Although in theorey what you are saying is possibly right.
The future of the team is in Pardew's hands and has nothing really to do with the Swiss.
He choses the players and tactics they just provide the environment to work.
Obviously if we had a differeent manager the team would play in another way possibly better possibly worse.
But at the moment things are looking OK but nothing more whether this team is going to get us promoted soon is something we will have to wait for.
I am still not certain what the current regimes goals actually are as we do not appear to be building a team with the CCC in mind
