Guest firetotheworks Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Im so pleased that Ive come on here and everyone's praising him. I had a horrible feeling that there'd be people blaming him for their second. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Was it really nearly a year ago we bought this guy and everyone was wondering if he was good or not? The kind of midfielder we were desperately short of last season, extraordinary vision and passing. Next season I hope to see him clocking up a better goal tally.

Guest Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Thought he played really well today. Put himself about and got stuck in to a few challenges. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebellious Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Ran the match for 70minutes. Got tired, anyone with stats on how much he ran? Mustve reached 13km or so. On the stream I was watching I think he ran 5km by half time, ran the most out of all the players both teams by half time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OoOGazOoO Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 He has played so well in the last month or two, has really done well going forward and defending! Another excellent signing by the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 He could hardly walk at the end never mind run he was knackered. he played well today mind, but then again i thoguht all of our played well and we were deserved at least a point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveMc Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Love him I really do. He's balls out 100% effort every game and has a touch of quality too. If we kep the core of this team and add 2 or 3 similar players we'll go from strength to strength. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke - Son of God Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Immense again today. He had that little dip in form around Feb-March but he has been a fucking machine since then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
henke Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 He's the heartbeat of our team. People think he occasionally has a bad game, he doesn't he still works harder than any other midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Restricted in the 4-4-2. As is Ben Arfa and practically all our attacking players bar Ba, which is why i find it baffling why theres any reason why we use it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 To think some ppl on here wanted Guthrie ahead of him is mental. They know who they are and they know what do with themselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roy the Irish Magpie Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 work horse but i though his passing was poor today tbh but still another great shift he gave. Did you see some of his passing in the first half? Sublime. The flick that nearly put Demba through was ridiculous. But there was a good few incidents I can remember where he did give the ball away, clearly others don't, not that it matters too much anyway because he still had a good game.

Yorkie Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Hope he spends the summer practising corners. Exceptional footballer. Known since Villa (a) that we've had an absolute gem on our hands here; i think he's going to be even better next year. Can't wait to see him, and the other attackers, blossom ahead of an upgraded defense next season. I still don't think we're anything close to top gear from an attacking perspective, when you consider how young the squad is (in terms of matches played).

Elliottman Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Lost Toure for the first goal, if he had of kept with him it would have made it a lot tougher for him. But, he's generally been excellent all season. I really think he'll kick on next year too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was trying to push forward and make our attack tick more .. we lsot possesion .. hed ran his arse off for 65 minutes and was knackered.. really think we should have played with a midfield 3 ... with ferguson left wing and gutierrez defensive mid....

Guest BooBoo Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I thought him and a number of others just looked a bit leggy in the second half. Please can we have a new left side corner taker? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, knackered or not, he didnt follow Toures run. I'm not having a pop, just saying it would have been a lot tougher for Toure if Cabs had of followed him.

Guest firetotheworks Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I don't think its a fault of Cabaye's any more than Kompany's performance was a fault of Cisse and Ba. Toure and Kompany were the best I've seen against us this season. They were exceptional throughout. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Restricted in the 4-4-2. As is Ben Arfa and practically all our attacking players bar Ba, which is why i find it baffling why theres any reason why we use it. Hopefully we'll only see it on the odd occasion next season, tbf it worked against Chelsea and I can see why he did it today. With better fullbacks the 4-3-3 is going to offer even more next season.

Can understand why he did it when you look at the power of their midfield. Wish we'd switched to it in the second half early on though, might have swung the game if it worked.

Mick Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Cabaye has had a fantastic first season here and I'm sure his second will be even better. He's been a massive upgrade on the bloke he's replaced and I think that's all we can ask of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yh i agree on the odd occasion it can work against certain teams like Chelsea but more often than not i think 4-3-3 should be used and i would hope it will. Btw i agree on the corners part, they are f*ckin awful None the less, he's such a great player and truly an amazing bargain for 4.5m ffs and has showed this season what a complete midfielder he is..... he can press, tackle, intercept,pass, score goals..... and top it all off he's a sexy bastard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
