In a team that attempts to play football he would be fantastic, in our team he is let down by the rest of the clowns in our team every player in front of him is thick as fuck whereas he seems to know where he needs to play next ball.

 

If we had a team with clever movement he would thrive

Our set up and tactics let him down more than his stature.

 

I don't disagree mate but for me having Tiote and him in the same midfield doesn't really work

 

I agree. As much as Anita can look okay going forward at times late in the game, it's a big ask of him to be the driving force going forward that Tiote will never be. Which makes not replacing Cabaye all the more foolish.

Exactly mate.

 

I think best case scenario for us would be a 4231 Tiote and Anita holding tiote being the ball winner and Anita distributing the ball with a new attacking midfielder who's job it is to link the play and drive forward

I don't really know why NUFC bought Anita. Anita is neat and tidy and a trier but but due to his lack of height he struggles to win physical battles against opposition players. He also wasn't cheap at €8.5 million (£6.7 million) so he didn't really fit the NUFC transfer policy, especially when he was our only purchase that transfer window.

Still think he was bought that summer in the event someone made a big bid for Cabaye.

Yep.

 

Not exactly like-for-like but he was bought with the intention of drafting him into Cabaye's place in the first XI when he inevitably moved on.
