Don’t know why people keep saying we were passing a lot under de boer. may have been his philosophy but we never had any of the ball. got torn to shreds by huddersfield, wasn’t any passing from where i was sitting The problem was we never had the players to play the FdB way. It was like asking Danny Dyer to play Hamlet

Many on HOL were vehemently against suggestions of Roy being appointed manager in the close season. With hindsight..........

Previously we have had managers who picked players irrespective of form or ability. We now have a manager who picks players based on training regimen. No real surprise that the disappearance of Punch and Hennessey has seen our resurgence.

De Boer was a disaster of an appointment. Most of the other problems came from there including transfer business.

For some reason people only seem to remember Roy for his time with England and Liverpool (where I actually thought he was harshly treated) Fact is, for many years he's been a very competent and respected manager/coach across Europe. I've just had a read of the Leicester city forum. To be fair to them they on the whole rated us and agreed that we were by far the better team and deserved the win. Some of them though still had a problem with losing to a Roy Hodgson team. This I don't get. I was expecting earlier from them. All they did Walloon for the ball over the top forvardys pace and that was never going to work. In other trust.
Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!! |

Because December 19th 2 years ago we beat stoke 2-1 at their place and went to 5th in the league, pardew was talking about being England manager and we dropped until big Sam came in. He saved us and then left (shows unrest) De boer came in and dragged us to hell and now Roy has come in and I agree with you , levelled things off but I think this goes back to pardew ripping the soul out the squad at the time Ludicrous. Pardew had an impossible job at Newcastle but he still kept them together and effective - evidenced by their complete collapse without him. As for us under pardew this is like a stuck record. Just check the correlation between injuries from Xmas 2015 and our performances. He did as good as he could with what little he had - cup final and survival. However he can't be wholly blamed for the managements failure to get a lb that summer; or blamed at all for papas car crash that made the difference. The "pardew effect" is a non existent fiction.

You cannot overlook the effect negative Pardew had on CPFC.

Aside from the De Boer issues, having a fit Wilfred Zaha has made a huge difference. His performances and commitment levels have been out of this world this season.
