Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Set pieces in general were much improved; most probably because Barton was nowhere near them! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 yep, Barton's just gonna have to take this one on the chin imo. it seemed like they were sharing them against arsenal but cabaye looks the man for the job Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Thought his corners were superb on saturday. Probably been posted somewhere Cabaye’s looping corners had an 80% success rate of finding a teammate, http://www.leazesterrace.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Cabaye-corners.jpg http://www.leazesterrace.com/sunderland-0-vs-1-newcastle-in-5-key-points/ Good article imo.

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Was usually directed to Williamson to head across the box. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I thought Joey took one or two, almost certain he took a decent free kick in the first half. Cabaye was on corners, anything in shooting range Raylor and long free kicks seemed to be taken predominantly by Raylor as well. I did notice Joey seemed to take up the Nolan position from corners and set pieces, in and around the goalkeeper making a nuisance of himself, should have been rewarded with a goal as well, but for Larsson's great save.

aussiemag Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Noticed Steven Taylor taking up Nolans roll of miming the goalkeeper directly infron of him, whilst we have a free kick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought the same. Don't know if that's where he should be during corners, though. Probably would be better for him to wait outside of the box to take a shot.

Cabaye took all of them except when he was off at the end, Cheik took it and kept it in the corner with Jonas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Quality player, can see him and Tiote forming one of the best, if not the best CM partnerships in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Cabaye has been taken aback by the passion of United fans since his arrival and after witnessing more of the same at the Stadium of Light he told the Chronicle: “Since I have been here, this is just normal behaviour – they’re simply fantastic. “Now the fans can carry this result at Sunderland through the season. “They can fly the flag in the region because they are as you say top dogs. “It is our title until the next game we play against them in March next year.” Gwan.

Beren Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I pick up a distinct Thierry Henry-advert-sounding accent he has from reading that. They are, as you say, top dogs? Can't wait for his first goal. Next game please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Hard not to get excited about him. He's got all the makings of a club captain too. It was the bit about him going with his wife to see the region, after he made the move, that stole my heart. Anyone who has a desire to settle in Northumberland/Tyneside has my backing.
