Beren Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I love how everyone is changing their tact because he's coming back before he left he was a liability and wanted him sold now he's the savior He's been bad this season there's no getting around that, if he suddenly improves his performance then fair play but i don't think its certain he will come back and perform because he's surrounded by better players. He was hot and cold last season and he's been bad this, really an example of a player being away for a while and suddenly being hyped up to something he isn't. Fair play if he comes back and performs and i will admit i was wrong but i fail to see where all this confidence is coming from. He's obviously miles better than Perch though, bad performances or not but fact is Perch shouldn't be playing anyway. Fairly broad brush you're using there, Mole.

jdckelly Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 hope Ivory Cost failing (again) at the ACN doesn't get him too down and he can meet the new lads and get his old confidence back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I don't think the guy can run a midfield on his own but think there's every chance he can come back to form with the new personnel around him. Needs to keep it simple and stop playing like a moron though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Tiote is going to be incredible. No question about it. He will be coming back to a team where people actually show for the ball, and there is movement. He'll be brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 He won't be brilliant if he tries to do it all on his own and picks up a booking every week. You'd hope that won't be the case though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to keep it simple and stop playing like a moron though. Exactly. The likes of Cabaye, Sissoko, Gouffran and Ben Arfa (when he comes back) playing mean he can stop overdoing it and get back to his bread and butter of winning it and giving it on. The pressure is not there to hold it or bring it forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smal Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 He also needs to be used in fewer games. No point whatsoever in him playing against the likes of Fulham and Soton at home. Benefits nobody but the opposition. Southampton probably not the best example. He's been really, really poor this season and for a fair bit before then too. I'm not overly eager to see him back in the team ahead of people like Anita and Marveaux who have played well this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Lord give me strength ... Why would he try to do it on his own with Cabaye and Sissoko in the midfield with him? People are being way to harsh with Tiote. At least he isn't a coward, shirking responsibility. He actually tries to make things happen. Not his fault he was being played in a midfield two with inexperienced partners while Cabaye was out. He's at his best in a midfield three, and will give pass the ball well, and on time when people show for it. Have people forgotten how bad our movement was when Ba and Cisse were being played up top in a 4-4-2? I will bump this thread continuously to show up all you doubters when he comes back and is outstanding! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tioté has been poor for much longer than just this season though, unlike the majority of the rest of the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have Marveaux ahead of him in half of our remaining fixtures, personally. I probably would too, I think Cabaye, Sissoko and Marveaux/Anita can work out the defensive aspect of the game between them. Should basically be picking the midfield based on form alone for the majority of games and Marveaux/Anita are pretty unfortunate not to be in the side at the minute.

I think there's a lot of truth in this, and ill be thinking along the same lines until the 4th minute of his return and he picks up a daft yellow.
