Patience will be the key term for Newcastle against Benfica, says Alan Pardew Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew Alan Pardew has informed a sold-out St Jamesa Park that apatiencea is the key word ahead of their broad clash with Benfica on Thursday night a with the Newcastle United boss warning: aIf we get gung-ho a weall be killed.a Goals are needed at least two by united to keep their desires alive in the Europa League against a Benfica part which have now gone 31 activities unbeaten. It's been 12 months considering that the Lisbon giants last tasted defeat in the Portuguese top flight. However, the Magpies do have what can prove to be a very important absent goal in the lender. With the overall game poised at 3-1 to Benfica following the first leg, Pardew told the Chronicle: aOur supporters need to understand on Thursday, in the quarter-final of the Europa League, that if we go gung-ho looking for two rapid goals, weare only likely to get killed. Real quality was got by atheyave on the break. aWeave got to be very intelligent and weave surely got to be patient.a Pardewas team have gained a reputation to themselves to be late purpose authorities, with Papiss Cisse doing the key in stoppage time four times this season. Which was the key to knocking out Anzhi Makhachkala in the last 16, and Pardew even dared to suggest the game is likely to be at its most harmful if United find one goal around the 70-minute mark. The United manager said: aWe know very well what weare like by the end of games. Shock simply need to get ourselves in a great place. aIf we can get yourself a goal with 20 minutes to go, we can get it done a' thatas the agenda for me.a It is a week for Pardew and his soldiers because they make an effort to break up their schedule to cater for both the last-eight conflict with Benfica and, of course, the Tyne-Wear derby with Sunderland. Pardew said: aSunday protects it self. We know what itas about.a And Pardew also thinks that his team have now been victims of these own success in Europe with the game with Sunderland giving them little time to get ready. But, it's surely a predicament that Unitedas nasty opponents want to be in themselves. Pardew said: aIad rather perhaps not (have the overall game this week). aBut then would I rather have the quarter-final of the Europa League? Yes, I'd. aWe might have a splendid week.a Newcastle must keep coming back from two goals right down to stand any possibility of seeing off Jorge Jesusa unbeaten and somewhat arrogant Benfica side. Pardew, though, has belief and added: aItas only been done twice, Iam told. aSteaua Bucharest and Fulham, actually. Weall see what we are able to do.a
