Skirge Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Hope Cabaye doesn't get slagged too much when he leaves for a club with ambition I think that will depend on how it happens, you know MA won't budge on price and we rate Yo very highly. If it gets messy and Cabaye sulks or trues to force a move when the buying club won't pay what we want it could all get a bit nasty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Hope Cabaye doesn't get slagged too much when he leaves for a club with ambition I wouldn't do it (slag him off), three seasons without the CL is a lot for someone who's played in it regularly. If we can get a fair price for him next summer then we can look to replace with a player that has the same mindset he had when he arrived. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is the best case scenario personally, given he has no ties to the club I can't expect loyalty. 3 years of service and a healthy profit is the best we can hope for.

Guest firetotheworks Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 If people are going to boo Milner, who worked his arse off, was fucked about by Shepherd, and then sold against his and Keegan's will for a tidy profit, then they're obviously going to boo Cabaye. People boo by default now. It's pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Regularly' is a bit too far for someone who played in the CL for only his first 2 seasons at Lille tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not many players who have played CL will give it up for good to stay at a club which has no intention of playing in it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Tbf in his first season he was still in with a shout going into the last game, last season got to a European Quarter Final and is in a team currently a couple of points off 2nd place.

thenige Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Desperate for this kid to stay at least until the end of the season. Anything after that is a bonus. Contract or not, that's just modern football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Depends how he goes out tbh, wasn't impressed with his "head not right" attitude in the summer but if he continues as he is now and a bigger club comes in for him then you can't really begrudge him the move. Suppose its how the individual looks at it, Nolan dropped down a division for more money but is lauded, Ba didn't let the speculation affect his game, scored in his last game before moving to a more ambitious club but is deemed a greedy bastard.

I think the case of Ba is more to do with the fact he moved to a more ambitious club to sit on the bench most of the time which annoys most people and by the end everyone was sick of a year of speculation probably fueled by his "entourage" feeding the links to other clubs to the press Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

merlin Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 If Cabaye leaving meant Anita would become a crucial player next season i'm all for it. It would be a shame to lose Cabaye but I think Anita's more than good enough to take his place. Anita is a neat and tidy player but he is no replacement for Cabaye - he doesn't have Cabaye's tackling ability, range of passes or, crucially, power of shot. You are dreaming if you think Anita is a replacement for Cabaye - we will be lucky to find a player as good for twice the fee Ashley will be prepared to spend..... While I agree with the rest of your post, I would say Anita is a far better tackler than Cabaye, as he should be, being a defensive player. Cabaye's qualities are going forward, his tackling is usually pretty bad IMO. Watch how many times Anita pulls out of 50/50 tackles...Cabaye never does although he sometimes goes over the top. Other sides KNOW Cabaye is going to go in hard, but Anita rarely does but his timing is better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliottman Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Blanc looking for a CM..Just saying.. Amazing article from Ryder Fresh reports from France today claimed Yohan Cabaye could be the subject of interest from Paris St-Germain. Laurent Blanc has told the press in Paris he wants a midfielder in the new year. It is understood Cabaye is set to stay on Tyneside until at least the end of the season. When asked over the weekend on Football Focus if Newcastle could play in the Champions League, Cabaye answered: “Why not?” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 anita only "pulls out" of tackles in the narrow blood and thunder english sense; he's usually trying to stay on his feet, nick the ball and thus be able to do something with it instead of flying in hell for leather and seeing what happens...he's flown in too when it's required i see what Tron is saying on the tackling front, i agree Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Aye, amazing comment that from Tron really.. Anita a far better tackler, being a more defensive player.. What I said was that Anita should be a better tackler as he's meant to be a defensive midfielder. He might not go in as spectacularly but he steals the ball very well.

Skirge Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I think Anita tends to go to ground a lot less so fans tend not to notice his tackles as much, thing I like most is how he doesn't dwell on the ball and is always looking for the forward pass.
