Hanshithispantz Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Different player obviously like but in terms of quality retrospective to his position he's streets ahead of Cabaye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Think people have forgot how often Cabaye when missing for us. It wasn't all like it was in his last 4 months Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I'm sure he was called crap few months back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Cabaye's a really solid midfielder with a good passing range and cracking strike on him, think him going missing was more down to the way we played, I don't think he put in many bad performances. Wijnaldum's on another level though when in this mood, he's absolutely devastating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Cabaye used to get moody and petulant like his bum chum Debuchy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Amazed at how good he has been. Just goes to show you can't really predict how well a player will adjust to new surroundings, as I would have said based on their Eredivisie record/reputation/performances there wasn't much between De Jong and him. Pace, power and athleticism make such a big difference in this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 The Eredivisie is mental like, you either get a world beater or a total carthorse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pace, power and athleticism make such a big difference in this league. Some people just have an extra level and raise to it or beat it, Gini clearly is a world class player in the making. Honestly love the player to bits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddy Chibas Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 A poll needs to be inserted into this thread, concerning the transfer fee received in the Summer. Shaddapayaface. You forgot to include the '#' Ian. World class No.10's are tough to unearth, so I'll vote for the option which covers £36m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 He was too much of a passenger in earlier games, suppose it could be adjustment to pace of the games here. He is much more active now and doesn't have so many of those dissapering acts, he seems to be involved a lot more both defensively and obviously offensively. I think Ayoze is doing well out on the wing, he covers a hell of a lot of ground but seems to fade badly in second half (nearly always...) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Ayoze is doing well out on the wing, he covers a hell of a lot of ground but seems to fade badly in second half (nearly always...) Spot on. If you compare him in yesterdays game to the last time we played West Ham he is totally different. He's way more involved, he is sharper and confident and I think he's got a lot more to show yet to come. Wonderful talent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortoon Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Been MOTM for the last 3 games. Took us half a season to get him into a proper system where he plays his favorite position. Getting used to the league was important but I think that's the main he's not going missing now, he's not a winger in a million years. Clever positioning and team-play is his game, not running up and down on the wing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 He's clearly a nightmare for defenders to pick up playing where he is now in the middle. He's got bags of pace, great movement and is a qualify finisher. Very hard to pick up for defenders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh74 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Makes a hell of a difference when a foreign player comes in and is given plenty of game time and patience to adjust to english football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 He's started to pull out his tricks and beat players a lot, I think he was scared of being cleaned out earlier and was a bit more conservative Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 He's like all the best bits of Cabaye, Ben Arfa and Rob Lee molded into a player, with the Nolan/Speed knack of knowing when to arrive in the box. He's fucking sublime. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deckard 13 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Like nothing I've seen at Newcastle so I don't see the sense in comparing him personally. A wonderful footballer. Should be scoring more goals mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
