Leazes_End_Mag Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Sky Italia reckons Napoli have enquired about him They can do one. We need him until the Summer. And beyond. By far our most important player these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Knew it wouldn't be long if townsend was incoming. We simply can't afford to lose Moussa this window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 With the arrival of Saivet, Shelvey and it seems Townsend as well, one or two midfield players will get pushed down the pecking order, even if they don't leave. There is a decision to be made with Sissoko, because although he can open things up for us (particularly on the break), a lot of moves break down when he gets the ball. Our midfield are not fluent in possession, and although Sissoko isn't the only culprit when it comes to losing the ball, he's the chief one. It makes it difficult for players to move forward with confidence if they're worried we might lose the ball and then they'll be out of position. We're at our most dangerous on the break, but that's of limited use when we struggle to score the first goal because we can't break teams down. The balance in the midfield needs to be tipped towards a unit with more skill on the ball. I'd want to keep Sissoko because of his obvious strengths, but not necessarily as an automatic first team choice. I'd like to see how a new look midfield functions without him.

Gallowgate Toon Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 He creates things every single game, almost without fail. After Wijnaldum, he's the next name on the teamsheet. Would be mental to not play him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Being jack colback and Paul dummett means that they can't move forward with confidence. Very little to do with sissoko Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 with a more solid 2 behind him and a proper passer of the ball in the squad i'd like to think a few of his weaknesses will be mitigated somewhat and it'll give him a platform to showcase what he's good at even more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Frustrating as fuck with his loose touches and shit shooting but he is still one of out main threats, creates chances and is sometimes the only player causing the opposition problems. Got to be in the side at the moment. Let him go in the summer if he wants to go but not a chance can we sell him now. As much as I don't rate Townsend he's got the same kind of direct running ability as Sissoko so having both in the same side could cause the opposition all sorts of problems, pointless bringing in one and letting the other go.

The College Dropout Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I will never understand the keenness by some to sell our most creative player. We've signed so many attacking midfielders over the last few years. Only one as effective in attack is Wijnaldum. Look how many players we've signed and failed for the other flank.

Kanj Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Unless we're signing Ben Arfa or a top class RW, I'd never sell Moussa now, he's too essential to this team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenige Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Absolute garbage pass which led to their second. Needs to cut that out and look more assured when we're on the ball building up possession. Still, gets you out of your seat when he breaks on the counter, which is a hell of a lot more than you can say for most. Thought that was Mbemba? Was tiote I thought. Wasn't Sissoko though. Whoever it was made no effort to get back. It was Sissoko. Was a poorly drinked ball in from the right. And to be fair pretty much everyone made little to no effort to get back. Tiote and Colback painfully jogged back at a speed an OAP could outpace. Eventually watched MOTD and I was completely mistaken, was Mbemba so my rage at the TV was wrong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Honestly he's killing me, such a frustrating player, seems like he's got everything and nothing at the same time It's so mad I do love him though. If we were a proper functioning team with threats in a lot of other areas it would be more bearable. Because we rely on him to do so much it's more painful. Shelvey will be a big help.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Everyone in midfield looked more relaxed today, including Sissoko. He'll really benefit from not being the only attacking threat, now that passes can reach out other players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
