Not normally one to stick up for Pardew but watching MOTD it seems he was a little unlucky today. Two screamers from Jelavic and Diame. It seems he knows he's out the door, looks so defeated in interviews. Hard to pinpoint where it has gone wrong for him but it seems he hasn't been as trusted by Mike Ashley recently. After they lost Cayabe there hasn't really been a leader or a proper quality player there.
