The College Dropout Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I hope all this is true about Sissoko. Personally, i'm on the fence with him. Most B2B aren't so poor in possession as Sissoko is at AM. But he can't continue to play so poorly anyway so onwards and upwards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 http://www.dailystar.co.uk/football/view/319952/? CHEICK TIOTE DECLARES LONG-TERM FUTURE TO NEWCASTLE CHEICK TIOTE has given boss Alan Pardew a timely boost by declaring his intent to stay at Newcastle for the long term. While team-mates Yohan Cabaye and Papiss Cisse have, in the past week, cast doubts on their Toon futures, the Ivory Coast midfielder has no thoughts about moving on. Indeed, after indifferent form last term, Tiote wants to lead Newcastle’s charge up the table in the forthcoming campaign. “I will be a Newcastle player next season and want to play here for many years to come,” he said. “Last year was difficult but we can again challenge for Europe.” Yippeeeeee!!!

toontownman Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 The one player most people could care less about selling... Still think and hope he will turn it around and become the beast once again. All dependent on Pardew growing a brain and using him as he should be used. We shall see. To be fair to Tiote he has been almost an unofficial vice captain, always seems to be first in the press to talk up the club and stick up for it or players in hard times. If he actually played with the level head that he uses for his PR exercises we might see him back to his best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I would keep him easily, dont think he is as bad as people make out. Was being asked to do to much last season. Yes he gives ball away a bit but mostly from trying to retain it when there is no movement in front of him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he gives ball away a bit but mostly from trying to retain it when there is no movement in front of him He should be played strictly as a ball winning midfielder. When he's got that role he manages to cover huge areas of the pitch defensively as well. That way, you could give Cabaye, Sissoko and Ben Arfa more freedom to be involved on the other half of the pitch. It's a mystery that Pardew can't see this (along with a few other things...).

Agree with both. I'm not sure Tiote's decline is down to Pardew asking him to do too much... I would say it's as much to do with the desperation in our side generally and also opponents working out how to pressure him and nick the ball.

Dokko Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 'Shooooooooot' basically ruined him. All he thinks about now is the glory and it will take a stronger manager than Pardew to tell him that isn't his game and to sit back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Last season was just a mess for Tiote. Missed 7 of our first 8 with injury, plays another 4 and then gets sent off and out for 3 more etc Dealing with injury, lack of match fitness & then everyone saying you're a liability when you finally make it back. He went over the top trying to assert himself after a pretty rubbish/unfortunate start to the season. Just needs a good pre season, start afresh & to show the obvious ability he showed not long back.

Ste Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 If he can keep it simple and keep his cool he will be a useful player for us. Don't feel ready to give up on him just yet. In the right set-up, and with confidence back, he'll do well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 He has been gash for a year and a half but if he could understand and be told the right instructions there is no reason why he couldn't be an alright mid-table player for us. His game is pretty much redundant at the top level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexthegreat Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Hopefully he'll be the understudy to a Cabaye - Sissokho partnership and mainly appear from the bench to help finish off games (as Perch often has). Hopefully Anita will develop into something useful as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 He holds onto the ball far too long, picks the wrong pass and has one of the worst shots i've ever seen except one flukey one. Keeps Anita who's a far better player out of the side also because our fucking shit manager feels he needs steel in the middle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I bet everyone says I'm mental but I'd rather we sold this useless gimp than Perch. If the Wonga kit deal is a problem then he can fuck off, I know Wonga are shit but so are players that can't pass the ball 8 yards successfully and who give away so many stupid niggling fouls. If it's not a problem he can do one anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 1. We should this as our excuse the sell the daft cunt. 2. "Muslims are prevented from benefiting from the lending of money under Sharia Law." Assuming this is the problem then what's the problem? Wonga aren't owned by Muslims, and a Muslim shouldn't be using it 'cause it's against their roolz, so what does it matter to anyone? If we were sponsored by Spam, or Magners, or Stella would they be up in arms? Maybe but they shouldn't 'cause all of them are prohibited for Muslims too aren't they? What's next, kicking off 'cause of the Greggs adverts and their sausage rolls? fuckwits Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
