DJ_NUFC Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 People are now saying Cabaye has done more for Newcastle than Kieron fucking Dyer I love how both through the transient nature of memory and the retardation of the medium that is the Internet forums history is rewritten. Regardless of what you think of Dyer, and most of what you said is true, he did about 5000x more than Cabaye ever did for this club. Just on performances, assists and goals alone, not even including the fact that he didn't go on strike because he was denied a move that was promised to him, and didn't look for an out at the first opportunity. I love Cabaye, but people need to stop this revisionist bullshit. It's taking on the Confederate South proportions where they claim to have won the war. Edit: Have people forgotten the FULL season when we finished 16th and Cabaye did fuck all? He was invisible most of that fucking season bar a few goals and assists.

Tsunami Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Dyer had his limitations but as a midfield player being able to break from deep and run beyond a defence he was the best we've had. Some of his off the ball runs were fantastic. Put him in with Cabaye and they'd cause all kinds of problems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can easily be in the same team and cause havoc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_NUFC Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I remember it all very well. And the distaste with which he treated the captain's armband. As soon as Bobby was sacked he was the first one to say he was shattered and was completely remorseful, in public, about his behaviour. Either way, the point still stands, simply by sticking around at the club a lot longer, he did more than Cabs. I wish we'd had Cabs for longer, but he was always in his own version of 'I'm a celebrity, gemme outta here..." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Last statement especially. I think its a shame that Sir Bobby was getting on with age whilst Dyer, Jenas and Viana were here. The 3 of them had everything in their skill set to take us forward too, f***ing shame that. Didn't help that Dyer had no respect for Sir Bobby at all. Alongside Bramble and Bellamy. While I'm sure they'll remember the good times mostly, Dyer, Jenas and Bramble will regret how their role in Bobby leaving has adversely hurted their careers. Does Jenas even have a club?

Ronaldo Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 As good as he is, he isn't a top tier or second tier midfielder. He's a very good player half of the time, but no more than that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're talking France, Sagna and Debuchy have been preferred to him for quite some time too, no? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Apart from Chelsea, Cabaye is good enough for every other team in the league. City and United could do with Cabaye and hes much better than Joe Allen and Mathieu Flamini. Yes, I would have Cabaye back but it wont happen, not unless its a temporary loan. He will end up at Liverpool or Arsenal IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
