Skeletor Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Shame Cabaye is injured because i would love to see Anita-Cabaye-Marv at some point. Makes you wonder where Tiote fits in now. He's clearly an asset against the big teams but can be a liability against the lesser teams and has a hard time controlling his temper these days.

Cajun Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Tiote is annoying me at the moment, he is obviously a fantastic player but he needs to go back to basics. Doing what he does best he is by far my first choice centre mid but he is fannying about far too much this season which is very frustrating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believing his own hype too much? Said this a few times and do feel a bit James/T27 like but I do think the players/staff/manager making him out to be footballs Chuck Norris doesn't help. When he first came here, was a relatively unknown player who was often used off the bench in Holland he was amazing and his passing accuracy was unreal. Now he has that Arsenal goal, the Norris effect etc.. he takes far too many risks, doesn't bother looking up and tries to ping it about like he is Xavi. Get him back to basics and he will start performing like the player linked with £20m moves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a limited player who is very effective when played right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Yeah that makes sense, he was doing everything right so I don't know why Pardew tried to change him. Bit like putting Krul on penalties. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Think he's going to prove to be a bargain at £5-6m or whatever he cost once he's up to speed. Looking like a Premier League player the last two games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Amazing some were slagging him. I mean a foreign player taking time to settle in a new league and country shocker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TherealnorthernTOON Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Think he should work on his core muscles, getting knocked off the ball so easy you'd think he was a kid. Why not ask him to grow about a foot while hes at it? You know you can have a strong core whilst still be small... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I know, ridiculous! I said a while ago that he'll turn it around and become one of our best players before the season ends. Better and better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Amazing some were slagging him. I mean a foreign player taking time to settle in a new league and country shocker. Aye, think we were spoiled by Tiote and then Cabaye coming in and doing well from the beginning pretty much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Starting to really find his feet in the league now. Looked much more comfortable watching him live compared to last time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Amazing some were slagging him. I mean a foreign player taking time to settle in a new league and country shocker. Got a lot of stick on another forum I use, many 'will never make it in this league'. Still has some way to go but it does surprise me that some still won't give players time to adapt given the amount of players who have shown big progress the last few seasons. He is Puff Daddy though, can't look at him without thinking it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looks a tidy little player with something special in there too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Quelle surprise, player who has always played in a 3 man midfield looking better in a 3 man midfield, probably my MOM tonight, always showing for it and making angles, makes such a difference.

joeyt Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Played well, and has improved in the last few games. Lets hope he can play just as well against Fulham with less space and against 11 men Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Geordiesned Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Amazing some were slagging him. I mean a foreign player taking time to settle in a new league and country shocker. Not really. I think most hoped he would come good but stated that he'd been very poor and hadn't shown anything (before last few games) to show he was any sort of player. The fact is he was shit when he first came into the team. As was Coloccini. As was Perch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
