Pearson is a gift to the opposition.

[Lord Edgington]

Maybe he's thinking about his move to the premier league with the rest of the big four.

The same as my desire to appear in the next Hollywood blockbuster as the next stud muffin !

Since Pearson took that nasty edge out of his game, his performance levels has dipped, without question.

It's a fine line.

Nice to see Pearson having a chat with that nasty Mr Stroud at one point in the game.The Pearson of old would have been in his face full stop.IMO Pearson had a decent game today.

 

[Bobbage]

As the title says. He slows the game down, passes negatively, and never drives us forward. Opposition teams must love him.

Is that you in the Wigan shirt Dave?

 

[White Horse 44]

Ledson far better today Pearson shockingly disinterested feigning injury whenever he msses a ball or challenge.

 

[Jason Harris]

I think it’s fair to say Pearson isn’t playing well. Hasn’t controlled games as he usually does since the restart in June.

 

[Lee Trundle]

Top defensive midfielder who is going through his first bad patch in what? 4 Years?

He remains a quality asset that other managers routinely praise and credit, although I will say that maybe it feels a little like Cunningham towards the end. Potentially time to move on and let him have an opportunity to play in a more ambitious side

Pearson played a significant role in suppressing the threat of Wilson this afternoon- arguably the key role for a defensive midfielder against Cardiff.

Game did need a DJ today

Where, when and from who did the phrase "the big four" originate from?
Asking for a friend who thinks it's bollocks.

 

[MrHodgeheg123]

Just watching another team who play in the same colours as us.
One can dream.

In short, shut the fuck up you clueless moron.

Pearson is critical to everything. Today he was miles off it and it showed. When he's on it (which is 95% of the time) then he's our biggest asset. His usual energy was missing and the game bypassed him today for some reason.

I love your positivity but 95% ??

Pearson is excellent as playing as a defensive shield for the back 4, IF the side is balanced, the midfield was out played by pace and counter attacking football, which was very well done by cardiff, they countered the way PNE play from the off, we couldn’t or wouldn’t adapt And didn’t have someone who could unlock them.

other than DJ and Gallager sat on the bench, Harrop not in the squad.

the creativity and that’s the real issue was left to Rudd punting it at stockley Who was up against two centre backs sat back smoking a relaxing cigar.

Neil is the biggest gift to the opposition

I suspect that there is a lot going on in his head at the moment..... contract negotiations et al..

I suspect he is not fully focussed....
