aussiemag Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Newcastle midfielder Yohan Cabaye has told Lille's Belgian forward Eden Hazard, 21, to choose Arsenal over Tottenham. Full story: Daily Mirror http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/transfer-news/Eden-Hazard-told-to-join-Spurs-then-told-to-join-Arsenal-article891825.html Read this earlier .. obviously quotes taken from some sort of interview in France. You would have to say that maybe Cabayes head would be turned if Arsenal were to make an offer for him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nordstrom Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Newcastle midfielder Yohan Cabaye has told Lille's Belgian forward Eden Hazard, 21, to choose Arsenal over Tottenham.

You would have to say that maybe Cabayes head would be turned if Arsenal were to make an offer for him? In almost all cases, a player's head would be turned if Arsenal were in for them. I don't think a recommendation from Cabaye indicates much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 You can't base Yohan's own ambitions on stuff like that. We've had signings in the past say in interviews that an international team-mate recommended Newcastle, haven't we? Doesn't mean they'd be ready to join us if given the cahnce. Obviously if we had ambitions and a chance of getting Hazard ourselves I'd be fucking pissed at quotes like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 'THIS is where the two sides are very different. In Cheik Tiote and Yohan Cabaye, we have midfielders who are essentially holding players, two of the Premier League’s best in my opinion.' - From a John Carver interview this morning. Very interesting comment, don't think he's a holding player myself but shows what they think of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very interesting comment, don't think he's a holding player myself but shows what they think of him. As I read the first sentence I automatically said to myself 'Cabaye isn't a holding midfield player', then was rather shocked to discover it was a Carver quote.

Tiresias Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 He plays there for France and has before, he can clearly play as a deeper midfielder in a 4-2-3-1, but tackling etc isn't the best side of his game, and he could be scoring more goals with a freer role. That said think he does a very good engine room role even when he's not playing high up the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 He has the full knowledge to play that position so he's not wrong. He's done it for most of the season too. Automatically knows when to stand off, when to press and is very disciplined. He's obviously played that role before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belfast Mags Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Was surprised to see him described as a holding midfield myself, have never viewed him like that. That said, you can't really describe him as an attacking midfielder either as he seem to play quite deep a lot of the time. I think Saylor said (in a Sky Sports interview) that he played almost like an American football style quarterback, which is actually a pretty good analogy when I think about it.
