High Five o Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 What a player. Strong technical, and very good vision and passing. Anita Cabaye Sissoko Marv and HBA Tiote back in top form Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TherealnorthernTOON Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Far more attacking that expected, almost a forward at times. We've played like that most times when we've gone 4-2-3-1 with the middle one pushing high upfield. Seen Cabaye do it aswell as Marveaux and Anita.

toontownman Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Feel bad for vurnon. Lads not getting near the team when Tiotes is back! Marveaux either by the looks of gouffran. Tiote Sissoko Cabaye Ben Arfa Gouffran Cisse Tasty - desperately need another striker to bring off the bench though. Saylor, haidara, Anita, obertan, marveaux, bigi and Jonas are good options from the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Shame cos Anita is of more use to the team than Tiote is if his form continues Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BONTEMPI Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Can play down the right anarl Everyone fit Krul Debuchy Mbwia Colo Santon Cabaye Tiote Ben Arfa Sissoko Gouffran Cisse Could always swap Arfa and him to mix it up Then realises Pardew is still manager.

Tachikoma Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Feel bad for vurnon. Lads not getting near the team when Tiotes is back! Marveaux either by the looks of gouffran. Nah, Marveaux is still comfortably a better player than Gouffran, in midfield at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Stupid commentator thought he was a holding mid. He kept saying he is playing more upfield than I expected. Idiot bunch need to do their homework. He was playing further forward than his normal role apparently. http://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Diaporama/Les-bleus-reveillent-newcastle/1424 "Moussa Sissoko was played in...the number 10 position by Alan Pardew!" So doesn't seem like it's exactly a role he's played much given how surprised they were. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 He was far too high up the field in the second half imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 For a big intimidating presence on the field, he sure was weak in the air? Didn´t manage to time his leaps at all. Once he gets used to the pace he´ll be one of our top top performers though. Was well impressed by what I saw. Keep in mind, Ben Arfa, Cabaye & Marveaux all said it took them some time to adjust to the pace of this league, so I can see why he was knackered and had to be subbed.

Tiresias Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I wonder if the thought was he may struggle for the pace of the league first few games or whatever so ease him in from the front backwards? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 He was far too high up the field in the second half imo. Yep, one of the main reasons we were so under the cosh, we needed him to fill in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Need to look at 4-3-1-2 imo Cabaye Anita Sissoko Marv Cisse Gouffran with Sissoko and Marv interchanging (swap in Ben Arfa for Marv when he's back) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

relámpago blanco Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 He's got a touch of sheer class this lad. Fuck knows why pardew took him off when he'd been outstanding, maybe they need to chill out on medicals do they make them run the great north run twice or some shit.
