See you're losing Song. Just saying that If you want him - 1. He'll cost you 25m at the least. I know he's not worth that, but we don't sell a player just for what he's worth. 2. He's a bit more solid defensively than Song IMO, stronger and more of a predator. But he's not as creative, he wont produce near the same quality passes as Song produces. Tiote isn't a **** passer, but he's definitely no player maker. 3. Tiote, despite being awesome, picks up, on average, one yellow card every 2 games. He's played like 52 matches and got 25 yellow cards XD. Still want him? Go for someone else. He's **** k thx bai.
Newcastle have a quality squad. In a way, I'd quite like them to stay together just to see what they can do. Just not against us. And if Tiote is available....
Aside from that wondergoal last season, what else does he do? he runs into blind alleys and loses the ball, like gervinho.
I just don't rate him. But we obviously disagree, i mean, you said you thought cabaye was the best CM in the league. Your views are a little weird.
Look, Cabaye is an excellent CM, i won't deny that, but he's no match for people like Gerrard, Modric, Arteta etc. And having just seen the highlights from the spuds game on Motd, Aside from winning the penalty i did not notice Ben Arfa, much like earlier when i watched the game, he was anonymous.
Cabaye and Ben Arfa are both awesome players. Ben Arfa has a way better final ball/ shot on him than Gervinho and really caused us problems at the Emirates last year, which you probably should have noticed.
No, i noticed that we won that game at the death thanks to our captain, and that our former captain got in a punch up with their keeper.
