Sylvain Marveaux - arrested


Recommended Posts

Love it when folk try to attach daft labels to players not worthy of them in a month of Sundays. 2 years back Jonas was getting recommended for that role.

 

Never saw anyone say that tbh.

No problem at all with Marveaux. Wouldn't be in my first XI but he's the sort of player we need. No problem with him starting if needed and handy to have on the bench.

Marv proves the haters wrong again. He certainly aint a winger but he has a brilliant eye for a pass.

I still don't get why he was dropped in the first place. Our best player over the Christmas period and frequently looks a very neat playmaker through the middle.

 

Cos we brought in Sissokho who has been playing in Marv's best position. And we all know how he started here.

 

In the middle he' so much better. He just looks happier and more comfortable. "Get me the ball, i'll keep it." If the right pass isn't on he'll slow it down and play it simple. Today, Siss looks to only have 1 gear and it's GO GO GO! Always looking for the killer ball when sometimes his great runs would be better if he passed it simple.

Because Guitierrez works harder defensively and that's Pardew's main concern.

May be wrong, but I'm under the impression that he was dropped before Sissoko arrived. IIRC he picked up an injury after the Christmas period when he was by far our best player, then when he returned he was played on the left wing where he did even less than Guti. After that he hasn't had a look in until the 10 minute cameo against Chelsea and the odd substitute appearance/Europa game since.

In some games i'd start him ahead of Tiote and drop Sissoko back a bit, there is absolutely no reason for Tiote to start in games like this.

 

I would do it for most games, especially at home. Quality player, worthy of a starting place.

Sissoko would be an ideal holding mf who can burst forward in the space left by teams defending deep.

Still don't think he has the work-rate to play on the wing and I don't think we are good enough to leave a full back exposed against two players, especially with both full backs being attack minded.

 

Like the idea of him as an impact sub though or as a bad up to Sissoko.
