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. 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. I do admit watching him challenge for a header makes me piss myself.

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...

Geordie Ahmed Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Getting better and better Writing him off early as some did was just idiotic He does get bundled off the ball a bit easily at times BUT he is always moving and provides an option Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

binnsy Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Starting to look like a £6m international midfielder. Very good game tonight continuing on from a good performance at Stoke. In a bit of a crisis the lad has really stepped up to the plate in the last two games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDT Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I like the way he runs. Is it that little skip he does when he first gets the ball. Its just so cute. It the upright, chest out, Michael Johnson shit he has going on that gets me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Getting better by the game. Looks like he's taken to the "quasi-attacking" role rather well. See what happens when you give players time to settle? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Superb tonight. Stepped up to the plate when he suddenly ended up as our most experienced midfielder and ran the show second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 He is going to continue to develop and be a class player for us. His pace/energy and reading of the game were top today. As soon as he continues to get acclimated to the pace of this league and gets a better understanding with our squad he'll begin to shine even more. Also will help that our team's form improves as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Amazing some were slagging him. I mean a foreign player taking time to settle in a new league and country shocker. Indeed. Especially when you consider the type of 'football' we've been playing up until the last two games........in which he's been very good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 With him playing the way he did yesterday, Cheick back to smashing people up and not fannying about with the ball and Cabaye pushing forward, we have a superb potential midfield three. Add to that a front three of Marveaux, Ba and Ben Arfa and we'll be laughing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
