Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 He was great. We got relegated. His utterly shit performance against Norwich a key factor in that. Aye it was all Tiote's fault, fucking hell. Would be a good option in the championship, nobody is saying hes amazing, just a better option than Colback or Clark at DM.

Ronaldo Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Sorry, can't be arsed with you and your re-writing of history once again. We need more Dummett's. Ironic you'd bring up Dummett. He's a defender who can't play football. Tiote's a midfielder who can't play football - certainly not to any level I'd expect from a midfielder. Spot the difference. I'm not even going to comment on his ability to protect the defence. We lost by 3 goals or more so many times with him in the side even Pardew and McClaren figured out his level. Hopefully you two aren't far behind, but we all probably know better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seymour Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Just think getting him fit and having him as an option should happen, better than Colback? I'm not saying don't have Hayden and Shelvey as our first choice but whilst he's here (probably until January) the lad can surely help the tram Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leazes_End_Mag Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Anita's better, too. He's definitely not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickTop Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Tiote did not get us relegated. We looked a far better team with him in the side at the back end of last season. He's not a first XI player now we're looking to control games but he's the best option we have in CM to bring on when defending a lead. Definitely a place for him in Rafa's rotation.

Dr.Spaceman Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 All Tiote would do in this division is give away stupid free kicks leading to goals and fail to contribute to our overall play. Hayden's better, much better. Anita's better, too. There's a reason we literally can't give shit like Cheick Tiote away. We're the only side stupid enough to pay his wages. Tiote failed his medical at Galatasaray, so it's got fuck all to do with how good he is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 He's a liability and a bit of a throwback. Much prefer a player like Hayden who can actually play a bit and bring something more to the side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 The only reason Tiote isn't in the mix is because he wants to be away, nothing to do with his ability. Our best performances in the past have been when he's in the side fit and motivated, and that was certainly the case at the end of last season. In any case, he's clearly finished here now, so it's a pointless debate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea 5-1 Arsenal 7-3 Sunderland 0-3 (twice) Wigan 4-0 Liverpool 0-6 Man U 0-4 Just a selection of our worst defensive performances in recent memory.

Greg Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Tiote is the past and should never play for Newcastle United again. The sooner he is off the books the better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, unfortunately. Because he'd be much better than Colback next to Shelvey when Hayden needs a break. But he's done and a shithead, so it's rather moot I suppose.

You must have missed the 'fit and motivated' part of my quote, just like you missed that he was in the side picked by Rafa which finished last season strongly despite you writing him off three years ago. But I guess when you got called out on rewriting history it was important for you to transfer that tag to someone else asap. Rattled marra. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Not sure you can have a go at anyone about rewriting history after your Bellamy posts That was sort of like missing the wood for the trees though. Bellamy was decent with both feet, and he relied on a sweet strike rather than guile so my point was never about not which foot he preferred unless you want to be pedantic.

joeyt Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 So why mention his left foot? When he was clearly right footed But it looks like he can finish when he gets the chance though, Bellamy relied more on the sheer power from his left foot.

Because it was a long time ago and I thought he hit a few with his left foot. I'll check google and youtube more extensively in the future if it's going to be an issue.

Guest Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Was that the one from Elliott's chip into the box falling over his shoulder? Ranks alongside Cordone's cross for Goma v Boro as one of my favourite assists. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andymc1 Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I was being a corporate arsehole at the match last night and Tiote came into our room. When Justin Lockwood asked him "When do you think you'll be back on the pitch?" he replied "I don't know, you best ask the manager". Lockwood then said "What? So you're actually fit and just left out again tonight?" and Tiote replied "Yes, I want to be playing football but you have to ask the manager why I'm not". Thought it was vaguely interesting as Tiote changed from smiling and answering questions to looking a bit gutted in my opinion. Seemed to me as if him and Rafa don't get along.

Newcastle Fan Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Rafa made it clear that only those who want to be a part of the team will be in his plans and Tiote was seeking a move out, i like Cheik but its obvious why he's not involved.
