Anderson Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Chronicle reckon he could be off if the right offer comes in. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/cheick-tiote-could-quit-newcastle-7596511?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 He's incredibly limited and unreliable. The part of me that wants him to stay is the part which doesn't want Colback to become first choice in the centre of the park. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 His value's only going one way from here on in, he's not getting another contract so he'll be moved on I'd imagine. There's no stink without shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 The ship for Tiote to move to a top club sailed when teams had more of a chance to see him play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 We've actually dipped slightly into the red on transfer dealings, another sale was always going to be just round the corner... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ads Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Not such a bad thing if Anita and Sissoko start centre mid, with Colback and Abeid as back up. As much as a liability as he is useful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest axel Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 If we get £10m+ from some russian oligarch club we should sell immediately imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I thought last season was one of his better seasons here tbh. Aye, don't think we could afford to lose him without a replacement, especially with Sissoko seemingly set to be left aimlessly wandering down the right.

Ronaldo Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Give me a break, man. A good manager would see him replaced in a second. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pata Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Selling our best CM one week before the season starts for a few million would be absolutely brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Selling our best CMone week before the season starts for a few million would be absolutely brilliant. Debatable, anyway rather I'd rather see Anita and Sissoko start. There is no way he should be sold especially at this time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 We need a player similar to Tiote in midfield, imo, and he would be missed if he left. Of course, this guy is not really the one I want given his propensities to make reckless tackles, lose the ball in dangerous areas, make overly ambitious passes, and be pulled out of defensive shape, but he is still a vital part of the team regardless. Obviously, we are not part of it, but he seems an important part of the dressing room as well. One of the longer serving players, an emotional disposition, and someone many of the new imports can look up to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the longer serving players, an emotional disposition, and someone many of the new imports can look up to. He's not perfect but his presence and energy would be sorely missed. Also I don't think he does so many reckless tackles nor overly ambitious passes anymore. Losing the ball is the biggest problem, he's just over confident in the position he plays. We just simply look a worse team when he isn't playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 All fine and all but as usual for this club - if a player has an influence they have to be on the pitch 24x7 in Pardew's world and they can't be rotated or used in certain situations. But with Pardew, its all or nothing. And when its nothing, the player is treated like dog shit and essentially kicked out the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the longer serving players, an emotional disposition, and someone many of the new imports can look up to. I am going to agree. It would be nice to have a more accomplished version of Tiote but he's the only player of his type we've got. Colback and Anita are better on the ball, but they lack physical presence and athleticism which he brings to the team. It's quite telling to me that his better games have been against the top sides where he can compete because of those qualities, I'm not sure the other two can live at that level.

Dave Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Wait, what? We might sell Tiote? Well I for one always hated the sellout prick. What a money-grabbing arsehole. Overrated anyway. Hope he crashes his car etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think he'll be difficult to replace. Anita doesn't look strong enough to me, and I'm not sure Colback is best used sitting in front of the back four. But he's not very secure in possession and his passing is poor. He often slows the momentum of an attack down by not releasing the ball early enough or positively enough. If we're going to really improve, we need someone better in there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're going to really improve, we need someone better in there. That's a bit like saying we could do with an quality dominating CB as an upgrade on Taylor/Williamson or a proven striker. It would be nice to have all of them but they cost money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
