madras Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Marveaux's never a box-to-box type in a million years. We do need one, badly. no reason it shouldn't be cabaye and anita. no chance cabaye. why, he did it from the right of a 3 at lille. not like nolan but then he didn't have the tactic of feeding off carroll.

Not athletic enough, imo. Someone like Yaya Toure is the ideal box-to-box player, imo. Not Cabaye. (Bigi would more suited for that role.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 George Caulkin @CaulkinTheTimes Couple of details in that analysis piece - agents have become involved in Loic Remy deal trying to get more €€ for Marseille so that's not necessarily straightforward.

TRon Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Marveaux's never a box-to-box type in a million years. We do need one, badly. no reason it shouldn't be cabaye and anita. Cabaye and Anita are too naturally static and diminutive for the role. Both are diminutive, but neither are static in any way, shape or form. I don't know which games you are watching.

Cabaye and Anita are too naturally static and diminutive for the role. Both are diminutive, but neither are static in any way, shape or form. I don't know which games you are watching. They may cover a lot of ground going backwards or sideways but they don't make the penetrating runs when we got the ball that you want from a box-to-box player. Square pegs in round holes. I'd much rather just play a genuine player for that role alongside Cabaye and Anita/Marveaux. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Anita and Marveaux and both good positive midfielders, and so is Cabaye when fit. Even Obertan is looking better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least not yet. anita hasn't in his past, i just think he has it in him even if he seems to be blowing at times. i'd bet we'll see a different player next season as he comes to terms with the fitness required. he has the mindset and the talent.

Chase Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 So, which one of you guys are responsible for updating his Wikipedia page? It appears he joined us on the 1st for €10m + Marveaux in a swap deal along with Sissokho and Debuchy joining on the 1st Loïc Rémy (born 2 January 1987) is a French international footballer who plays for English club Newcastle in the Barclays Premier League.Rémy joined Newcastle from Marseille on January 1st 2013 for a fee of £10,000,000 in a swap deal with current NUFC player Marveaux. He has joined former team mate Haten Ben Arfa and also International team mate Yohan Cabaye. The "French Revolution" at Newcastle; (other players such as Sissoko and Debuchy signing in the january transfer window) is seen as a main reason for his arrival Rémy primarily plays in the lead striker role, but also operates on the wings and as a second striker. Rémy is described by his new manager Alan as "a young international who is fast and powerful with huge potential" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loic_Remy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
