Papiss Cissé


Recommended Posts

Only watched a poor quality replay of the goal on YT but his first touch to flick it between the two defenders looked sublime!

 

IM not sure if he meant that first touch.

He does seem to turn and run as soon as it flicks up. Could be wrong though, it is a pretty poor video.

 

Looking forward to watching it later, regardless. :)

 

He still reacts quickly to it but im not sure if he meant.  I need to see it again tbh.

 

No doubt he meant it. The movement is proactive not reactive.

I went to that museum was very disappointed for all the production value, never taught me anything or had any sense of capturing 'football', just felt a collection of stuff

 

I've been meaning to go since it opened but I just can't be arsed :laugh:

Reached a strange landmark today, 13 goals which is the same amount he got for us last year.

 

This time it's taken him 40 games rather than 14, however it's not a bad return all things considered.  Can see him ending up with 16 or 17 plus.

It's 12 for us this season I think. Agree with the rest, though.

 

Fair enough, Wikipedia is probably wrong as a few other sources do seem to say 12 like.

 

Edit: Aye, some dafty's added it up wrong on Wiki.

The cliché about him not hitting the heights of last season are starting to piss me off. Yeah he's not scoring every single game any more, big fucking wow. :lol:

 

He's currently got 5 in 8, and 8 in 18 which should really be 9 in 18 considering the Metalist officiating howler. He should probably have more, but 1 in 2 isn't exactly shite is it?

Growing up i was always told 1 in 2 is a great return for any striker, then that wanker Messi came along :lol:

TBF, if this is him out of form, then I'm delighted. He has his faults, but every player does. He's still fucking class, especially considering how much he was dicked around when Ba was here and the lack of playing to his strengths a lot of the time.

Today was a prime example of us not playing to his strengths and painted a clear picture of why his form has suffered at times this season, everything put forward were long balls and Cisse just isn't that kind of striker, if you get him the ball to his feet with a few decent deliveries he will put it away more often than not.

 

Whether it be Pardew or whether it be a new manager I just hope we can play to his strengths and I really think we would see him flourish once again.

It's that dinked, looped, cross field ball in his direction that is a waste of time. Not necessarily 'long' as such, but completely the wrong ball for him. He needs it to run onto, through balls into space, he's not going to control a looped pass and lay it off as that's not what he's good at.

I was watching his runs carefully yesterday to see if some of the moans about him being offside more often than not, the reality is that he makes some exceptional runs and he sees the person receive the ball but more times than not they don't release early enough, cabaye did it a couple of times.

He is red hot at the moment, just lady luck is at that time of the month I would say... Benfica, you will suffer !3!!

Is this Giggs? Apprently Pardew was furious with Papiss after he didnt pass that ball to Marveaux, showed him the clip of it in the rooms at halftime, to tell Papiss it wasnt good enough and he needs to be more aware. Then supposedly Papiss cracked the major shits at Pardew. Pardew later saying he regretted showing it to him at half time.
