Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 He needs to stop trying to pirouette around a player twice before releasing the ball. Just fucking release it. He used to be able to do it, and do it well. Opened up all new space for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and when he was on form doing it he looks the most assured player on the pitch, but this season I'm shitting it every time he picks it up on the edge of the box.

Gallowgate Toon Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Is he playing ahead of Cabaye? He was for a while against Fulham and looked awful. When they switched a bit, we played a lot better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 He seemed to have forgotten what to do with a ball when its at his feet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Dithers terribly on the ball to the extent that every time he had the ball in the second half, I began to panic. Needs his arse kicking and to be told that the season started last month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggs Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Just can't understand what's happen. But I don't like it. Off to play with Gyan in the U.A.E No just lack of form i hope Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Just can't understand what's happen. But I don't like it. Off to play with Gyan in the U.A.E No just lack of form i hope I still say he's already been snuck off, money in Del and Fat Boy's back pockets, and that's Smith.

Guest MrSundlofer Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 He's not very vocal on the pitch is he? Neither is Cabaye. Barton was. Nolan was. I remember Tioté told the press that Nolan helped him a lot last season and was looking forward playing with him this season. Then we sold him. And then Barton.

Ameritoon Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I still have a confidence that he'll return to his former self. Only four games into the season, a lot more time for him to get back on pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to admit I do worry about the overall lack of vocal leadership. We may have a few that, on form, could lead performance-wise, but we've got no one shouting, egging on, generally making themselves be heard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I still have complete faith in Tiote. When he gets match fit again, when he gets his sharpness back, he'll dominate. I honestly think it's his shitty pre-season (and possibly ramadan) that accounts for his poor performances. And let's not forget the loss of good 'outlets' in Enrique and Barton - when he gets the ball, he doesn't have the same quality of player to pass to. Raylor and Obertan don't match up, I'm afraid. Hopefully Marveux and Santon will. Few times today he seemed like he didn't know where to pass/find anybody open and lost the ball cause of that, as he clearly doesn't like to kick it long. But I'm sure he'll come good again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Tiote will be OK once he gets some movement around him and we stop treating the ball as if it was highly explosive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowen Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Well below his high standards tonight but by virtue of being the only person who offers for the ball in tight spaces he often found himself in a tight space with nobody wanting the ball from him. Could have laid it off to the centre back a couple of times when he tried to be too clever but it must be frustrating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChicagoMagpie Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Disrupted pre-season. He will be back to his best soon. Said we should have sold him to Man U for 14 mill in the Summer, and I think he's proving me right. The next Wilson Palacios. And replace him with who? we would not have replaced him, so i take it you prefer Alan Smith ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 He's definitely off the pace, but deserves lots of faith after last season. We were overrun by a hard pressing team yesterday, so it was hard work for the lads in the middle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRC Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I just think we should cash in when his stock is high. If the guy ends up being a one season wonder (Muntari, Faye, Reo Coker) We are stuck with him for the next 6 years on a ridiculously high wage. Although we would have to replace him obviously. Just my opinion and I hope I'm wrong. Quote me at Xmas time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
