Anita Not Filling Cabaye's Boots?

Cabaye, 26, has not played for the club since November 11 after picking up a groin injury during the home defeat to Swansea City that required surgery.

Vurnon Anita: "Yohan is a really good player for us, an important player, but unfortunately he is not here right now.

"We must deal with this and other players need to step up.

"Yohan is more attacking player than our other midfielders. He brings a lot of creativity, just like Hatem (Ben Arfa), who showed that at Fulham.

"We definitely miss Yohan and we all hope he will be back sooner rather than later because he's a top player."
