Dr Colossus Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 He has a couple of outstanding attributes and has used them to good effect in the last couple of games. Good on him. Yep, he's started to keep things more simple and in turn be more direct. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 One of the few times he has looked up before trying to cross the ball, good assist and excellent finish from cisse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Seems to play better on the left Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Seems to play better on the left Shouldn't come as a surprise, played his best football for Man Utd there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Better placed on the left, been class the last two games as a sub. I'd start him at the Emirates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Maybe he's secretly left footed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I think he's one of the players in the squad (HBA, Cabaye, Cisse) that most benefits from 4-3-3. Obviously if Ba goes he needs to be replaced with a versatile attacker but I wouldn't be against seeing Obertan and Hatem either side of Papiss, especially away from home.

SiLvOR Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Still rather have Marv ahead of Obertan tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I think Marveaux's better suited to playing in midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Marveaux needs to play in a 3 man midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiLvOR Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Well I just think as a wide forward he can have more licence to roam and get forward, without having to be too defensive minded, as his work rate isn't the best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 The rest of our midfielders all graft, to be fair, so we can get away with that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiLvOR Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Yeah, which is why I'm not too sure on the idea of having Marv in the midfield, rather he be further up field Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 We need someone who can drive us forward from that area. It's not going to be Cabaye, Tiote, Jonas or Anita. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I thought he was brilliant when he came on today. Wouldn't be starting him though; impact sub is his most useful role if the last season and a half are anything to go by. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiquidAK Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 We need someone who can drive us forward from that area. It's not going to be Cabaye, Tiote, Jonas or Anita. Cabaye was doing it to an extent last season in a 4-3-3. Very forward thinking against Stoke especially IIRC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Impact sub is probably our best bet for Obertan, but the lad doesn't tire to be fair to him so he's easily capable of being as effective starting if we need him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Probably doesn't tire because he doesn't work very hard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Or he's got excellent stamina. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Another positive cameo from him. Long may his form continue I say. I'd probably still have him primarily as an impact sub mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Impact sub is his best role for us, decent cameos and odd starts in Europe will gradually give him more confidence and he will hopefully be a decent squad player at least Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shayno Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Glad to see him finally playing in his best position, it has only taken 18 months.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Good job. If he continues on this rate of improvement he may manage to be as average as Routledge was for us by the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Didn't watch the game but from MOTD he did superb for Cisse's goal got his head up and looked then picked Cisse out. Good to see him looking like he is learning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
