Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 The only redeeming feature he consistently displays is not hiding. Anita & Colback is a stalemate of hide & seek. His problem comes when he's with other CM's that like to hide (Anita & Colback) The forum lost credibility with those awards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

morpeth mag Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Happy to sell, other teams are just targeting him as he hangs onto the ball too long and has a first touch that can go further than his shots. No wonder Pardew didn't like it when we had the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Busted flush. Very much on the slide as far as performances and contribution are concerned and I'd move him on for as much as someone is daft enough to cough up for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Him passing it backwards and sideways isn't pointless, far from it in fact. It pulls the opposition around and opens up space for others. Sadly we don't have the players who are intelligent to take advantage of what he's doing. It's not a video game where the game goes backwards and forwards like a yo yo, you create chances by being patient and open up initial space through players like him. This is such a great point, and it absolutely infuriates me. The number of times he has played it to Willo, in a position where he has space to then take the ball forward a bit and pull the opposition out of place, so he can then play the ball (on the ground!) back to Anita or another of the midfielders so they can turn and be in a position to open up the pitch man! Instead Willo looks at the ball in terror and just hoofs it ... he's an embarrassment. Anita plays the way he does in anticipation of others continuing to shift the ball quickly over short spaces as they then look to move into better positions. Everyone has to have at least a similar mentality or it just doesn't work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 If Tiote plays the ball to Mike Williamson in anticipation that something intelligent is coming back, he's a bigger fucking idiot than I thought. Shithouse midfielder. Thankfully we've got much better than him now and a real manager will ship him back to a Mickey Mouse league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 His backwards passes are infuriating though, b/c many times he does have time to turn into space or play it sooner. He somehow thinks going back to the CBs or Krul is the best and safest option when someone like Anita will turn it up field and play it forward with pace and intelligence.
