Mole_Toonfan Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Don't forget Obertan. Typical Pardew that, always treats players like an old rag when better players come in. Still remember what he said about Williamson and Simpson in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Flash Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Really not sure what he said wrong there [/Pardew sympathiser] The fact that he's still talking about it (at great length) is bad management. All that stuff completely left my mind for the last week and now I'm back to thinking Cabaye is a tosser. "We've discussed the issue and it's sorted...*coy smile*" is how Hughton would have dealt with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Flash Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 You're right, the lad is yet to start a game this season but typical Pardew just rips him apart What good is it carrying all this on though? They can think whatever they want privately but reminding us about what happened on the eve of a game is very counter productive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I apologise, there is no way a journalist could have brought up the fact Cabaye may be starting his first game since he had his head turned. Pesky Pardew is pesky. Fuck me, I hate the negative cunt, I have had many fantasies about coming into billions of pounds, buying Newcastle and sitting down with him giving him the ultimatum of not being such a weak/pathetic wanker or losing his job but the lengths people will go and the obvious things they will ignore just makes it all meaningless Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Pretty weird concept isn't it? The swarms of premier league managers, wandering the streets hoping a journalist is near by to note down his wild ramblings. Seems far more likely than said manager being asked questions the day before a game, that would be literally mental. Mental! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Not sure if I've missed some sort of newspaper nonsense over the summer, but has Cabaye actually ever said he wanted to leave / not play? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 You don't see the benefit of wanting to brush an embarrassing incident under the carpet for the benefit of the player we still own and will be playing? He must have talked for 5 minutes going off those quotes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Hughton was the absolute master of not saying anything in interviews. I never paid the slightest bit of attention to quotes from him cos I knew he wouldn't say anything. Loved it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 No one was prepared to bid more than £10m for him, and France had decent results without him in the side. I imagine Cabaye's had a bit of a reality check about how highly he's really rated and will be pretty desperate to put in some eye catching performances if only to cement his place in the France line up for the WC. Pardew didn't need to say anything really, when the window was open it's not as if Cabaye took a blind bit of notice when he was pushing for a move.

Optimistic Nut Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 "Decent results". They drew with Georgia and had to come back from behind twice in Belarus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 :lol: Seriously though, I might have missed something, but did Cabaye definitely "not want to play". I have a feeling it was more the club wanting to shift him on for a big sum... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 How was he today? I would say decent is a fair description. Played well enough, didn't do anything spectacular but wasn't invisible. Had a shot he probably should have put across the box but tbh most players would have done the same in his position and he wasn't far off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
healthyaddiction Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Played as an attacking mid with Anita and Sissoko behind him. He was general average. Didn't do anything of note except a shot near the end of the first half that might have been better to try and play across the goal. Didn't give the ball away or put in any stupid challenges though. I can't remember him creating anything though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 He's good at what he does but I've never had him as a wow player. He is clearly very talented but don't understand the hype tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
