Moussa Sissoko made his name as a defensive midfielder at Toulouse, but quickly developed into his explosive frame and began to let loose during games.
In a sense, he became too undisciplined to play as a screen in front of the back four, and Toulouse manager Alain Casanova replaced him with Etienne Capoue. This released Sissoko into a box-to-box role.
Alan Pardew went one further, and upon signing him for Newcastle started playing him as a disruptive attacking midfielder.
