I don't :lol:

 

Must be some sort of Britishism

 

"Pull off" ?  :laugh2:

I'm sure where Pierre is concerned it depends on whose doing it !  :mike:

£25m is a class fee for someone who hasn’t consistently played well. Not that I’m blaming him, it’s obviously Pardew and his tactics.

 

No, it's just far easier and more optimistic to blame tactics.

 

Nah. It's just more correct, really.

 

Like it's Pardew's fault his corners are dreadful and he won't make the runs required to support the attack?

 

Yeah?

If he went to Man Utd/City he'd be brilliant. Fact is the players around him aren't good enough.

 

Hate hearing these crap excuses, it has nothing to do with the players around him. He would stand out a whole lot more if that was the case, instead of blending in and not standing out ahead of anyone else.

He's quality, but he had a poor season. Part of that is down to him, part is down to manager/coaches and part is just the general disfunction of the team.

 

Exactly right, just an easy excuse to go blame everyone else for his failings last season. He was just as shite as the rest of them. Maybe that's why Tiote was so shit last season too.

I think it's a fact, but mainly in the sense that it's a lot easier to play well when surrounded with better players, and in a team that is usually dominating games - put Cabaye in Man Utd's midfield with all the movement around him and time to pick his passes and of course he would look better.

Reefa thats a very immature post. Of course players look worse in poor teams and with poor managers.

 

However Cabaye is massively overrated IMO.

 

I wasn't trying to come across immature, but we can't blame all of Cabaye's failings on everything and anything exept himself.  I agree that he is massively overrated and I just don't get how him playing poorly is someone else's fault.

A manager misusing him and getting the team to play in a fashion that doesn't suit Cabaye or most of the team tbh, doesn't help like. Cabaye isn't blameless that's for sure.

"All of his failings"?

 

He had a fairly sub-standard season like (and was injured for a lot of it) but he wasn't as shit as people want to make it seem. And all of the evidence points to the underlining reason for this being poor management, considering it was the same for practically every player on our books.

 

The "player is to blame" just seems like the typical N-O craic of trying to restore some kind of balance.
