It's a result! - My thoughts on the Norwich game

Poor game, but it's a result at the end of the day.

Hopefully we can build on this against Reading and Villa.

Can't really pick on any individual player, not much quality at all.

Ratings -

Krul - 7 - Not had much to do, but was solid when called upon. Class.

Debuchy - 5.5 - Not a fantastic debut, but made some good runs off the ball that were never really picked out. Some good reading of the game, but caught out a couple of times. Too early to judge him, as it's his first game.

Colo - 6.5 - Comfortable defending.

Willo - 6 - Good enough I suppose.

Santon - 6.5 - Better than he has been recently. Good runs forward, good defending.

Perch - 6.5 - Saved us from going 1-0 down in the first half, good tackling throughout the game, good shift.

Jonas - 5.5 - Awful passing, but decent on the ball.

Anita - 6 - Some good little passes and movement.

Marv - 6.5 - A creative spark in moments, but we couldn't quite make something happen.

Ober - 6 - Can't believe he was taken off as he was our best player in the first half and was beating players and had little moments. He played a big part in two half decent moves.

Cisse - 3 - Only had one chance in the whole game. Couldn't really do anything with the service provided and barely touched the ball.

Cabaye - 6 - Good to see him back. We looked better when we came on. Not fantastic, but a good return.

MOTM - Krul for me. If we weren't gonna create anything, we needed to see the game out, and he was reliable.

Overall - Poor game, but a good point and our first away result in ages. Lets hope we can build on this!!

 

Ok **** faces !!!!!! I'm going to come back after were relagated I can;t take anymore of this defence of Pardew he's outrageous in his reading of football matches and he's lost the dressing room. We are worse tha the team that got relegated.

 

Krul - 8 - Very composed today, caught well, saved well. Good game.

Debuchy - 5 - Got the run around because Ober was ****. Was ok.

Colo - 7.5 - Good defending.

Willo - 3 - Absolute **** passing wise. Hoof it away everytime is the tactic yeah Mike? His marking saves him getting a negative score. Just horrible. He constantly heads it away under no pressure, he's just pathetic.

Santon - 8 - Brilliant today for me.

Perch - 7.5 - Very good. Best midfielder easily

Jonas - 2 - What a hopeless numpty he was. Abysmal passing. Like Willo, saved by some passable defending. Horrifying Pardew kept him on.

Anita - 4 - Pretty crap today. Crossing bad, passing square not forward, just his poorest game for us in my opinion.

Marv - 6 - Tried his best, looked better than some of the other crap.

Ober - 3 - What a woefully laxidaisical player. Looked uninterested, didn't close down his man, lurked around like a sulky teenager. Just shocking.

Cisse - 3 - WTF has happened to him?

Cabaye - 5 - I'll just echo the "Good to see him back" thoughts.

 

if you got nowt constructive to say, say nowt

 

Try reading the entire post sir? are you going to tell me on the basis of litterraly every game this season that Pardew read the game well? everytime he makes subs I litterally gasp . eh waht I say??? am I mad or is the man beyond fathom.

 

We are the same team which got us 5th last season (ok minus Ba now )

 

Pardew ****ed about too much and too this season and burst his and the players bubbles. Players are all unhappy and he is responsible as the manager to sort things out. He risked Ben Arfa when we had injuries already and he's getting subs wrong every game which is a record in my eyes, he also thinks Jonas is CM player all of a sudden. The man is an idiot and you can see why he gets sacked second season because he simply loses it - I think it's perhaps the pressure.

This isn't a new thing I'm not leaping to conclusions I did that months ago and thus far I was right to.

 

Watching your board for a while and I have to defend you here, no matter how negative you have been and no matter how much you have pissed people off. You have so far been correct in your predictions and what you have been saying. For the rest of the posters going against you, its a case of truth hurts.

 

Pfft... Yeah ok... He predicted a Cisse hattrick today!

 

A point was a good result today and it could have been none. Krul MOTM for his one save that could have cost us the game but Colo was a very close second, without him on the pitch today we could have been stuffed.

Pardew's subs always bother me but bar Cabaye we have development players on the bench so there's not much he could have done today to be fair to him.

Its a clean sheet away from home with Reading and Villa to come. Onwards and upwards (hopefully)!

 

Objectively I would have been pleased with a point at the beginning of the game. Context of performance and other results are what made it so incredibly disappointing, I think. If we can't beat a team who have played that poorly, that's not good!

 

I'll take a point, it breaks the bad habit of loosing.

 

You mean lackadaisical?

I agree at least it shows we tightend up.

 

Just call me if you need someone (who's never been in the Netherlands) to correct you on your use of sex

 

So Gandalf the White Wizzard is white because he masturbates all the time and is too lazy to wash his clothes or his horse?
That explains why he never has a girlfriend in the movies and the books, what a filthy bastard!

 

Have you not seen the Hobbit yet...? Best bit for me was the saucy looks between Gandalf and Galadriel... Culminating in her saying "if you need me, I'll come"... Predictably, I was the only person who laughed

 

You weird, dirty minded, little ****er
