aimaad22 3472 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 If Arsenal are serious about winning the title would signing the likes of Cabaye make sense? If there is a bid, one look at the league table would tempt anyone, World Cup year or not. He's off in the summer for champions league football anyway, if he can squeeze in a league title as well before then he may think its well worth it. He's been mostly very good this season, and on occasions (like the last two games) utterly fabulous. Arsenal dont need him. Man Utd on the other hand desperately need a player like him.

Rayvin 4964 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Fortunately for us, Man U can't guarantee him Champs League football any more than we can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26441 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 "Everybody is for sale at some price" How many managers bloody talk like that? While it's not nice to hear, it's what everyone in football knows. We won't sell cheap but if the price is right then we'll do business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pretty much advertises his players for sale. Its maddening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26441 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I think it's partly a defence mechanism after looking like a fool following the Carroll transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 4964 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Not to tempt fate but what do we think Cabaye is worth? £25m? Presumably we'd get about half of that back to spend elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChezGiven 0 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I think it's partly a defence mechanism after looking like a fool following the Carroll transfer. Also why pretend thats not what everyone is talking about, Goals on Sunday took comments from twitter telling us he would be perfect for Man U and then discussion from Di Matteo and Pearce about how hard it will be to hang on to him. Also astounds me that people read newspaper articles and assume that the quotes are direct without prompted questions and come in the order that they are stated on the page. I presume these people read the articles with the mouths hanging open and dribble falling on to the page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I dont really fear losing a player, the worry for me is I dont trust them to get a player "over the line" when we most need them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatty 24 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 (edited) I'd rather have Cabaye too. I'm just asking what he's worth. Realistically or on the Fellani scale? 'cos the latter would put him around Bale money. Probably £20m after the season he has had. And that is a complete guess.

ADP 0 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I think he'll go in the summer like. The way he is playing at the moment (consistency having been a problem for him last season mind), he is a champions league player. If he continues this for the rest of the season and has a decent world cup - something entirely possible - I think people will definitely be in for him. Fantastic player who has grown into a real leader on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonTheMag 4 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 He's shaping up to be a 10 goal a season midfielder, which is rare these days - especially from someone who plays as far back as Cabaye. Just needs to increase his assist output - only has 2 so far this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just needs to increase his assist output - only has 2 so far this season. I'd be interested to know how he fares in 'chance creation' mind you; as you say he doesn't tend to get assists, but he does start a lot of our moves.

Tom 13877 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 According to whoscored.com he's created 33 chances this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 4964 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I can't find that stat on their layout, which will mean I'm looking in the wrong place. Just be interested to compare it to a few others. Have no real context for whether or not 33 is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ausman 0 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I think it helps that Anita is now playing regular, which allows Cabaye to roam around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
