Guest DebuchyAndTheBeast Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 He's not deadly in the 6 yard box though, he's deadly with the ball at his feet pretty much anywhere within 30 yards of goal. He's far from being just a poacher, although recently that's where his goals are coming from. He's also very capable of linking up with the other forwards which usually gets ignored due to his his sometimes erratic touches. Remind me how many assists he has this season? He may be a very good finisher but his link up play makes Sissoko look like Iniesta. More Premier League assists than current our set piece taker for the record. who???

Cisse has more PL assists in his career than Colback. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 As if assists are relevant anyway when you put the ball in the back of the net every 75 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_NUFC Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Lovely guy to boot. As long as we keep getting balls into the box (and by that I mean Janmaat keeps putting balls into the box), he will continue to score. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as we keep getting balls into the box (and by that I mean Janmaat keeps putting balls into the box), he will continue to score. He's just a natural goal scorer if you can get some decent service. No one else attacks the penalty area like he does for us. So fuck if he doesn't do enough outside the box. I've always thought that part of his game has been criticised too much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always thought that part of his game has been criticised too much. It used to get criticized when Pardew had us lumping long balls at him from the defence. Now that we have Janmaat marauding down the flank and crossing in like a proper fullback, Cisse can just prowl the penalty box as is his strength.

Riviere is the opposite of Cisse. I really like some of the work he does outside the box, but he doesn't look like he's got the appetite for goals.

Mole_Toonfan Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 When you consider how little there is around him, how it seems like he's a lot less mobile than when he joined his goal return is pretty insane. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riviere is the opposite of Cisse. I really like some of the work he does outside the box, but he doesn't look like he's got the appetite for goals. Rivière's always been a 1 in 4 or 5 player. I still think there's something there and we disposed of him too quickly, and he is only 24. Today I would have probably swapped Cisse for Perez and left him on.

Ronaldo Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 what the feck happened the last 2 seasons, completely got his mojo back He failed to deliver when marginalised by the mercenaries Remy and Ba. Other than that he's generally always scored goals. He got us 5th in 2012, kept us in the PL in 2013 and has basically repeated that in 2015. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

U2 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Have to remember that Riviere was playing as the support striker today. And he did a decent job of it. More than happy for him to put a shift in like that in order to open the game up for other players every week without him setting the scoreboards alight. I reckon Cisse, Riviere and Ayoze on the pitch at the same time is our best bet for the rest of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
