Lush Vlad Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 In the system they play yes. I think he's underrated TBH. Because he looks and sounds like a clogger. Not saying he's a natural finisher like Cisse mind. Cisse up top as a target man for Stoke? Aye, that would work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Think he'd be starting for Southampton as well tbh. Pelle has scored two goals less than Papiss despite playing pretty much every game this season. I know Pelle does more than score goals, but Cissé would still be an upgrade on him IMO.

Lush Vlad Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I honestly just cannot get over how bad he is all round, for someone that has been in pro football this long. That said, his goals per minutes ratio is pretty amazing this year. Strange after two years of nothing he starts banging them in. But he has been around 1 in 2 elsewhere before his move here. Urgh. I don't know what to think anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 His overall game isn't brilliant, so you just compensate with the tactics, get him on the end of moves, not involved deep Simples! No one was moaning about his build up play when he first joined that's for sure. The more disgusting our team, and our football has become, th emore his overall game has deteriorated. All started with shunting him out on the right. Imagine playing someone with his skill set or lack thereof on the right man. Pardew is vile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 No way would he play ahead of Pelle. Pelle without scoring gave us the run around. They just lumper it up to him and held us off to get attacks started. He only technically got 1 assist but he was vital in ther fist goal. Giroud and even Welbeck are excellent all round players and they are big reasons why their side can create. They don't just wait for the ball they contribute to their attacking style. Cisse doesn't contribute. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 'Compensate with tactics' LOL. Simples. 'Tactics' to make attacking without the use of a striker until the box - easy as pie. In wonder why Arsene or Jose don't go in for him. Just compensate for his lack of ability with tactics.

Hanshithispantz Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 His one touch link up play is actually really good when it's not really really shit. He's capable of the ridiculous but sometimes does something daft like kick a simple 5 yard ball out of play, or sky an open goal over the bar. I love him.

The College Dropout Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Nobodys disputing he's a top finisher when he's in the groove. But he contributes to our poor attack. Teams with fluid attacks tend to have strikers who help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Cisse's all round game doesn't need to be good, he's a finisher and to be honest when he's on form he's a pretty fucking decent finisher as well. He's not the type of forward you get who is going to hold up play for there to join or to play others in, he's the type who you get the ball to and he does that last bit of sticking it in the net.

Agree, apart from he is crap when he gets no service which was the majority of time during his first full season to the present. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I think he'll be gone come the summer but we'll probably replace him with a Riviere type player and be absolutely fucked next season. His all round game is absolutely shocking though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Think he'd struggle at Arsenal, you have to have more about you to play for the top clubs unless you're utterly ridiculous at that limited role like van Nistelrooy was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Resorting to last minute loan attempts that have virtually no chance of coming off instead of identifying suitable targets early in the window and spending some of their vast financial resources on them. The bloke's draining the life out of AFC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bloke's draining the life out of AFC. I disagree although the state of those other targets are quite horrendous like. I think given the net spend and Arsenal having absolutely no ambitions on winning the actual league is the more pertinent point. They net less than Liverpool Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugoinufc Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 a fit cisse in an attacking team with 2 good wingers a good partner upfront to draw attention will easily score 15+ a season.
