Lotus Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Unfortunately we live in a world where having long black hair and running around a lot makes you undroppable. It's true that Jonas doesn't add much to our flow or buildup play. He does make a significant defensive contribution though. I would think we should play the Tiote-Anita Cabaye trio in games where we want to boss possession and then play Jonas against the bigger clubs. See. This is what´s wrong here. Everyone is happy if a player is running around and then hoof it long and hard. How can anyone be happy with that? I think we just have to be honest about the fact that when we come up against the big clubs like the Manchesters, Chelsea and Arsenal we don't have a squad that can outplay them. Or West Brom.

themanupstairs Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Starting the game at RB helped him when he moved into midfield imo. Had he started in the middle, he might have got overwhelmed those first 10-15 minutes when they had a real go at us. The fact that he "warmed up" for the game playing fullback then switching to midfield - rather than coming on as a sub as well - allowed him to keep his composure for the rest of it.

Hanshithispantz Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I dunno like, regardless of your position I think being being consistently raped by some 17 year old bairn could have had a negative impact on his confidence if he was mentally weak.

AlanSkÃrare Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Still think we'll see him, Tioté and Cabaye gel into a midfield three sooner rather than later. It has massive potential. He is still getting to grips with things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TherealnorthernTOON Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 think he really balanced the midfield well yesterday. Was allways there to hassle and break up counters. Covering for both fullbacks when they ventured forward. Was also composed when on the ball and seldom gave it away. I really think he was integral for our good spell of passing and movement.

ujpest doza Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I thought he was excellent today once he was in midfield, complete opposite from other games!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodneyCisse Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 He was involved in the build up to Cabayes goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
morpeth mag Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Did what he was bought to do - breaking up their play with his reading of the game and improving our passing and all retention. Probably helped as LFC pay a Dutch type of possession game (badly). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Thought he looked more settled yesterday best he has played in CM since we signed him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Thought he looked more settled yesterday best he has played in CM since we signed him. Aye, looks a lot more settled in that defensive role where he can sit deep and keep it simple, feeling a lot better about him as cover for Tiote after that performance.

TherealnorthernTOON Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Think Tiote really is hampering his settlement. Tiote is used to that 4-4-2 formation where he really is the active midfield defender, covers alot of ground imposing himself. He just might run too much for Anita to be secure about his positioning at times. If we play with a 3 man midfield, it would open so many options for us, but the three in the middle have alot of learning to do in that department to get the best out of eachother.
