SMTW Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Some tidy involvement tonight. Needs pace in and around him though. He always seems to be an option (came short to feet at every throw) but at the same time isn't the most mobile in terms of covering vast areas of the pitch.

Ikon Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 The only time Cabaye will win a ball or two in the air is when Debuchy's sitting on his face. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine Cabaye when he's 33ish.....pace going a bit, can't get around the pitch as well as he currently does but hasn't lost any of his ability or vision - that's De Jong now.

So by the time De Jong is 33 he has to be pushed around the pitch in a wheel chair? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 What a gorgeous little header last night. Should start whenever fit. Too classy a footballer not to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I'm surprised he didn't paralyze himself trying to do something like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 What a gorgeous little header last night. Should start whenever fit. Too classy a footballer not to. I think Sissoko has to go to get SDJ in to the match-day starting 11, unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickthemagpie Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 The only time Cabaye will win a ball or two in the air is when Debuchy's sitting on his face.

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Think he's going to be vital in home games where we need to break opposition down. You'd like to think his movement, along with Wijnaldum's and Perez's, will create massive problems for teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnonel Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 We just have too many pretty good/exciting attacking options to be starting the alien Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Can't see why Sissoko can't take Colback's place deeper so De Jong can play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Recoba Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I liked De Jong's performance last night but I am concerned about his athleticism. I know it is not the be all end all, but he is the slowest attacking midfielder we have had since Kevin Nolan. He really cannot get around the pitch.

Ikon Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I think/can see De Jong playing most games where we probably are likely to have more possession, meanwhile away against the better teams he's may not be the perfect option for us. At least not until we are competing better possession wise in our away games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Sissoko is positionally suspect defensively at CM. Has to play in a midfield 3. Can only play them both in a midfield 3 diamond. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I actually think De Jong looked much more mobile last night but I guess after virtually a year out, it will take time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 What a gorgeous little header last night. Should start whenever fit. Too classy a footballer not to. Agree completely. Think he has been written off by too many because of his injuries. Very classy player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
