Mole_Toonfan Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 The ball would be flying over Dembele's head like everyone else so his driving runs from midfield would not have much effect if we are honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiLvOR Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Dembele reminds me more of Ben Arfa than Cabaye if we're doing comparisons. Anyway I hope Yo can impose himself a lot more in the coming games, needs to really get a grip on the game so we can try and keep the ball for longer than 1 minute.

Funnily enough Jonas is the most similar comparison - both attacking players who struggled with end product and have reshaped their games dropping back into midfield giving their side a bit of energy. Except Dembele retained his ability to glide past players in the blink of an eye whilst Jonas has lost his. Sure I read somewhere he completed more dribbles than anyone in the premiership last season. Was up there at least. Would be a pretty spectacular upgrade on Jonas, mind.

Disco Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Mark Douglas @MsiDouglas Strong hints that #nufc will field a strong XI. AP: 'No offer from Spurs for Cabaye,' - who he has hailed as one of the best in Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Wonder if they made a bid to the club or just sounded out his agent? Find it hard to believe the clubs PR machine wouldn't have been all over rejecting a bid. Spurs got a way better player in Dembele anyway IMO Really? Not sure if people have realised but Disco has a bit of a campaign going where he is putting down all of our players apart from Danny Simpson.

durhamunigeordie Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Aaron Hughes has played about 220 PL games since we let him go for £1 million. I know it's oft said, but that is still for me one of the worst decisions Sir Bob made. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Think it was more due to Shepherd than Souness regarding the sale of Hughes as he bragged about the great piece of business to get rid of Hughes for £1m, and replace him with free agent Craig Moore.
