England squad if he carries on as is?

 

I think I've underestimated how well he's playing simply because it's Guthrie. He's probably been better than Cabaye recently, and that's no criticism of Cabaye.

Guthrie's been playing better than Cabaye for a fairly long time tbh. Saying that, Guthrie still has issues about providing protection for the back-four, it's just not in his game, whereas Cabaye has much more of a motor and can put a defensive shift in. Probably why Cabaye is sacrificed for the DM role when the two play together.

don't agree, he's been marginally better  of late on the ball but doesn't get through half the defensive/off the ball  work cabaye does.

The thing I like about Guthrie is the fact he always wanting the ball, he's always available to take the ball and move it forward. He spreads the ball around and is always an option for another player and as a teammate, that's what you want to see.

 

Takes the pressure off you and lets you pass and move too. Thumbs up today :)

Would be very harsh to drop him for the Wolves game with Tiote and Cabaye back.

 

Harsh but likely.

 

I have a feeling Pardew is going to play all 3, with Ba and Jonas either side of Cisse.

BBC: 'Some times you just have to find the right club' after they'd made him sound like some kind of journey man. He's been here nearly four years :lol:.

 

:lol: FFS.  He was at Liverpool before us and had a couple of loans.

 

I'm really glad he's playing as he is.  I did find it quite strange how last season was such a non-event for him, he'd been such a pivotal player in the promotion season and I wasn't with these people who said he wasn't a Premier League player.

i'd like to play all 3 but that would be harsh on jonas.
