Alex 35605 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Not in the same league but he reminds me of Scholes at times the way he just seems to stroll about but find that area of space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogerbarton 24 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Cabaye used to have the same vision. Would put Shelvey at least on par with him if he can become consistent and cut out his 'smelly Arab' moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LooneyToony 41 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 how did tiote do? By all accounts it was sausage-shaped but lumpy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Cheers for that HF, got it on now. Early doors still but that Findlay lad seems to be fairly positive with his passing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12496 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 how did tiote do? He was pretty poor tbh, he looked slightly out of shape to me and was so slow on the ball which led to him being caught a few times. Thought we played well and comfortably controlled the game, Shelvey completely changes the side mind as we were able to play 3 youngsters in their debuts and comfortably beat what was largely the starters of a Championship side (it was also almost the exact same 11 we drew with), 3 assists and he looked really up for it. The three young lads all did canny I thought, Barlaser and El-Mhanni were both positive and looked to move the attack forward, similarly Findlay was more positive with his passing and bringing the ball forward than Hanley (although Hanley did a good job overall). Barlaser had a good surging run at one point and probably took the wrong choice when he chose to try and take it into the area himself rather than pass to Gouffran who was open but it's great to see that sort of confidence and positivity, El-Mhanni also put in a canny cross at 1-0 up and Gouffran had a decent chance at it but put it wide. Thought that was Gouffran's best performance in a while and he took his goal well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1260 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I've not seen it again but it seemed to me that there wasn't a pass on to Gouffran when Barlaser made that run. Certainly not an easy one. I thought he was looking for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7181 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 The cynic in me reckons he had a funny turn and collapsed and had woke up to find a bunch of strangers bouncing up and down on his chest. In my experience you don't have a cardiac arrest and then spontaneously take a big gasp and wake up again Cath might correct me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly not an easy one. I thought he was looking for him. I just found out he's related to me (albeit not closely) so I fully retract my bit about him making a bad decision, he was class.
