They've got themselves a bargain. He'll do well there and for that money is a steal. To be honest if Rafa could have won him round I would have much preferred him in our midfield to some of the others who are going to play this season. Overall I'll remember him more fondly than he perhaps deserves.
Tiote trying to get a gig in Spain now. To be honest I hope he stays as I think we could use another defensive option in central midfield.
He seems pretty desperate to get away..................... time to move him on for me. I just cant see him playing more than a handful of games in a row so I would rather have a settled midfield rather than him drifting in and out injured. Two failed medicals tells its own story for me.
Confirms what I/we suspected since he came back last season, that he was carrying an ongoing problem.
Talk about desperate, Tiote will go to anybody who is daft enough to take him. Money crazy crock and time is fast running out. Got a feeling we will be stuck with him until his current contract expires. Can't give the twat away. Another one no better than Sissoko. Good riddance, whether it's now or later doesn't matter to me. Both he and Sissoko sums up everything that has poisoned our club, but no longer.
He certainly hasn't been the powerhouse that he once was for a while now. He's been decent for us but I think we should try and off load for a small fee (or a large fee if its a Merseyside based club) or failing that come to some agreement and let him leave.
His legs looked thinner to me since he returned from his last injury and he was moving slower but not sure if that was down to him getting his match fitness back or it was an ongoing issue. If he stays I think it's a good option for us tbh. I'd rather Tiote replacing an injured Hayden than bringing Colback in to the team.
Afaik Turkey window stays open quite a bit longer, like 2 weeks? So maybe there's no rush on this one. I wouldnt mind Tiote playing as he's 5 x the player Colback is, even on one leg.
Tiote is not a problem. He has said little and if he comes back to us for half a season fine - I do think he would be given a free though or he'd work something out with us. He won't get a game though unless Hayden is injured as colback is watching him at present I reckon
