If we have the basis of a good team why haven't we seen it on the pitch? Why the loss to an inferior Burnley and West Ham? Why can't Pardew see the SIMPLE CHANGES that need to be made in game like during the Leicester City match? Why weren't the shortcomings of the squad Pardew himself was putting out addressed? Either during this summers transfer window, the January transfer window, or the previous summer transfer window, or the previous January transfer window. When the likes of Alex McCarthy (Southampton), Bakary Sako (Championship level player), Connor Wickham (Consistently hurt or looks disinterested also should've been Charlie Austin), and Jordon Mutch were brought in. So for that and a litany of other reasons I say Pardew should be sacked. All you have is we made the FA Cup finals and nearly won, but we lost (HEARTBREAKING) and it was a HEARTBREAKER I will give you that. But that's NOOOOO reason for Pardew to keep his job through the HORRIBLE run of 2016, a run that I might add he caused by not getting the right players to implement the system he wanted.

Willo i'm surprised at you,behave yourself !

Interesting points; I am not convinced that he still has all of the dressing room. For me he is weak on man management and tactical ability, 2 things essential in any PL manager with a growing number of highly priced players in their team.
He needs to strengthen these areas and quickly which of course may be why he has been in the US over the break? This would also involve a long hard look at himself and implement change.

Bring back Brolin
