Oakie Doke Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 very encouraging performance, looks like he could be one hell of a player as his pre-season form suggested. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Has pace to burn, strong, big, good shot, good passer. Needs to calm down at times, but very, very useful. How about we drop one of our (at the time) horrible wingers and play 4-3-3 with Haris, Tioté and Cabaye behind Best, Ba and Hatem? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Clearly not a central midfielder, but has technique and quality in abundance. We'll probably never seen him in a system playing to his strengths under Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crumpy Gunt Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Probably the one big positive tonight after Ba's goals. He never stopped trying to make himself available mainly to be ignored constantly. Must be close to covering the most ground tonight. Sweet left peg and nearly pulled a stunner out the hat.

Guest H09 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Had 3 great efforts, should play off the front man though rather than in the middle of a 442 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 One of the only good things about tonight was the performance of Vuckic, I hope he now gets the run of games he deserves. I've seen him quite a few times for the reserves and kids but didn't expect the performance he gave us tonight. I thought that he would look good, he was even better than that as he played a major part in the game for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Snrub Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 He can't turn, can't pass, can't shoot and can't see. He's as bad as Smith. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VaVaVoom Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Bags of potential in a triumvirate of him, Tiote and Cabaye. I felt from the word go that the latter two would both work better in a midfield three, what with Barton still being at the club. They're each a different sort of player that have attributes that could bounce off each other nicely. Tiote the defensive holder, Cabaye the box-to-box stamina machine who retains possession, Vuckic with the all-out-attack mindframe. Jonas, Ben Arfa and Ba all ahead of them... That looks extremely good on paper. ---Krul--- Simpson---Taylor---Coloccini---Santon Cabaye---Tiote---Vuckic Ben Arfa-------Ba-------Jonas Would be a fuckin beautiful line up......Williamson in place for Taylor whilst he's out.

ponsaelius Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 He's a quality player, but we really missed Cabaye's defensive work today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icemanblue Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 He's a quality player, but we really missed Cabaye's defensive work today. Aye, he's never a central midfielder.

John P Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Just me who thought he wasn't that great? He has quality on the ball, but positionally he was all over the place for a central midfielder, tiote was almost playing centre mid by himself at times. Showed promise with his long range efforts and obviously has talent, but he shouldn't be playing centre mid, leaves us far too exposed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
