Paully Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Hatem or Demba for me. Colo for me - shame he didn’t move on two years earlier when he wanted to as people remember those years! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 As bad as we were ran, I wonder if he wishes he'd stayed here now. Could have been a legend here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Think he got out at the right time, got to play for the biggest club in France (at the moment). Although I bet he wishes he played at Arsenal with Debuchy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Next season is a decade since the 5th placed season ffs. Love that clip of him and Chiek taking the piss against Man U. Wonderfully balanced midfield duo. His last game away to West Ham was one of the best I’ve been to, beautiful FK too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely Content Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Superb player and one of my favourites to play for us. I got my first season ticket the year he signed and having heard rumblings about his influence in the extraordinary Lille season the previous year I was excited by him. Became apparent very quickly that he was going to take us to another level than the likes of Nolan and those he was replacing could have. He had near perfect technique, incredible vision and was also up for the physical battle and thrived in the challenge. Some highlights for me were his first goal in the league against Wigan, having started the season so well for us we were just waiting for him to get his first goal, think it was around 85 minutes in, 0-0, Gallowgate End, lovely clean strike from outside the box curling away from the keeper into the top left. Another was the exquisite pass to Cisse against Stoke at home the same season, I'm not sure a single other person in the whole ground could see that pass, and no other player on the field could have executed it either. Supreme. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 He was a touch of class, like. Lovely footballer. Deserved better than us. Made a mistake going to PSG but what was he going to do. Him, Ba, Cisse and HBA, man. Pardew's a cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Definitely our best midfielder of the ashley era. The midfield of Cabaye and Tiote was an unbelievable combination in hindsight, could have really been something special. Seemed to have lost something from PSG though, never looked anywhere near his best for Palace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 If we’d had Enrique 12 months later & Debuchy 12 months earlier we’d have finished 3rd in 11/12. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Just watched his goal compilation for us on Twitter. Bar a penalty, a deflection and a header right on the line. They’re basically all gorgeous finishes or top corner. WHAT. A. PLAYER. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallsendmag Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Don't think I'll ever forget that game against Reading where Pards took him off and we lost Remember it well. It was my 35th Birthday and the day before my son was born. We were winning 1-0 (Cabaye) and then Reading equalised with about 20 mins left. Pardews response was to take Cabaye off and replace him with Bigirimana. Reading went and scored again almost immediately after the substitution and we lost 2-1. Don't think I've ever been so annoyed at the match. Had a fight with the bloke in front of me cos he was defending Pardew and I ended up getting kicked out by the stewards and had my season ticket confiscated.

LFEE Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 One of the most intelligent 65min player’s to play for us. Stamina was always his weak link followed by lack of pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir_9 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 4.7m, what a steal. One of my favourite players, he was in red hot form when he left us for PSG Really should have never left, form and career went down the pan afterwards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
