PaddockLad 17242 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Sorry, I thought you meant which game did Sissoko play RW. It's not perpetuating a myth about Pardew, he did play Shola wide right one game. Probably the most ridiculous managerial decision I've ever seen at the club Apart from when Sir Bob did it fairly regularly? Yes, 10 years is a long time... anyway...Liverpool..442.. Elliot Debuchy S.Taylor Yanga-Mbiwa Haidara Perch Tiote Cabaye Sissoko Cisse Gutierrez Who played up front with Cisse then?.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7025 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 It was against Reading at home. 4231 with Shola and Guti on the wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7025 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 What's your issue with this? 52000 fans know Pardew played Shola on the right wing because they saw it in person at the game!? It not my fault you can't remember it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7025 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 iirc that's the game Ian Harte, the geriatric LB, had Shola in his pocket. We had a 6'3 lumbering centre forward, pinned to the touch line, trying to beat the full back for pace to get crosses in for Cisse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 17242 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 He may have played on the right of a front 3, to suggest he played wide right/right wing would imply that the formation was 442. Which apparently it wasnt?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Manson 0 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 That was the only time a team didn't exploit Harte at LB last season too. Ridiculous to lose at home to Reading, regardless of Pardew's crap record against them since leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which apparently it wasnt?... You implied that, not me. Wide right, whether its on the half way line, or 30 yards further up the pitch, is still wide right. As ant says, it's a position that needs pace, a trick, or the ability to cross. None of which Shola possesses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj 17 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 We're in for Downing?! I'd rather go and spend the extra money on Tom Ince. Especially with the way that we operate when you factor their wage difference it would probably be a cheaper deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj 17 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 i actually remember @@Tooj posting something at the time like "if you're a manager who can't identify ian harte as a weakness you're finished, if you play shola on the wing against him, one of the worst managerial decisions from anyone ever" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wide right, whether its on the half way line, or 30 yards further up the pitch, is still wide right. As ant says, it's a position that needs pace, a trick, or the ability to cross. None of which Shola possesses I think Marveux was nominally in to give width on the right v Reading tbh.. Krul Santon Debuchy Williamson Coloccini Cabaye Anita Gutierrez Marveaux Sh.Ameobi Cisse Last season was imperfect to say the least. But lets at least look at what was attempted, not what some folk imagine was in front of them. Shola wasnt solely responsible for putting Iain Harte under pressure that day, not in that system anyway. This system is supposed to be flexible, with players moving all over the place to create space for those coming up from the back such as Santon. And we all know what Shola's movement is like...and we all know how anonymous Marveux can be. He was subbed that day in the 64th minute, suggesting he hadnt really done his job. He was subbed for Perch mind Edited August 6, 2013 by PaddockLad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieMark 0 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 He is a tease mind. I followed him on Instagram on Saturday night, within a minute he had liked two of my photos. He has then went on a bit of a spree of "liking" many NUFC photos, including one of Pardew and a mock up of him in the new kit. I think its all agreed with him and OL, and he wants to come, just agents and OL being funny with each other and causing delays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LooneyToony 41 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Why does the idea of just a one year loan for Remy want to make me puke just a little.

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-distance-themselves-stewart-5668714 Newcastle United are understood to have distanced themselves from talk linking them with out of favour Liverpool winger Stewart Downing.Reports from out sister paper the Liverpool Echo correctly reported that the former Middlesbrough man has been offered to United and other Premier League clubs for a cut price £5million.However, the Chronicle understands that United have played down the approach as they concentrate bringing in another striker.United were continuing discussions to bring in Bafetimbi Gomis from Lyon while talks are also still in progress the bring in Darren Bent.Gomis is thought to be the preferred choice but Bent could well be an option and is a player that Alan Pardew would love to bring to Newcastle after working with the England international at Charlton Athletic.With Newcastle already having Sylvain Marveaux, Jonas, Hatem Ben Arfa, Yoan Gouffran and Hatem Ben Arfa able to operate on the left hand side, the offer of Downing is not thought to be something that is seriously being considered at this moment at St James' Park.Downing's wages of £80,000 per week would also prove to be a major stumbling block with his salary way above the average at United. Does noone (including the man himself) read Ryder's articles before they get published? "out sister paper the Liverpool Echo" "Jonas, Hatem Ben Arfa, Yoan Gouffran and Hatem Ben Arfa" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
