r0cafella Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 That fat f*** lowes spouting there's nothing we could have done about it Cabaye was on a relative pittance too according to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I'd be far more angry if Ben Arfa was sold Me too. Probably because he really is a player who comes along once in a generation and we've been largely denied the pleasure of watching him thus far.

SiLvOR Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I don't have any bad feelings towards him, though I don't have much love for him either. Not sure why, maybe because he hasn't always played to his potential. And partly the Arsenal thing. I want to feel like this but i still love him Like a girlfriend you picked up who wasn't all that great looking at the start, but then developed into an absolute beauty. She then realises she can now do better and cheats on you but you take them back because they are gorgeous, everything seems fine again yet out the blue they do the dirty on you again! When she finally decides to break it off for good, you can’t help but still want them back even though they've hurt you so much but you know they'll never come back...f*** i'm broken :'( Fucking hell. You can still love him as he's not playing for Man United. Brett mate. Loved it. Also when Hatem goes yes it will be worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 The most worrying thing about the sale imo, is not necessarily the loss of the player or the message it sends out of us being a small thinking club. It's the obvious impact it will have on how well we play. He was a real key to how Pardew set us up to play, clearly Pardew is not a man with a plan B, because without Cabs in the team, the team more often than not struggled. Pardew now has to think of a way to permanently play without him, not sure he has that ability to change unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deckard 13 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 The more I think about this, the less it makes sense. Cabs left the best team in France for a new start in a bigger league. He leaves us going back to the best team in France, albeit a stronger version of it. Other than the finances of the deal, the only other thing he can possibly hope to win that he has no experience of winning is the CL. I just keep thinking we had to wait 8 or 9 years to really see a quality centre midfield after Rob Lee left. I hope we don't have to go through a similar period of time to see Cabaye replaced. I'm not sure I can handle more years of the Parkers, Butts and Emres of this world. That's what hurts the most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Mark Douglas @MsiDouglas 37s Understand Cabaye fee is slightly more than £19m reported elsewhere. Just over £20m I'm now hearing. Kinnear in Ncle today. Expand Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we sold Cabaye and then for example straight away went and got Cabella/Grenier and another player in, I think people would accept it. Players move on for better clubs/bigger money, and clubs accept big offers all the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurs managed to turn the negative of Bale going into a positive of loads of exciting players arriving initially, although it remains to be seen whether it was effective. Certainly wasn't in the early stages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 We still have to remember that Cabaye was perfectly entitled to buy out his contract in the summer for a quarter of the price if he wanted to go to PSG, so it is a good time to sell unfortunately.

Utter tosh ,we could have said to PSG "here you can have him at the end of the season on a pre contract agreement but he stays with us till then" .Yes he can buy himself out at the end of the season but that will put an end to that ,whilw we are on if Mata is worth 39 million i think we have sold him on the cheap in todays over inflated market .

Kimbo Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I always felt there was as much chance of me waking up and deciding to cut a ball off as there was of Cabaye deciding to buyout his contract. It was a stupid story. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
