Cabaye is the missing link in our team But if cabaye returns then Abied has to go back to the bench.
In a counter attacking system right now Sissoko is doing all the running with the ball from defense to attack along with the wingers and the striker, if a player like cabaye's passing range comes in all he has to do is find Sissoko at the other end which will be an even quicker counter attack.
Cabaye was doing that when we were playing this formation before feeding Ben Arfa and Ba with Cisse as striker.
Having said that I think the club has to move on and that's why as I was saying at the start of last transfer window that we have to go in for Clement Grenier a like for like replacement for Cabaye but younger.
Yes, he's injured at the moment.
But our team is confident at the moment which is doing wonders but we need a new spine to it, a striker, a CM and now Abied is there as new DM and a new CB.
JT give it a few weeks man let's see what happens in the next 4 matches
At the moment the way the formation is Cabaye would not get in the team
Have a little faith
In January we may need 3 players ir. 5 after Tiote and looks like Santon are sold and that will be just to reach and stay mid table
I agree mate. I just think we need to get a bit more premier league experience in the squad.
Players like Cabaye are rare, of all the great players we've had not many compare. I think SDJ can play a similar role but more advanced like cabaye did last season. So we might already have the solution?
CB we should bring back MYM and we will have Lascelles next season. He doesn't seem to be getting game time at forest, maybe they will let him leave early?
As for a striker, we will have to take a gamble and hope ee get a Pelle or Sakho than a brown ideye or van wolfswinkel.
It is so hit and miss with strikers, it may just make sense to try what we have this season and review in the new year for next season
Bony was the man we should have had
All talk of players to come in needs forgetting about until we see just how good/bad the team we have now performs
When you think we have our 2 players at Forest Biggy Good Streete Ferguson Vuckic Armstrong and a few more not even near the squad a shake up is needed
No matter what, a quality striker and CB are needed and a playmaker of quality would be the icing on the cake
But we need recognise that strength in the team us very much required and Colback & Abied should be respected
Ashley's aim is 10th so no good getting carried away
