  1. I have gone on record before he signed saying he wasn't going to be a success, but I'm quite astonished to read so many posts on here saying he's s*** and never played well for us. Are you suffering from collective amnesia? Just to jog some of those brain cells:

     

    http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,92469.msg4048313.html#msg4048313 (read on from here up until page 145 spanning more than a month)

     

    Then again here: http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,92469.msg4660459.html#msg4660459  (up to page 205 at least, spanning four months)

     

    Simple fact is that he has had good patches and bad patches, has been unfairly dropped at times and what it all boils down to, he just isn't a Pardew player at all, simply because we are not a team trying to play football. Will go on the same scrapheap as the rest of the Pardew rejects, so probably join some CL club for less than we paid for.

    Good post, glad you posted the link cos seeing some of the comments about him being poop and never having a good game for us is nonsense

     

    Even with Pardew as manager he has had good games and he did well with that run he got in the side last year, though we will never see the best of him under Pardew

     

    He is a much better footballer than Colback and I would have him in the side over him every day of the week

     

    No just no I think colback isn't as good with ball at feet but he offers more than anita as a whole- get the tinted glasses off

    What does Colback offer? Far too often I just see him running around well out of position BUT because he runs hard and kicks people there is this false idea that he offers something

  3. What's he so good at? Seen virtually f*** all this season tbh.

    Just has a touch of class. Kind of like how even though he was a bit fat Kluivert just oozed class. Intelligent movement, he can always find a bit of space, good first touch, pretty quick, good at jinking past a player and has a real strikers instinct.

     

    Puts Cisse and the like to shame in so many ways.

     

    8 goals in the equivalent of about 8 games and you still can't resist. :lol:

    It's beyond ridiculous now

     

    Cisse is a goalscorer and he has 8 of them yet he continues to have digs at him at every opportunity

  4. It was a mistake but it's not relevant to anything.

    A mistake? ffs, that's the last thing I would describe it as

     

    There was absolutely no need for Pardew to highlight it BUT he is an arsehole so it was totally expected

  5. When everyone in the ground plus millions at home know exactly what he's going to do next - shift the ball onto his left and go for the bye line, it's no wonder premier league full backs have him sussed.

     

    I can see this beginning to take off as the bog standard opinion of Sammy. In reality, there's more to his game than that, and he can be very effective down the centre as well.

     

    Defenders are aware of him as a danger and are starting to double up on him. It can then often be the best option to keep it simple and just go down the outside, and the usual result from that on Sunday was a cross, corner or throw in, in our favour.

     

    His first touch isn't great, so if he can be pressured right away, he struggles a bit. But once it's under his control, he's starting to use it a lot more wisely.

    Corner in our favour? Does such a thing even exist?
