is slightly-built, Pardew does not feel that will be a problem. And he believes the France international, pictured, will quickly gain strength and adjust to the pace of the Premier League – and pick up where he left off in France. “He’s not far away from fitness,” said Pardew. “He’s got to be a bit stronger – he’s a slight guy – but it makes him difficult to contain. He can skip past you. He’s got a nice inventive brain and comes up with ideas on the football pitch.” http://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/football/newcastle-united/pardew-more-power-to-cabella-1-6780025 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
