Guest bimpy474 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 He wasn't great in The Championship, either. 4 goals in 40 games or so, 2 of which big deflections. Same old rubbish. Even made Perch look like a good RB. Even if he hasn't scored or created many goals he was a decent player for a couple of seasons who now is getting past it. He's not a RB so it's laughable to single that out. For the money we paid for him I fail to see how acquiring him was a mistake on a level that we analyse who recommended to sign him. I wasn't asking who recommended him for any other reason than curiosity, not to do with Jonas as such. What i was curious about was, Jonas, Bassong, Guthrie and Colo were signed before we had the Wise DOF disaster and before Graham Carr become our head scout. I was wondering who was doing the scouting then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

healthyaddiction Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Were there not rumours that Man Utd wanted Veratti, so bad news if they switch from him to Cabaye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Is the future of Cabaye intertwined with Veratti's in some sort of mystical way or something? Are they born to forever be linked in fate? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Anyone seen the latest quotes from Cabaye? The feeling in the squad is very, very positive. It’s nice to work in this atmosphere,” he said. “We just want to progress with the ball and keep more of the ball than last season. “We gave away the ball too easily sometimes. The manager wants us to take one or two touches on the ball and move after the pass. “It’s good. We’re not 100% fit, but we’re working hard.” Before we all go Surely its encouraging if one of the players are saying that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I'd love to be optimistic but a few training sessions and few pre-season games is not going to be enough to transform our style of play. As soon as the pressure is on, Pardew will retreat back into his default mode. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Passing and moving. Moving the ball quickly. So simple but it's what we need. Someone stamp that on Tiote's head, the one, two touch thing. Then pass and move on Jonas head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably still thinks that Pardew will deliver on his promise to him upon signing here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone stamp that on Tiote's head, the one, two touch thing. Then pass and move on Jonas head. As Cruyff once said "Simple football is the most beautiful. But playing simple football is the hardest thing." Which is clearly proven by Pardew's difficulties with it, i do agree mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
