Looked very accomplished last night when he came on, made some insicive passes, shielded the ball well, and played some excellent passes into space to get the team moving, which neither Tiote or Cabaye really managed. Was the pick of our midfield.

Good to hear.

I really like Vurn, hope he's going to be trusted to play. If Tiote keeps f***ing up as much as he has been, it's surely only a matter of time before he has to be dropped.

 

Vurn, Siss and Cab in a three would be an ideal midfield unit, physicality, technically good, and 2 of them can release the ball quickly. I think Cabaye and Sissoko would benefit hugely from his intelligence.

We all thought that last season and Anita just sat on the bench game after game, and when Tiote was injured or suspended, Pardew played Perch. It's baffling, i really hope you're right.

He had a patchy season last year when he did play but he still looked head and shoulders above Tiote.

 

He was the only player who looked any cop around that disastrous Nov-mid Jan run and he was dropped for his troubles.

Yep, I know it was only against a 10 man Wigan side but we played some good football during that 3-0 win with Anita, Bigi and Marveaux in midfield. Then we made sure all 3 were out of the side ASAP.

I really hope we get at least a chance to see this. Not sure TBH.

I wonder why Pardew is so reluctant to try the things that seem so obvious. It can't be that it hasn't crossed his mind.

I think Vurnon needs to be replaced by a proper defensive midfielder for most games tbh. Someone in the Song mould.

 

I do like him as a player but that midfield will get bullied quite badly.

 

With someone the size of Sissoko we really shouldn't be concerned about being bullied.

I really wish Anita would start but we all know deep down that he isn't going to. Same with Bigi, we would all hope he would get his fair share of game time but unless injuries strike we are rarely going to see him. Which is a shame on both accounts.

I feel we can all see what we want to happen, it's 4-3-3, with some passers (Anita and Marveaux/Remy/New boys) replacing Cloggers (Tiote and Gutierrez).

 

Whether that will happen for any extended period of time is another matter. An injury to Tiote may force Pardews hand?

I never saw him in France but he's looked about as far removed from a defensive player as you can get so far for us.

It certainly may and he has no Perch to use instead.

He's just scared tbh. Cabaye and Tiote worked when we finished 5th.

 

If it aint broke don't fix it, if it breaks just leave it and hope it doesn't get worse - Alan Pardew

That's never a real quote is it  :facepalm:
