Interesting to see people judging Pulis based off his record at Boro, but for Pardew it's "well, it's not his side is it?"
The thing is, you look at the side under Monk and look at the side under Pulis, there have been a number of changes. A lot of the players Monk bought in for big money last summer have been binned off, either on loan or permanent, while the less talented players such as Gestede have come in from the cold.
Same as our place, he didn't know how to use the more talented members, so he's binned them off or stuck them on the bench.
