That really has nothing at all to do with what I've just said, though, has it? Nolan scored something like 19 goals in our promotion season. Shelvey won't get a fraction of that.
Except Nolan had a track record of getting a very respectable amount of goals (which is why he was extremely useful in the Championship) and Shelvey doesn't.
Fucking students, man. Just a hellish experience even trying a grab a pint in Newcastle on a Monday night now. Place has been put through the retard mill beyond repair.
Taylor and Tiote, more like. Playing that fucking idiot Tiote is madness is the best of times but when you've got a defence incapable of defending set pieces it's like asking to concede.
you would if you had the sense to sign and play a pacey small player off him.
Exactly. Some of the fastest attacks in PL history have included a frontman with no pace - us under Bobby being a good example.
Shola never started most of a season for us though.
He would've done that or come pretty close in 05-06.
Waste of time, anyway. Shit player. Thank fuck he's in the lower leagues where he belongs.
Lovenkrands' and Mitrovic's goal rates are pretty comparable in the Premier League. The former also had a turn of pace and was a neat finisher.
Are you on crack tonight or what? Lovenkrands scored about 7 PL goals for us in 2 and a half seasons.
