Cheick Tioté (1986–2017)


Recommended Posts

We look a far better team with an up for it and on his game Tiote in it. Shame he's hardly shown that form for the past couple of years.

 

He was Pardewed.

You would think that the one player that couldn't really be Pardewed would be a hard working defensive midfielder. But alas, Pardew found a way to try and make him into something he isn't and fucked him up in the process.

Injuries hasn't helped him either mind, feels like he hasn't been fully fit for two or three years.

Since Shelvey and Saivet don't seem to be the answer we're absolutely desperate for Tiote to play well. Nothing functions if the midfield gets played through as easily as it has been. Moving Sissoko inside might have helped too.

Yep, when Pardew came out with the 'he can be Michael Essien bollocks'. Never been the same since, until tonight.

Such a frustrating player.  Based on the second half, that is as well as he's played for us in years, possibly since his debut away at Everton.  But he only seems to turn up for games against the big boys, or his style just suits those games.  The fact that he is AWOL for most of the season and then when he does play, looks overweight, uninterested and s***.

 

If he plays like that for the rest of the season.  I don't think we'll concede too many from open play.

Did narf get stuck into Bony in a couple of aerial challenges and had him proper rattled.

Absolutely outstanding last night and looked like the Tiote we used to have.

 

Fair play to him, he looks up for the fight.

Aye, battle that. Put some determined challenges into Yaya early doors too. Think he wanted to show his international team mates and his country that he can mix it with the best they have.

Absolutely brilliant so far today. Breaking up Palace attacks, playing the simple ball.

 

He's like a new signing.

He's always in the right place at the right time under Rafa. Keeps us ticking and holding possession.  Not getting the silly cards as much either. Plays the holding role that Rafa uses so well.

Just one more example of what coaching can do really. The way we've wasted and degraded players is absolutely criminal.
