Andrew 4748 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Clue me in as to how Sissoko is suspended for the Arsenal match. I understand that 5 yellows mean a one game suspension but I'm a little nonplussed about Sissoko's. Going into the West Ham match Sissoko had 4 yellows, then he got number 5. Then he got a second yellow number 6, which resulted in a Red. Does the red cancel the 2 yellows knocking his total yellows back to 4, then the yellow he got against Chelsea brought him back to a total of 5. Doesn't seem quite right to me. I think you've nailed it aye, 5 and 6 actually totalled a Red so 1 game ban for that, now hes picked up his 5th yellow that didn't result in a red he's got another. It makes sense I suppose, imagine how annoying it would be for a player to be on 3/4 yellow, get 2 in a game and face a 2 game ban. This way none of the yellows count towards 2 separate suspensions.

ClubSpinDoctor 0 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 It's a shit rule anyway that benefits the bigger clubs with deeper squads. They show yellows cards for next to nothing as well now, and there's no option to appeal the shit ones. Needs sorting out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30593 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Sissoko told LEquipe: "When I was young, Arsenal was my favourite club. "There was my idol Patrick Vieira. Ive always loved this club, I still love them. "Afterwards, there was a lot of rumours. I do not pay too much attention. "I have an agent [bakari Sanogo] that takes care of that. If something should happen, it will happen. "I have ambition. My goal is to play at the best clubs, playing the Champions League, win trophies, but today I am a Magpie and I am very happy."

aimaad22 4156 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I dont even blame the players anymore to be honest. Why the hell would anyone with a bit of talent and ambition want to stay here?We'll be reading similar comments from Ayoze this time next year, if not earlier.

Gemmill 44846 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Aye he's better than this NUFC unfortunately. Only a matter of time and it looks like that time is coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5217 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I just hope it's in the summer rather than January. Our season (such as it is) seems to be harpooned every January. And then we'll have another relegation fight on our hands as we realise that the board were too incompetent to find a suitable replacement.

ewerk 30593 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Aye but at least Pardew would be able to recycle last year's Cabaye excuse for the rest of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21915 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 We probably would have sold him earlier if pardew hadn't insisted on playing him out wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acrossthepond 877 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 More of his expert man-management and player improvement. Mishandle the player for more than a year, then start playing him in his correct position and claim the improvement is down to his own management. Genius.

Yup, cant be mad especially when Pardew has been trying his best to drum up interest in him for the last 6 months anyway. Agree on Perez as well, the lad is looking class.

Kitman 2204 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I think Pardew actually said his best position was out wide. The moron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoslingBeast 0 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Our midfield would be very thin if Sissoko is to leave early January. Who's our options? Colback, Anita, a Siem De Jong without match fitness, Ryan Taylor can play there, perhaps Jonas, Bigi....doesn't very look good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21915 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 i can see him doing well for arsenal. i reckon we'll try to milk closer to 20m for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I think arsenal is just a lazy link for the papers to write about, most midfielders get linked to go there, but none rarely do. I think Wenger would want someone more defensive minded if he was gonna get another midfielder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't imagine him being a regular first teamer there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonasjuice 0 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Counter attack option against the big boys in the CL? Other than that you would think there must be better options for a team that seemingly has CL winning aspirations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
