Yohan Cabaye (now sporting coordinator at Paris Saint-Germain)


Recommended Posts

Honestly we should play it short and restart play every time, there's probably more chance of making chances that way.

 

Long boot back to Cabaye on the centre spot then a lovely little through ball to catch them out as they're pushing out.

Did we ever find out what our "perfect corner" we had worked out over the summer was? People keep mentioning Hatem against Spurs but I was away for that and never seen it if someone wants to describe it.

Corner was played short, catching Spurs off guard. HBA jinked his way past 2 spuds before being brought down by Lennon to win a penalty.

Somewhat ironic that since the "perfect corner" toss was mentioned, our corners have become beyond awful.

 

They've been awful since we got promoted tbf.

 

Plumbed new depths this year, at least 30% hit the first man.

I keep scoring from corners swept into the near post (Colo mainly) on FIFA, and I keep thinking why on earth can't we have a man on the near post for flick ons? IMO Williamson should be there for every corner. You watch our players during corners, and they're ALL faffing about dead center in the penalty area, with hardly any movement. Ridiculous.

Been saying the same thing, if we keep hitting first man then we surely should have someone playing near post to at least contend too!

 

I've posted this same thing too, think in willo thread

Surely it was meant to be that hugging thing that Ba, Cisse and Taylor tried against Spurs? Did it once. :lol:

 

Can't remember who exactly, but one of them was in fucking acres of space for that, just Cabaye's cross was fucking shite.

Hmm Barton and Guthrie's were often decent. We scored from a fair few corners/set pieces as well.

We just haven't got a good enough target to aim for anymore with Carroll gone and Nolan's presence on the goalkeeper gone.

It'd help if the corners were decent though as this season quite a few have been awful by him.

He could learn a lot from Gerrard on Sunday about how to control and dictate a game, something he has rarely done for us.

 

Not saying he's faultless or anything this season but it's gotta be hard for him to dictate games where he's either watching balls float over his head all game or out numbered in the middle.

It depresses me watching him pick up the ball from the defense. It's like hiring an artist to emulsion your walls.

The corner set-piece against the mackems caught them right off-guard tbf, where we crossed it low into Colo. Nearly scored!

The Cabaye/Tiote partnership is far better than we give it credit for. Even when it's 3 against 2 in midfield they put up a decent fight. Tiote allows Cabaye to play that little bit further up and Cabaye allows Tiote to play a more simplistic game.

 

Without Tiote, Cabaye plays ridiculously deep.

 

Since AC/Nolan/Barton left everything about our set-pieces have been terrible. Cabaye shouldn't be taking them, he's shit at indirect freekicks. It's pathetic the way it's actually a good idea to bring on Raylor because he can put in a good set-piece. Only for Willo to waste it. Nobody goes to the front post. Shit all over.

Definitely this, I thought 'great, Krul is playing it out of defe..... fuckkkk is Cabaye doing there!!!'

 

Isn't this what Cabaye himself said he wants? He's not going to get 100 touches in a game full stop but it's dropping deeper where he'll get the ball more often (in theory).

Yeah shame you can only do it once a game if that
