bobbyshinton 59 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I have only 2 words to say about Obertan. James Perch. eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenL 0 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Thought Obertan did exactly what he should be capable of, causing a bit of panic among a second-rate defence regardless of end product (which we know he can't do anyway). He's found his level with that lot. Marveaux had a shocker. I don't get this one bit, but quite a few people have said it. I thought he was the best player on the park.

wykikitoon 16598 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I don't get this one bit, but quite a few people have said it. I thought he was the best player on the park. That says a lot then. First half he was ripping their left back and couldnt get a decent ball in. Second half he had more than 1 man on him most of the time and couldnt get the beating of his man as much as the first half. He wasted far too many chances. Grafted aye, end product, no. Says a lot for the rest if Obertan was the man for us last night. We were lucky regarding the Peno's, could easily had one of those go against us. We did what we needed to do and that was go through, but we made it hard work for ourselves in the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13834 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Yep blatant penalty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene_Clark 12 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Yep blatant penalty frankly, he should have held 2 that bounced off him; the penalty & the one immediately after we scored. hopefully last night was just an aberrant evening & not a sulk by him at having to play a Europa Cup game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13834 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 To be fair he's probably been looking forward to it massively, it's been a long time since Sicily for Tim! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks good when the balls at his feet. He just looks a neat tidy player. Give him a few chances in the PL and he could become a good player for us.

wykikitoon 16598 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Draw is on, lads & lasses, were in Pot 3! http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/season=2013/draws/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Obertan was much improved in attitude. He wasn't hiding, he was more aggressive and more enthusiastic to have the ball and to win it than I've ever seen him at Newcastle. As the commentator alluded to, I think that had a great deal to with the quality of his opponent. Obertan knew he had the beating of their LB from early on, and a very picky referee who didn't believe it's a contact sport, so he enjoyed every second of running at him and past him. His delivery though was still woeful. Last night was his peak performance, and it put him on par with an average Guttierez show of endeavour without end product. If he could show that endeavour in the league, where the pace is much faster, and if was winning us corners and free-kicks in the danger areas for other folk to deliver, I'd say he'd be adequate cover.
