5 wins in 2016 isn't really knee jerk. Can understand concerns, but just as concerning is changing manager so early in the season. Villa just keep cropping up in my thought process. Last season's numbers are a red herring in this debate. New season, different team, different tactics & different opposition. This thread is spot on. In fact, you could say we're one win from 9th. If AP can get this year's attack working with last years defence then we'll be fine.
Will this be five? It's gonna be five! It IS five! |

I'm with you but there are too many plastics who can't get to the toilet quick enough cause their arses are bubbling over a few losses cause they don't understand what it's like to support a small club punching above our weight. I know we have defensive problems but not the right time to panic. is there anything worse than a smug "you're not a Palace fan unless you agree with me" post?

Nice thread, good to read there are a lot of sensible fans out there. I think the Pardew out are largely sensible. They just have a different pov to you and I Too much emotion on both sides at times.

Which is exactly why Pardew is trying to change the style of our play. Revert to a Pulis type or a Fat Sam and that's all we are doing, wanting "survival" at all costs. Notice they are only four teams that have scored more goals than us this season?

As someone said earlier, if the players stop playing for us, then I'll start worrying. That clearly isn't happening, and in no game this season have we looked utterly f***ed against the opposition. Dann and Tomkins will sort something out, eventually, as they're solid Prem players. Full-backs are a concern for me, and I think that is our next area for improvement... god, imagine if we had kept Clyne!

After 11 matches we are 2 points off 10th place , having played 5 home games and 6 away compared to teams like Leicester and West Ham who have had the benefit of the extra home game. There are only 4 teams in the league who have scored more goals than us And people are saying there are no reasons for Pardew to keep his job. Well in that case the following should all be sacked; Eddie Howe - 16 points from his last 19 premiership games Pardew has 20 points from his last 19 premiership games Koeman for losing 0-5 at Chelsea Ranieri, Bilic and Puel for all having teams that qualified for Europe last season , yet are currently 14th, 17th and 10th respectively. Well that's 8 premiership managers that are relatively currently underperforming Pardew at the moment , but we have to be the bed wetters like Newcastle,Fulham,Villa who pull the trigger too early ? Pardew's mandate should be to keep us up ( and possibly a good cup run). He did both last year and the former the year before. He kept Newcastle up for 4 seasons and soon as they let him go they were relegated. There is no reason why he won't repeat the same , particularly with the team we have now. And you can add to that that our net spend in the transfer window was £8.8 million, the 16th least spend in the premiership, lower than Bournemouth and Stoke who both had over twice that .Also you can add Moyes with a net spend of over £20 million to the list of managers currently underperforming Pardew .So that is actually 9,and Mourinho with a net spend of over £150 million, but only 7 points more, could make it 10 ! Edited by kennys boots 79 (06 Nov 2016 10.27pm) Edited by kennys boots 79 (07 Nov 2016 8.18am) Most sensible post of the season. Bravo.
