Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

before i start...i agree hes has been dissapointing since joining. but... there are obvious reasons for this as hes played almost every minute for us on wrong side of the pitch...whenever he has played well in his career he has played on the right hand side of the pitch and been effective cutting in. all of a sudden hes been asked to play out of position and he cant do it well, some players can easily adapt but he cant. also i would point out if you watch our games this season it almost seems to me that we are making more space for wilf to play in on the right hand side of the pitch and whenever andros gets the ball it seems to be very congested on the left hand side and its harder to operate in. he needs to perform better thats probably the only thing every fan on this site 100% agree on at the mo, but also he needs more minutes on the pitch, and maybe him & wilf swap sides for the watford game and lets see what he can do. he is a very very good player, and it will work at palace given time. For me the issue isn't his contribution going forward, I think he's really lazy. I don't think Kelly's a better player just on the right hand side of defence, I think he benefits from getting more protection there from Wilf when he's on that side. Townsend's position is very ropey when he's covering back and he seems to always put himself in a position where he can be taken out of the game with a simple pass. That's why I think Pardew has lost patience with him, because he's not been working hard enough.

Pardew and Parish must be very satisfied with what they've seen from Townsend so far - he's displaying the sort of form he has for most of his career. What we are seeing is the Andros I've certainly become accustomed to at his various clubs, and consequently the player who has impressed our hierarchy so much to splash out £13m. Pardew and Parish have got exactly what they paid for.

I was happy with the signing, thinking he would bring his England form. Obviously he has not settled. For a 25 Year old he has played for a lot of clubs already. 12 !!!! 9 on loan. Is reminding me of Wayne Routledge. Hopefully he improves along with the team in the second half of the season. That many! ...could soon be ten! ...and everyone can see why, shame he can't.
