:fwap:

 

Isn't Henry like 6ft 2", terrible aerial stats as well as his shit tackling, the man really is a footballing mule.  Cabaye is a dwarf in comparison, he's barely 5ft 8" and hardly has a big frame, yet wins every other header he goes for and can make a tackle without nearly killing someone.

 

Kelvin Henry  :best:

Cabaye is 5'9

Fair do's, looks bloody tiny at the match.  As they say though, not the size of the dog in the fight and all that, he doesn't shy away from the rough stuff.

 

Oh yeah, I agree.  I just wanted to show off my stalkerish traits.  Could list off the hights of many of Europe's top players :/

Another '3' from this one.

 

Cabaye - (3) : A disastrous match! We rarely witness that. He displayed an incredible waste of possession, giving the ball away to the opposition too often. He tried to press forward, but in the end, ended up in no-man's land due to the technical quality of the Bosnian midfield.

 

Oh well. :lol:

I do hope Shola Ameobi moves to the French (lower) leagues one day. They'd surely be into negative numbers.

 

:lol:

 

Hope he was just relaxing before the big game on Sunday. Him and Tiote are going to have to be at their best against Modric and Parker.

Cabaye did scoop a gorgeous 25 yard lofted ball right over the Bosnian defence to Remy, setting up a good goalscoring opportunity, only to be given offside incorrectly.  He was never a 3.  Maybe a 5 or so.  Ratings from 1-10 are so arbitrary.  I'd say he was at least a 273 out of 520.
