Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 "The weird thing about Pardew is that he has a massive ego and I would challenge anybody on what he bases this...Then as you watch him over a period of time you begin to realise that it's not actually a massive ego it's bluster and a defence mechanism borne out of the fact that he is totally out of his depth as a PL manager. The tactical mural of the PL has changed considerably over the last couple of decades, mainly due to the influx of foreign coaches rejecting the luddite and archaic 442 (Pardew;s favoured modus operandi) in favour of more technical position play and pressing and harnessing tempo changes during matches..(Pochettino the prime example)...We see even average coaches like Mark Hughes begin to transform Stoke..We see the immediate impact of the Dutchman at S'hampton. Pardew is a million miles away from this and even when he had a brief and succesful flirtation with 433 he dumped it first chance to try and shoehorn in players (often in alien positons). Pardew is defence based, he is rigid, his players have no license to roam, to express to be creative in the attacking phase...Balls often lumped from (of all people) Williamson to Riviere (who must be shell shocked at the vacum of nous and tactics) roaming alone and pointlessly upfront in aimless patterns of despair. To make sure we are totally screwed Pardew the 'egoist' has dispensed with the flair and attacking threat of HBA just when he might have been there for the odd wonder goal in games where we have run out of ideas, games where Pardew is pointing at the sky as his only idea in getting the ball forward as quick as possible. This time however he is done as there is no Ba or Remy scoring from nothing for fun, there is no Cabaye orchestrating the odd attacking move with cohesion and vision. 'The King' has painted himself into a corner from which this time he will not emerge..Pardew is lost in a world of 80's football and the rest of the PL are passing Newcastle by..."

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I don't think Pardew is confident at all. The thing that confused me most about him was his ability to hit on something good and then immediately scrap it under the slightest pressure. Even when he discovers the right system he's likely to throw it away as soon as anything goes wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Hi dispelled the 4-3-3 with Ba, Cisse and Ben Arfa for no reason whatsoever. We hadn't even had a bad result using it, and we looked bloody frightening going forward. Allegedly because Ba was in a bit of a strop. More cowardice from Pardew ... quelle surprise.

It was all so Ba could play up front, even though everyone could see that was only so he could engineer a move away. Pardew shot himself in both feet there. Idiot. Ruined a good system and lost Ba.

Could also argue that he "lost" cisse as well cos he has barely looked the same player since being shunted out onto the right wing and had his confidence shot.

The season ended at the wrong time for him but fucking Pardew ensured he didnt get back into his stride playing him there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxfree Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Hull City (h) - Saturday 20th September We would love to see a packed St. James' Park with thousands of these being held up to hammer it home that Mike Ashley has no option but to Sack Pardew. We'll be providing links later in the week so you can print your own, or alternatively you can collect them at one of the many co-operating city centre pubs. A full list will follow. The wheels are most definitely in motion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
