Dr Venkman Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 So, do we actually know that he's refused to play? At any point? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Away Toon Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 If I was Anita and got dropped for Cabaye against Fulham on Saturday I would put in a transfer request and tell my agent to get me out of there before the window closes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Anita and Sissoko definitely shouldn't be dropped. I think Marveaux will drop out with a reshuffle in midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Anita and Sissoko definitely shouldn't be dropped. I think Marveaux will drop out with a reshuffle in midfield. Yep, especially since Marv has played a lot of football (for him) in a short time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0cafella Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Cabaye should be on the bench at best imo. He can't just waltz back into the team especially with Anita impressing against WH Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Anita wont be benched, Just can't see this (and im not exactly Pardews biggest fan either) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 if cabaye's available there's no doubt in my mind pardew will start him and bench Anita. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Phil K Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 So, do we actually know that he's refused to play? At any point? How CAN we know that ? Did he play ? No. Was he injured ? No. Did it come after Arsenal's bid ? Yes. Was it Ashley ? Make your own mind up on that, personally I doubt it I'd say YES it was Cabaye who refused - after all, if Pardew was lying, Cabaye and/or his agent could kick up a stink. They haven't Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leazes1986 Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 If Anita was going to be dropped I don't think he would have sat out of the game yesterday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hakka Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 He might expect him too play, doesn't mean if he does he isn't going to be poncing about the midfield doing utmost to stay clear of injury. Hardly shown himself to be the professional sort thus far. Im more worried he tries to get himself sent off. He's that petulant I wouldn't put it past him. Eh? Maybe I'm missing something, but how would that help him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do get those points, but surely they are mooted for his reasons for playing? He didn't want to play because he wants to move. Nobody puts in a reasonable bid. Dropped by France so wants to play again. If he's banned for 3 games that will put off a buyer a tiny bit as he will have to miss games where he goes, but more so he can't catch the eye of the French National coach, which is the reason for playing? Not that this really matters I suppose. I just hope he stays and plays well for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
