Alan Pardew has had Newcastle consistently in the top flight while selling his best players every season. Palace are looking stay up as a minimum. For their needs, he has the credentials
Sherwood didn't set the world on fire at Spurs but he was solid enough. Again, for what Villa need at the moment, he ticks the boxes

We are in the relegation fight or, if you want to exceedingly generous, we're on the cusp of falling in. Denial of this fact does not help in this situation. Neither does panicking.
