KaKa Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Palace seem to be very quiet. Hopefully Pardew is pissing them all off behind the scenes, by not co-operating with the scouts, and trying to sign garbage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Hmmm ... McClaren actually seems to have a clue. What? Tiote was earmarked for disposal by the high council a long time ago. Its got fack all to do with McClaren. The main thing is, we are shifting pleyers before we are buying and will potentially miss out on targets because of this reason. Change in policy my arse.

Dave Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Quite happy for us to sell this useless clogger tbh. It's a shame because I do believe he is a pretty good DM, if he's not tasked with doing anything but hold. After Cabaye left he looked hopeless in midfield. I don't think we're in any position to be losing players, but if we manage to flog him on for a decent price (God knows what that would be at this point), I'd be okay letting him walk. Agree.

Yorkie Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 He's in the tier above Cisse for me in terms of the 'who I'd like us to peddle' league. Both are unreliable and ideally we'd replace both of them, but this guy's absolutely finished. Brilliant first season and occasionally average - mostly terrible - since. It would depress me hugely if we're going into the season with him as first choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Time to move him on. Well, that time was about two and a half years ago, but whatever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Would've rather give him a fresh start under McClaren. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I don't see what's so difficult about looking where you pass the ball. If it wasn't this club, I'd say flog and replace. Sadly that's not a real option with us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Pardew's Essien project ruined the boy's life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I'm of the opinion Pardew tried to make him something he wasn't I don't believe for one second Pardew would do such a thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Oh, Pardew definitely misjudged and ultimately spoiled Tiote, like he did and almost-did with so many. But the main mistake he made with Tiote was thinking he was good enough to be one of the first names on the teamsheet. Pardew was a good manager and I wished we'd been careful what we wished for, but he got it wrong with Cheick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I'm going to keep mentioning it until it's referred to as often as Ronnie's Haidara/Liverpool 0-6 comment, but his showing in the 7-3 at Arsenal was probably the worst individual performance from any midfielder we've had since we were promoted. I was 'done' back then, and clearly so was he. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 It's all coming up Colback. That's the kicker, it's all very well getting rid of Tiote, we could do with a better player in that position, but Colback isn't it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Colback protects the defence every bit as 'well' as Tiote and actually occasionally gives you something going forward. While Tiote's in our midfield we'll always be liable to fail to control the game at home and get utterly dicked away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I used to like him. Thought for all his mistakes and flaws. He was an effective DM for us. Then, he got a big contract, Pardew wanted him to be 'our Essien' and he's been injured and shit ever since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Anyone know our record with and without him? I remember reading we have tended to do worse without him. Still, wish we had much better options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
