I'd love to sign a Capoue or better DM and not have to worry about Tiote. If Anita can develop his positioning and tackling then I'm okay with that. I don't really want Tiote anywhere near our 11 if I'm honest.

 

Currently I'd honestly put Cabaye deep, Moussa as the dynamic box to box and Marv as the creator and call it from that. But I know tons on here will then go on and say Moussa is too attacking and not defensive and Cabaye can't play deeper but to me that's a midfield Dictating the game vs being reactive like our teams are far too often set up.

why not have all 3 of anita,cabaye and sissoko all defending, picking the ball up off the defence and using space to further the play and getting forward if and when they can, reading off each other when they have the chance to go and when to stay ?

 

1 attacking, 1 defensive and 1 doing a bit of both stinks of a computer game type set up.

I think that a 433 would suit us best and get all three of Tiote/cabaye/Moussa offering us a ver solid middle of the park. i would be tempted to put Mbiwa at left back (looked good and attacking) and debuchy at right back to offer the width we need going forward, add hatem and goof/marv either side of Cisse and we have a team, that if coached correctly, we can destroy teams...

As long as we stop playing Sissoko as some sort of Trequarista, he will do fine next season. I think he's one of the 2 or 3 best players at the club. First of all, he's one of the stronger and more explosive athletes in the entire sport. He actually is fairly clever and skillful with ball control especially at speed and has a good shot on him. He's not a precise passer, but he doesn't need to be, and is passing is still good enough for the Premier League. I think he plays in a midfield three ideally, but he can play in a two, or even on the wing. Just not where he was at the end of the season.

 

At every level of every sport, the main goal of your tactics has to be putting your best players in a position where they can succeed and make your other players better as a result. If Pardew can't figure it out in the first ~2 months of next season he should be and will be sacked.

 

I vote Babatunde for next Newcastle manager.

jonas

anita

cabaye

cisse

gouff

marv

Do you consider Gouffran wide as 'out of position'? Cabaye has always played CM hasn't he? What is out of position for HBA?

Sounds like he had a good match last night. Really hope he gets a run at CM over the coming games and shows Pardew he's our best option there.

 

Did he play DM? I seen a few people on twitter suggesting Anita was the getting more forward and Sissoko was holding more?

I've only seen highlights but it seems as if he was breaking forward a lot and was heavily involved in a couple of the goals. Obviously, it was only a pre-season friendly but great signs. I think his strong running will be far more effective from deeper positions and I hope it shows over the coming weeks.

i'd guess pardew knows he's best there but in lat seasons situation he was the most likely to get in behind cisse, hence pushing him further forward out of necessity.

Well, now we know where Moussa wants to play, and that's not cm, or dm, but number 10.

"For me, my position is No10," said Sissoko. "But if the manager says I must play in midfield, no problem for me."

I still think Pardew 'misused' him last season out of desperation to find someone who could win us a game.

He really isn't a number 10 (attacking midfielder maybe) nor did he play as one before coming here. You have to wonder how he got sold on that being his best position.

:lol: That'll be ol' Pardew again. The thick, ex-double glazing salesman/footballer, who also happens to be capable of mind control.
