Unlike Cole and Jarvis, Noble has played across the midfield, including wide left, wide right, alongside the Parker anchor and in the anchor role himself. In fact, Noble has been messed around by a succession of managers (remember Zola picking him wide on the left?) and has just got on with the job without complaining. He is the sort of player whose value will only be fully appreciated when he is not there. More completed passes than any other player in squad, more average completed passes per game than any other player in the squad, most completed tackles by a midfielder in the squad, most miles covered in total and on average than any other player in the squad...and still Tweedledee and Tweedledum bang their anti Noble drum!Hammersfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08872521473888699856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4157334771526760271.post-19541290488738379892013-01-04T15:34:44.051+00:002013-01-04T15:34:44.051+00:00"Restrictions come when you have limitations ..."Restrictions come when you have limitations to your abilities".<br /><br />That is exactly my point!

He will certainly give Upton Park a lift if he plays against Man U. on Saturday..<br /><br />When he was at Chelsea, Mourinho said he had talent but was difficult to place in the team as he was neither a forward or a midfield player. The obvious role for him is to replace Nolan. I am not convinced that we can afford the luxury of them both in the same team. He can play wide as well (usually on the left, so that would be instead of Jarvis), but he is not a natural winger. I can't see how he can replace Mark Noble. Chamakh fom Arsenal rumoured to be the next arrival. That is not so exciting and he can only be a replacement for Carroll or Carlton Cole?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4157334771526760271.post-45217160866141665972013-01-03T22:43:06.926+00:002013-01-03T22:43:06.926+00:00Good man Sav, but Diame is not in the team because...Good man Sav, but Diame is not in the team because he is injured.Hammersfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08872521473888699856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4157334771526760271.post-477823775415810632013-01-03T22:26:15.017+00:002013-01-03T22:26:15.017+00:00Guilty as charged HF!
