What is Cabaye 's natural role ? Midfielder with a good passing range. We need luka to win the ball back to pass to cabaye to find our wide players to create attacks.

I have consistenly said on HOL about strengthening needed in that vital "Engine room".Our central midfield is found wanting both offensively and defensively. Edited by Willo (09 Feb 2017 10.01am)

He also reads the game well in terms of making interceptions and puts in a shift as well. He is also the one player we have who always offers an option to receive a pass. He'd seem like a natural fit to play alongside Luka, with Remy as the No.10, or playing that 10 role himself with McArthur next to Luka.
Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

Any idea on when the boy Luka will be available to play? Since Jedi went and Pardews game plan involved conceding the midfield battle without a fight, we hav had a ridiculously soft underbelly that has been exposed time and time again. We are crying out for a Jedi type warrior in DM to save our season. Someone to take charge and contest the midfield battle and protect our back 4. Luka is the man we are all pinning our hopes on and the sooner he gets going the better. My only worry is that we are placing so much reliance on a guy who has only played in the vastly inferior Greek league and some games for Serbia who are hardly a footballing giant...so the question still remains as to whether he will make it in the premiership. Only time will tell, but there is going to be a lot of pressure on him... Edited by Herts_CPFC (09 Feb 2017 12.04pm)

Does luka live on the second floor

With luka work permit taking longer than excpected and cabaye doubtful. Our midfield will be weak and stoke will dominate. It does wonder why luka was not signed in early Jan. It doesn't matter if ward plays or Tomkins plays rb. Until a midfield enforcer protects the back 4 we will struggle to be hard to beat. Great thread. A player I have never seen before can't play equals a defeat. Genius.
