When fit he should start ahead of Jmac every time - he has proved to be a very good signing and after a slow start he is a real midfield dynamo! I don't know about that. Macca has really proved to be quality for us. He's been solid from end to end, great link up play out wide and a fantastic game against Leicester. Roy puts his trust in him for a reason

Yes, good description. He seems to run slowly with the ball but doesn’t lose it and releases it well. He reminds me a bit of Papa Boupa Diop aka 'The Wardrobe' who played for Fulham about 10 years ago. A bit more agile and skilful than Diop and defo an enforcer and man mountain in the middle of the park. Good under the radar signing.

If you are reading this Roy, just to remind you that Cheikhou Kouyate was sitting behind you on the subs bench yesterday against Brighton except for the odd run down the touchline to warm up. You didnt use him and we really Coulthard have done with him in midfield as it needed some steel.........just saying!

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Kouyaté at centre back' by bexleydave He did play some games at centre back for West Ham in his first season there but can't really remember how it went. I prefer him in midfield as he seems to be one of the few midfielders we have who can retain the ball and find a team mate

This one quality is noticeably lacking in our midfield, even Max Meyer is being programmed to 'get rid of it quick' Oh for a Fabrigas

Kouyate is a proper box-to-box player who is very good at covering player's backs when they push on but also adds a real physical presence in the middle of the park and in the opposing box. He isn't the best passer, but when he keeps it simple is very effective. Schlupp has started disappearing again after a purple patch so I'd stick CK back in tonight. Mind you, I'd also bring McArthur back in for Meyer, as he gets at the opposition and breaks the game up well.
