So where would the signing of Cabaye leave Nolan?

Bench.

 

That would be a big call considering his status at the club and season just gone.

They didn't hesitate on doing it to JB. Wouldn't surprise me if Nolan's next.

the advanced mc iin a 4-3-3... could work

 

Ben Arfa would probably have that one covered. Nolan was often too easy to pick up and man-mark this season when put in a more forward minded position, he has to come from deep down and ghost into his positions.

 

          Tioté - Cabaye

Ben Arfa  Nolan    (Gervinho)

              (Gameiro)

 

Think I'd rather have Jonas on the wing and HBA in the middle though.

I don't know what sort of contract was put in front of Nolan but he hasn't exactly rushed to sign it. If Cabaye is going to sign it means that we aren't going to give him an improved offer, assuming the initial offer is still on the table. Nolan will have to make a decision whether he is happy to be a squad player or would prefer to leave.

Huge, huge difference between Barton and Nolan though, in virtually every aspect.

Pardew has said he sees Ben Arfa as a #10 just behind the striker though.

 

I think it'll be the 4-3-3 formation Pardew's planning us for though. Gervinho definitely fits that.

But I imagine it would be Ben Arfa in the centre ahead of Tiote and Cabaye with Gervinho and Jonas (or N'Zogbia) on the wings.

Probably not, probably going to be a la Chelsea 4-3-3. Tiote behind Cabaye/Barton and Nolan/Emana ;) and then Ben Arfa and the other winger behind the striker.

True that, Barton is not a bad footballer. Seriously though if we can put out a team where Nolan is on the bench (something he said himself he accepts will happen) then surely we're fielding a better team.

Nolan has two years remaining on his current deal and was open to extending it by a further two years.

 

But the club has shelved plans to discuss his contract until the end of next season ­leaving Nolan in complete limbo.

I thought so too, he has 2 years left on his contract so don't know what the problem is.

 

As Fenham said, a load of crap.

How can it be considered a "contract snub" when he's still got two years left to run on his current deal? To my mind the decision to leave talks of a new contract until next season is perfectly reasonable.
