As if there are people who don't instantly agree with Ronaldo. What fools.

 

Instantly? We're talking about a player who's been an utter liability for years and has no discernible PL-level footballing attributes. I really do hope this is just an act and you're not quite this stupid in reality.

Tiote has had his time, thought we should have shipped him this summer and kept Abeid. Colback and Tiote is still pretty close call though. Neither should be starting, I know that for sure. Anita is comfortably better than both.

Why do people always have to be thick or stupid man? [emoji38]

 

Unfortunately there aren't too many other words for people who continue to defy basic common sense. Even you've figured out Tiote's useless and you were his no.1 fan a couple of years back.

Off with the hyperbole again. Fairly confident I said little more than with good coaching he could be an effective PL player again. Still not even sure that's not the case, though evidence at the moment suggests not.

I think his time has come and gone tbh especially as a starting CM. With good coaching though he might be an effective player to bring on when we need to just shut her down, as with the game at OT. If he starts games again he'll just start to believe his own hype again and be back to his old-new self.

 

Mind you, I'd have the old Tiote in place of Colback alongside Anita every day of the week.

I agree that tiotes performances have being mostly poor over last couple of seasons but considering the alternatives there's no denying that's there's not much between them. I think for the likes of the game today I would certainly prefer him than colback

He is s***, that's what's wrong.

 

he looks a better player as every game goes by with Anita and Colback plodding around doing sweet FA in the middle of the park,  the sooner he get fit (properly match fit) the better cos the team is desperate for him in the middle of the park. 

 

For those people who say he's crap, picks up too many bookings etc, well we are a better team with him in it and Colback picks up just as many bookings but at least when Tiote gets one he is nailing an opponent and not just grabbing a shirt!

And I would still have him in ahead of pinky and perky who are playing at the moment. We have an abundance of s**** midfielders.

 

I think Neville nailed it when he said he couldn't understand what our midfield was supposed to be doing yesterday. They weren't defending effectively, weren't attacking and in just about every game so far this season they have been dominated despite going with a 5 man midfield.

If he's suddenly energetic, look like he can protect the back 4 and so on then fair enough. But i haven't seen anything but someone who is never in position, lacks energy compared to before so doesn't cover the same amount of ground and overall is just bad.

 

Seen nothing for the last few seasons to suggest any different.

So is he injured? Not being on the bench yesterday would suggest something is wrong.

 

This is from the Daily Mail article about Cisse...

 

"Cisse is not the only player causing concern. His close friend Cheick Tiote is another who wanted to quit St James’ Park this summer. The Ivory Coast midfielder was missing from the squad at West Ham and there are questions about his commitment."

It makes you wonder why we didn't get rid then. I think Cisse will be sold in January because we will probably be able to get Austin for about £7-8m, then £4-5m for Cisse will look a lot better. Don't know what the hell is going on with Tiote as far as a move is concerned. If he's not playing what's the point in hanging on to him?
