Noticed that he drifts infield quite a bit these days.

 

Why is that?

 

He's always done that.

 

He hasn't.

 

He does use to cut in, in the last third of the pitch if he gets that far, but nowadays he's cutting in to the position of the defensive midfielder slot.

Perfectly fine as cover for central midfield, but that should be the full extent his role. The "runner" in a 4-3-3. I appreciated his defensive work, some creative passes/touches, and high level of exertion, but his pace is entirely gone. He's no longer an explosive athlete and struggles to go past players.

Disgraceful that he started today. Yes imo!

 

We've got nobody else really. Cabaye certainly didn't look fit enough to have started.

 

Would have started Bigi and moved some players around.

Thought today was one of his better game this season tbh :lol:

I agree, made us more solid in the middle of the park, tracked back and offered cover and protection to the defence.

 

Was understandable he'd fade in the 2nd half after being out injured though.

A couple of his passes from the left into Cisse during the 2nd half were embarrassing. I'm not sure our manager tells our player to keep possession.
