Minhosa Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Swap Sissoko with Marv and have Marv as a Peter Beardsley type, who can put the ball through to Cisse and be the link man from midfield. Thats what I would do, Marv has velvet feet and can drifft past players easily with the ball, have him busrting into the box and making runs, committing defenders. I think that's a really good shout. We need a link-up man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Thought he was rubbish, assist aside. One really bad miss, and another particularly appalling decision. I'm a big fan, but this wasn't good enough. He's woefully short of service though. Our attacking game plan seems to stop when we pass the half way line. It's s**** frankly. It really wouldn't matter who we had up front if we're leaving 30 yards between them and the nearest NUFC midfielder. The service is pitiful on the whole, I agree. He still should have scored one and probably caused another today. Both times he lashed over greedily and wastefully. Fair but a contributory factor in that has to be the fact he's only actually involved in the course of the game sporadically. He gets 'snap' opportunities on occasions in games but he's not actually involved in the play. I think there's an argument to say he does well given the quality and quantity of service he gets. We play one up top and don't build our play around him at all. He's an after thought because he's outperformed imho. Why doesn't he get involved in our general play well? He doesn't hold it up very well, not the best at linking with the midfield, is not a running outlet. It's not everyone else's fault all the time. How do we build our play around him? His game is 90% goal scorer for me. Chances. But he doesn't really help the team create chances. That pass was exquisite so he has it in his locker somewhere. He saw the pass very early. For me, I'm not sure about him and Siss up top in the long-term. Neither are particularly intelligent players. They have their styles and they do it to the max. I don't think he's that type of player. He needs the attacking play to be built around him imho, including movement and team shape. He'll always score goals due to his instinct. If you put him in a Man Utd side for example, he's get 30 goals every year with RVP next to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - very much like the sound of that. Cabaye's deep seated position, often further back than Tiote, does not fit at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Thing is, with Hatem permanently knackered we don't have the personnel to isolate Cisse. Marveaux as a no.10 won't remedy that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 That certainly won't do it. We need wide players who can knock it past a man a put the odd ball in. Instead we spent £7m on a player we didn't need who'll never make it in this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be relying on the full backs to supply width tbh, they would have to supply the crosses into the box...then Marv and Cab to pull the strings.

Ronaldo Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Relying on defenders to stop a ST from getting starved of service says it all. I see where you're coming from mate but we're just missing what we need and have for a long time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know but we look lost in attack now, we still arent clear and we are wasting the talents on Cisse. I agree but without Cabaye, Debuchy, Ben Arfa its hardly surprising.... Sissoko and Gouffran were poor and Marveaux was in and out. There are lots of things to look at but we are missing huge amount of offensive ability at the moment and quite frankly we don't have the depth to cover it for the most part.
