Pata Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I like him a lot, but at what stage do enough people love him that he isn't underrated? I feel he's at that point now. This, Tiote is the underrated player in our midfield right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Difference between underrated/understated. His ability is definately understated generally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Keeps things ticking over and gets about a bit, key to us keeping the ball He's key to everything we do in terms of possession, like you said, keeps us ticking. Rarely misses a pass, always tries with the most simple things and does win balls in the middle even for his size he's able to get stuck in. Just absolutely love this guy.

Passing today: Tiote 86/100 Anita 50/59 Cabaye 45/55 Impressive from both. Anita did play a lot more balls forward today, looking at that Cabaye passing stat is even more impressive.

Guest Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Decent today IMO, but nothing out of the ordinary. What he gives us though is more than his individual performance. It allows us to free up Cabaye and takes some of the workload off Tiote which has obvious benefits. Always keeps things ticking over nicely, even if he doesn't stand out. And that's invaluable. Yeah, previously Cabaye needed to play a bit deeper because we didn't have anyone else who could really pick a pass in midfield, but with him there, it lets Cabaye play 20 yards or so further up the pitch and Anita is the one who can get the ball off the centre-backs and just keep the thing.

Ikon Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Think he'll be MOTM against Stoke. Will be the main man orchestrating play from deep now that Tioté isn't playing. Or Debuchy.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_Taylor Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Opposition we're a bit too physical today for him. Struggled because he's not Tiote. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Wasn't bad or anything but clearly he should have Tiote next to him, missed his presence badly in the first 40 minutes. I would drop Sissoko for the next game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Not surprising really. Midfield was very congested (as the woman behind me said about 200 times throughout the game). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Thought he and Tiote did well personally. It was the wide lads that where disappointing. Cabaye and Remy then looked isolated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Thought he and Tiote did well personally. It was the wide lads that where disappointing. Cabaye and Remy then looked isolated. first 15-20 definitely, after that gouffran did try to support remy or take that spot if remy went wide but in a very tight game getting any sort of space is precious.

madras Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 no reason at all why he was dropped, him, tiote, cabaye. remy in front of them and pick 2 from the rest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 no reason at all why he was dropped, him, tiote, cabaye. remy in front of them and pick 2 from the rest. Aye, it was ridiculous dropping him today. Him and Ben Arfa seems to have to do twice as much as anyone else to not be dropped. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 no reason at all why he was dropped, him, tiote, cabaye. remy in front of them and pick 2 from the rest. He was probably dropped to bolster our striking options with Shola Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
