David28 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Alot better without Cabaye. Likes being the main man. Yep. His fitness is a worry still. At home Guthrie's probably a better bet than Yohan on this display. Don't really agree with saying who's better. I think it would be great if we did it the same way Man Utd do it - rotating the players around. Cabaye, Tiote and Guthrie - on the form of recent - are on about the very same level and have their different strenghts and weaknesses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Alot better without Cabaye. Likes being the main man. Yep. His fitness is a worry still.

I think it would be great if we did it the same way Man Utd do it - rotating the players around. Cabaye, Tiote and Guthrie - on the form of recent - are on about the very same level and have their different strenghts and weaknesses. Guthrie's been more of a creative, architect like player this season. Although he tries hard, he just doesn't have the legs and bite of a Cabaye. Hence saying he's a better bet at home.

Nobody Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Tiote will probably be away a month next season as well, absolute necessity that we get him on a new contract. He's been great, and today he was fucking immense. Worked his bollocks off, great passing and could have had two assists. Fair play for proper stepping up this season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 He's improved his stamina immeasurably. A couple seasons ago, you'd have forgotten he was on the pitch in that game by around the 70 minute mark. Tireless and tenacious, and a bit of quality too. Massive player for us at the moment.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 He has been playing really well and looks a much better player these days. He was my MOTM today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wil Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Been absolutely brilliant this season and a vital player in the squad. Great to have someone of his class contesting the midfield. Hope we are generous enough to secure him with a good deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Excellent performance today. Worked really hard and made some great passes Having Perch alongside him gave him a bit more freedom in the middle too - gave him more reason to attack and be more of an influence.

Fenham Mag Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 He earned his nickname today, The Shrewbury Iniesta. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Looking full of confidence the last few weeks and I think that's the major factor as he's always been one of our best midfielders technically. The only game I really saw him struggle this season was against Chelsea where Ramirez was just too fast for him. We haven't really missed Cabaye in the last couple of games so he's doing a sterling job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Good game, but he was very much struggling to track back after about 60 minutes. I know it's not his game really, but he lacks athleticism and stamina. Still, he's filled in well for Cabaye and he's been great on the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EthiGeordie Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Can't belive he is free to talk to other clubs. I am sure he is trying to get a new deal here or somewhere else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Very good today, though he still switches off defensively a bit at times. Really thought we benefited today having one true DM and one more attack minded player. Perch never got near the Villa box and it really gave Guthrie license to play further forward. Sometimes I think that we lack that definition with our CM's, especially when Guthrie and Cabaye play together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Excellent performance again. Gets stuck in, brilliant passer, crosser and has a shot on him. Really should be considered when Cabaye gets back, he's been a key player this season with his performances. Definately MOTM today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Short and Curlies Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Probably due a littel knock in the next couple of weeks. We never seem to have to make a decision between Guthrie, Tiote and Cabaye for too long as ones always out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Man of the Match by a mile. Impressed that he lasted all 90 minutes too, his improvement has been remarkable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
