George Bailey Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Bobbins. That's what you get by trawling around for 'bargains'. You may get lucky a small % of the time but this is what you get the majority of the time....bobbins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 To be fair, it has been 5 total matches in a team that is actually collapsing upon itself. I know from watching his career, that he is nothing more than average, but it is hard to criticise the new boys when they've debuted less than a month ago and are already in the midst of a crisis.

ujpest doza Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 crock of shit. for missing the target from there he wants flogging. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I really appreciate the lack of an impact this young man has made so far. In his short time here he has already understood that t is for the greater good. God bless you son. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 He has been absolutely terrible in his first 4 games, absolutely nothing to get excited about, nothing to justify even his small transfer fee. Scouting network needs to look at themselves and question WTF they were thinking that this guy could lead our line in the PL. Now he may need time to settle in and I'm sure Pardew's coaching has had an impact but there are zero signs there, zero signs that he has any ability to improve.

sempuki Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Have to agree he looks poor. His record in a weaker league was average at best so hardly a shock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I know they're the ones out there and they therefore take a lot of the blame for how shit we are, but with the new players in particular it feels totally pointless judging them too much. We're a horrible team with a rubbish manager, I'm not sure we can expect the players to look anything but awful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Does anyone know if he outscored Falcao and Rodriguez last year at Monaco?

Fair enough, but attacking players are the ones given the very least opportunity to shine under Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 He was a nothing player in pre season when playing against rubbish. He's not a goal scorer and will not contribute anything with the style of football we try miserably to play. Completely stupid signing and perhaps a little unfair on him. At least he's fit enough to play unlike Chunky or whatever he's called. How many shots on target have our strikers had so far this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAK Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Will reserve judgement, watching the Chelsea Swansea match and seeing mostly average players like Routledge (who wasn't good enough for us) playing above themselves because they play to a system and are motivated by their manager.

We got Obertan for Routledge who we were told was not good enough for us. I know which one I prefer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I liked Routledge, I never really understood the criticism he got on here. He made a huge difference to us in the promotion season and I don't think he was really given a fair crack of the whip in the first season back.

huss9 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 think he's finally found a club that plays a system that suits him. always been used as on out and out winger in the past and no one really had the brains to make the most of him.
