sbnufc Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Rumours or not, I'd be very surprised if he goes to Palace. His agent's doing a shite job if he can't do better than that for him. right before the euros (on home soil no less) its almost the ideal move, play every week in a high profile league and working with someone who he worked well with before. Throw in London factor and he'll get a nicely sized wage packet and what has he to complain about? No champions league But then the same could be said about Sissoko and I assume he's nailed on to be going to the Euro's at this point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's staggering. Whenever anyone pulls him up on his writing ability/lack of knowledge/incoherent sentence structures he just replies 'I've been doing this for 20 years' as if that's some sort of burn I'm not a Geordie or from the NE but I hate the way this guy is the main representative for sports journalism up there. It's an insult to the region. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an insult to the region. Yep. I've heard him on Talksport before. They were pretty much openly ridiculing him and he came across like such a mong. Which is quite an achievement on that station. Seeing as about 80% of their presenters are complete buffoons. He is one of the reasons why the 'Geordie Nation' shite gets repeated and why a lot of fans of other clubs think we're unrealistic and have high expectations, expect success etc. I'm sure he's been on SSN as well and he was just as bad. How did he get that job, I wonder? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 He completely understand what's going on with this club and what Ashley is doing. Is that a surprise that he choose Palace over us? He's not choosing Palace over us, we aren't interested. Neither are any other more glamorous clubs by the looks of it if he's going to end up at Palace.

TRon Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Personally I think his international career is going to fade as well. We had him when his reputation was at it's peak, since he went to PSG he hasn't been able to hold down a spot, hence he is now desperately looking to play for any English club who will have him. I think his problem is,despite having good ability, he doesn't really fit the description of defensive or attacking midfielder. He's like the more gifted version of Colback.

Guest Roger Kint Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Also France have the likes of Pogba, Matuidi, Sissoko, Kondogbia, Gonalons, Schneiderlin all in similar poistions which doesnt help him either, plenty of youth and movement there over him unless he can have a great season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time he was on Talksport he had obviously been drinking as it was late in the evening and he was unbelievably antagonistic towards the presenters who were asking reasonable questions. I can't remember the details but just that he was so unnecessarily rude and I have never heard him on the radio since. Always wondered why he was never been on BBC Newcastle's Total Sport - every other local journalist has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghandis Flip-Flop Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I don't think Schneiderlin would be the success he has been in the Southampton team if he couldn't pass a ball, and yeah Pogba couldn't trap a bag of cement which is why nearly every major European team is trying to currently court him. I read some rubbish on these pages but that ranks right up there with the worst of them i'm afraid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read some rubbish on these pages but that ranks right up there with the worst of them i'm afraid. I knew someone would completely let the point go over their heads..... Pogba isn't wanted by every major european team because of his passing ability, it's because of athleticism and ability to start a counter attack by himself as well his shooting ability.... his passing actually isn't that outstanding but that doesn't matter because he has other things he excels at. He is at his best when he's running at back 4s or just using his physicality in the final third. Schneiderlin has been a success due to his energy and just in general defensive ability, he can pass but nowhere near to Cabaye's level. The others are your prototype box to box midfielders, who do most things to a decent level and have superb abilities to drive the football and excellent energy. Cabaye is the best passer in that group by a distance, which is my point Pogba and who ever else they decide to play will need someone alongside them who can dictate the pace of the game and can create from deep with passing because none of those players can do that. Not to say that Cabaye is a nailed on starter but they'll need someone who can do the things i mentioned because none of them listed can. Gonalons is probably the best passer of that group including Cabaye but he doesn't have Cabaye's vision or range. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghandis Flip-Flop Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Cabaye's form at PSG has mainly seen him spray 5 yard passes straight to the opposition, so the argument might have had some validity once, however the last 18 months; which is a long time in football somewhat renders it moot.

Mole_Toonfan Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 That's fair enough, but general point wasn't really about Cabaye so much that it was that France need a playmaker and none of those players are except for Gonalons who is somewhat limited in his passing range. Cabaye has shown the ability to be that player whether he still has is up for debate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 He's a midfielder with ability, therefore he is closer to Cabaye than he is to any of our sludge Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
