Holden McGroin 4810 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) Yeah. People work for bosses who are imbeciles everyday. Look at CT. He's self-employed don't ya know. I did say "quality" implying that Cabaye has talent. Edited July 10, 2015 by Holden McGroin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26168 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Why would he think he was a "fucking joke?" I wouldn't perform well and then follow my boss to another company if he was a complete tool. My point was that he could have been blind to Pardew's faults due to the fact that Pardew set the team up around Cabaye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 8947 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Why would he think he was a "fucking joke?" I wouldn't perform well and then follow my boss to another company if he was a complete tool. Because the tactics, the coaching and the behaviour of Alan Pardew are turbo shit? You can't apply normal work policy to football though, can you. Cabaye knows that he can perform in the Premier League, he knows that Pardew will play him and afford him more license to play as he wants, he knows that this is his best chance of getting into the France before 2016 and he knows that his bank balance is going to be £100k a month better off (before tax obvs).

Holden McGroin 4810 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) The team did remarkably well when Cabaye was in it. Then Ashley sells him without replacing him and suddlenly we struggle. Does that make Pardews decision to make him the focal point correct or not? Edited July 10, 2015 by Holden McGroin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34166 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 It's absurd to think that he would willingly come and play for a manager who he feels is incompetent. I wonder about some of you at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes Pardew's inability to get the rest of the team to perform without an obviously talented Cabaye a tacit admission of his failings as a manager and coach.

All conjecture. If anything you could see the players actually played for Pardew. Compare that to Carvers stint for example and he seemingly completely lost the dressing room. It depends how you look at it. Some come from the angle of the players are shite stand point and others are blaming coaching. In my point of view, if you take a step back and have a look at it, Pardew would have hit Ashleys targets every year. Thats not to say I dont think he should have left. I just think he did a reasonable job with the constraints he was under. It was time for change as the whole club was stagnant but lets be clear, the core problem of this club is Mike Ashley. I think putting Jose Mourinho in charge we'd be around mid table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think putting Jose Mourinho in charge we'd be around mid table. I think Pardew could have met Ashley's target too, but that's more to do with the quality of the players that were foisted upon him, being enough to paper the cracks in his own ability. I think putting Mourinho in charge we'd have been challening for the Europa league spots as a minimum. Look what he did with a fairly average crop of players at Porto.

Holden McGroin 4810 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Ha. Dont get me wrong. I thought his time was up but I dont think he isn't the managerial prat people think he is. That was evident when we actually had a prat in charge after him. Its just not sustainable to sell your best players without replacing them then expect a similar league position.
