I think what I really enjoy most about Tiote is that he rarely goes to ground for a challenge, he's generally beating the opposition to balls, reading the game and making a challenge, or simply standing his man up and out-muscling him. 

Agreed - he rarely goes for the slide tackle, which I guess you dont really need to do if you have the awareness, positioning anf strength that he has

Quality player

I reckon Foster has been better than Hart

I've got a horrible feeling Tiote is going to be banned when we go to the Stadium of Light,  he's 3 yellows away from a 2 match ban and has to get through Birmingham,  which could be a physical battle,  Man City, again tackles will be flying in with the likes of De Jong, Toure, Barry,  Spurs,  you just know that'll Modric will go flying when Tiote breathes on him,  Wigan and then West Ham.  if he has survived that lot i'd be resting him against Stevenage anyway.

Will be close - bloody sol campbell, his fault Tiote picked up the yellow against Liverpool

Could not have happened to a nicer guy

:mackems: :mackems:

He has been average of late - thought he was quite poor against Liverpool, should have been running at Glen Johnson who is very dodgy defensively

He does help out a lot defensively though so he isnt totally useless as some people make him out to be

Any idea when Kazenga is fit? Would not mind seeing him play a few games

He was brilliant when he came on - gave Liverpool all sorts of problems

I can't stand the guy BUT if he was appointed then reluctantly I would give him a chance, though I think he would get us relegated as I can see the squad morale going down the shitter

 

No.

 

I'm finished with NUFC until he goes, not because I really dislike him, I've just had enough of Ashley now.

 

It feels like I'm wasting precious minutes of my life on the club while Ashley is here.

 

Never thought I'd ever say that. Never.

 

 

 

I can understand that BUT as much as I hate Ashley, I still obviously want the club to win and do well

BUT then you think what is the point when you have a twat in charge who really does not give a shit and appears to have no intention of improving the team, pushing us forward

fat sam said not long ago when he was a quest pundit on one of our matches that it was derek llambias that ran the club not the owner and he sounded like he had abit of beef with him

 

Not sure why Allardyce would have a problem with Llambias?  But anyway, as others have said, he's nothing more than a mouthpiece IMO. The shots are called by Ashley.

 

Didn't Llambias not come to the club until after Allardyce left?

 

Llambias joined in the summer of 2008, Fat Sam was sacked in January of that year

 

Mort was still chairman when Keegan came IIRC.

Aye he was - Mort left in the summer when dodgy derek was appointed

Llambias is a cunt BUT level of cunt-ness pales in comparison to that of Ashley

Ashley owns the club 100% so the final decision is his, whereas Shepherd still had a big stake in the club even if it wasnt the majority

Getting Jol would be a good move BUT Ashley will still be a c*** for sacking Hughton

Absolutely gutted - though not totally shocked that the fat idiot would do such a cuntish thing

I fail to see why he has been sacked - Hughton has done a brilliant job overall and we have done reasonably well in the league, makes no sense BUT then the fat cunt has shown that he doesnt possess much common sense

Why would any decent manager want to work for him?

JFK to return?

He did a wonderful job for us - a real credit he was

In a way he is better off now, not having to work for a vile, horrible cunt

I wish him well and hope he gets a decent job soon

Gutted we didnt get it BUT congrats to both countries  :clap:

The potential is very much there BUT he is still very raw - really needs regular games to up his game, similar to Carroll 18 months ago

It is a bit difficult at the moment BUT a short loan stint would do him the world of good

Who would pay £5-6m when they could sign him on a free in 6-7 months? For which they could agree a deal with taylor in a months time

He just continues to impress each game - even when the team does not play well you get a decent performance from Andy

He has made an amazing amount of progress in the last 12 months, really took his game to another level - I just look forward to the day we play someone like Bent beside him

We've seen recently that we need 4 CBs.

Indeed - Colo, Williamson, Taylor and Sol - good enough for me, plenty of competition

I hope we can keep him - he is a good player and as we have clearly seen recently we do need him

He played well today, his crossing is still poor BUT he beat Cole on a few occasions and played well

Hoping for a Sunderland win today? Or maybe a draw?

A sunderland win - the bigger the gap between us and the teams at the bottom the better

So moyo is still around

You can't play the chance card with Taylor, man. He's had plenty of chances. And has usually ended up on the bench because of his inability to learn.

 

He has ended up on the bench cos he has been getting injured

 

 

 

Don't be so ridiculous, man. Injuries have only been a problem for him in the last year, prior that he's was relatively robust.

 

aye and that is why the seasons prior to that he played 27, 31 and 27 league games - so he didnt really end up on the bench "because of his inability to learn"

 

Souness, Roeder, Allardyce and Kinnear generally picked central defensive partnerships that didn't include him. Roeder had him mostly at FB, Kinnear quickly discovered that he wasn't up to it, as did Souness who even bought Boumsong because of it. Allardyce had him 4th choice behind Faye, Cacapa and Rozenhal.

 

They can't all be wrong. Hughton only started him last season because there was no alternative.

If they all think he is crap then I think it is safe to say he isnt 

Allardyce and Kinnear didnt rate Enrique either - so much so Kinnear was prepared to swap enrique for McManus

Keegan seemed to rate Taylor and he certainly featured in his side
