Flip Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 tiote > masch though. Not really tbh. Masch might be a disgusting cunt but he is a very good player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Mascherano pisses me off. Was cringeworthy watching the difference in him alongside Lucas compared to when he was alongside Alonso. Better as a CB imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Mascherano pisses me off. Was cringeworthy watching the difference in him alongside Lucas compared to when he was alongside Alonso. Better as a CB imo. There's no way he's better as a CB, doesn't win enough headers and his positioning isn't that great. Perfect player to play if you want someone to just sit infront of your CBs and win the ball and play it to whoever. Defensively he's great in that area as he can win tackles and cover a lot of ground without having to really mark a specific player or so. And anyone next to Lucas will look shit except when he has his 1 in 50 good game. Masch with Alonso was a perfect match in a way as Masch won the ball and Alonso distributed it. A bit like Tiote and Cabaye, except Tiote looking to get forward a bit more than Masch has ever done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I mean in Barca's team. He looks like a fish out of water in their midfield, but looks perfect as a CB. (alongside one of Puyol/Pique I mean, the Masch/Busquets CB partnership is fucking chronic) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Has he really looked good as a CB there? Wasn't convinced the few times I've seen him there, but haven't seen enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Thought Cheik was pretty awful yesterday - bar the last 15 or so. Seemed to give the ball away a fair few times and was caught in possesion a lot too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Didn't do too well yesterday, but neither did Cab as it was two against three for a long time. After today's debacle, a big bid from ManUre in January suddenly looks a bit more likely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Technically limited? Go on then, tell me what you mean by that? Personally, for his role I think he's very a technical player. His first touch is often that of 2 touches for a lot of players in that he takes the ball under control and moves in to space with it in. He's also one of few players that can make space for himself without actually touching the ball and just changing his body position, which is a technique in itself. Also, for the most part his passing range is very short (but accurate), but whenever I've seen him try long passes I've seen more than enough to suggest he's got them in him. I think you could argue that he's clumsy in challenges and a bit rash, as well as not offering a lot going forward, but technically limited is one of the last things I would say about him.

Flip Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 My only problem with this fucking beast is that he sometimes does that dribble in the middle of the park many times a game and does get caught in possession once or twice. Otherwise I think he has improved from last season, he might not be as visible since Cabaye helps with a lot of the work he had to do by himself last season with fatNolan. Loving the fact that he does look more of a threat going forward, with already two assists from good crosses and couple of shots which have been close to goals. Love this beast, also he doesn't need to take as many unnecessary yellow cards with Cabaye there tracking back. And he must also feel more secure with our defenders playing well to let them escape sometimes leaving the responsibility to defenders instead of breaking up plays.

Nice try. For all his many strong points he's a technically limited player. Ferguson has never bought such a player, and it's unlikely he'll change that stance after 20 years of success.
