Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Obertan was poor but is quite quickly becoming a scapegoat for fans which is a tad annoying absolutely, disgusting the way he was jeered off Wrong as it was I don't think Pardew has helped by adding to the fans frustration with him by selecting him week after week when he doesn't contribute much at all. He has contributed, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Tiote and Cabaye worse than Obertan? Come on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Tiote 5, what the fuck! He had a smashing game today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolution Number 9 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 At least give Cabaye some credit for the goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Tiote and Cabaye worse than Obertan? Come on. I thought both were awful and detailed why. Obertan was more of a mixed bag, some decent things with some erratic stuff but I don't think he was as bad as people make out, in fact some of his link up and cross field play was really good.

Ashley17 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Aye but...Obertan created nothing. At least Cabaye scored Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Tiote 5, what the f***! He had a smashing game today. no he didn't. got caught on the ball more than ever (it's now becoming a bit of a problem, i could see other teams targetting it) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Tiote 5, what the fuck! He had a smashing game today. He was fucking awful man! Kept getting caught on the ball and giving away possession as he was holding on to it too long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Literally can't think of one thing Obertan did right, other than tracking back on the odd occasion. Would like to see his statistics; barely found a Newcastle shirt throughout the entire ninety minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdckelly Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 on Obertan I only had radio commentary so maybe it looked different if people watched it but it did sound like he got into some good positions but at times the support didn't get into the box quick enough to give him an option Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I thought Tiote was okay but dilly-dallied on numerous occasions which led to him surrendering possession cheaply. Not his best game but he was particularly dominant in the last fifteen minutes; was absolutely crucial in us closing the game out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Tiote played pretty well I thought. He never shines in games like that, though. Never. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 on Obertan I only had radio commentary so maybe it looked different if people watched it but it did sound like he got into some good positions but at times the support didn't get into the box quick enough to give him an option can only think of one time when he put a ball into the box and nobody had reacted to his run, the other players probably thought he'd just stop anyway and not bother making the run. I would say that Obertan was our weakest player today and we lost a lot of possession because of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I thought Tiote held on to the ball too long today. Although I attribute that to the lack of movement in front of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Ba was the worst player I thought, done nothing of note in the first half and was shocked he was left on and Best taken off, then when he did get a chance with the header he wasted it by putting it straight at the keeper.

Interpolic Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I do think Cabaye's done his invisible man impression quite a few times this year mind, delectable as he is let's hope that's more a case of him getting used to the league than an indication of the type of player that he is.

Mick Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 agreed but tbf, seems more a poor game than him being s***, like some are trying to make out. Obertan was part of the reason that it was a poor game and I think that was highlighted once Marveaux came on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I attribute that to the lack of movement in front of him. i knopw what you're getting at but too often today he was simply muscled off the ball, yes lack of movement meant he had to hold on to it more than he wanted but a good few times he had opportunities to lay it safe and tried to hold it and lost it instead. also several 60-40's in his favour which he lost. maybe over critical as i'm not used to seeing him lose out so much.

The service to the forwards wasn't good enough today but I think Ba is more likely to get a goal and wasn't on a yellow card. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest H09 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Thought it was a real shame today that some of the crowd went back to the days of getting on the players backs, sometimes for practically f*** all. Feel really sorry for Obertan, wonder what the poor lad is thinking, must have been a right punch in the nads when all them arsewipes sarcastically cheered him off. Some people are so out of touch with reality, i'm sure a lot of them are the same clowns that contributed to Bobbys sacking and then a few years later sing his name and pretend they never wanted him gone.
