Says it all about our winger situation that Anita is playing there...

You really understood the point. Because Ryan Taylor is clearly the only example of this club being a piece of shit Have to give credit to Ashley mind. Couple months after hiring Benitez and people don't seem to remember what has been going on at this club for the past god knows how many years. Like it never happened and we're just a normal football club destined for great things.

Please tell me he actually said tiki-taka Based on that article he just said he wants them to retain the ball more...

Ok then, lets turn it this way. What do you think they told him /promised him when he signed? Maybe something about ambition? Maybe even the word success was mentioned? Or do you think they told him that we'll try to hang on in the Premierleague collecting tv money, sometimes we might be relegated but don't worry we'll be back soon enough. So during his time here the club has shown ambition to be succesful? It has hired managers and players to support that ambition? Good contract and starts every match Well fair enough, I guess that's all you can dream of when you are a Newcastle player.

So does acting like a complete dick only work one way? Never said it did. Neither did I.

If you want players (or any other employees or customers) to really be loyal you have to earn it, not buy it. Newcastle as a club doesnt deserve or earn loyalty. It has tried to buy it and failed miserably. Just to be clear I'm not saying Sissoko is exactly handling this well

So does acting like a complete dick only work one way?

I think the point was: Should we expect players to be loyal to the club when the club isnt to the players and treats them like any other product sold in Sports Direct? Not to even mention the fact most of them were signed with the promise of using Newcastle as a stepping stone. Does loyalty only work one way?

Nobody is willing to pay 17m? Ok cant wait to hear how you know that...

So how was he today? Did he look like a natural goal scorer?

Aye I think he'll do well but i don't share the confidence that some on here have for him. Actually that wasn't accurate either which is why I deleted that Apologies. I'll stop now. Hope he does well but find the confidence of some a bit weird.

He's as close to one as we've got. How's that? Has the best goal scoring record or what? If he stays fit he'll score more goals for us than anyone else this season imo. Maybe, maybe not. Hasn't been the most prolific so far. Not exactly sure why people are expecting huge things from someone with a pretty average scoring record. Nobody said they expected huge things from him. Just to score more than anyone else at the club if he remains fit. That's a pretty huge thing to expect. Think Perez might be the top scorer actually.

Mohamed Diame - 11 out of 10

For every match Moussa doesn't score a goal £1m dissapears from his value. True story.

Not like you to have absolutely no idea what is going on, but one of the last criticisms you could make about Anita is that he doesn't "have legs." I think he's talking about the length of their legs. edit...so late. edit2...so bad as well..bye

This is probably more than obvious to most people.

From what I've understood he has been pretty prolific before he joined Newcastle. So that kind of makes your post complete garbage from start to finish.

Maybe they were like, hmm, supporting him? Guess that would make them supporters though instead of doylems so I'm not sure.

No one with shit ball control could make the kind of runs with the ball he does, often in tight space as well. The end.

Sissoko "just shit ball control" This just keeps getting better.

Disagree. Having him in the squad will allow Armstrong to go out on loan. Which is what he needs.

"After Gini Wijnaldum's future affected the focus of the team at Doncaster" What the shit

I really wonder what kind of views people have about football when they draw these conclusions that 0+0 in stats = contributed fuck all. Is this like an English thing? No wonder you can't produce even one top quality manager. (tongue partially in cheek)
