    In the time he’s been here, he’s shown he can:

     

    Score penalties


    Head balls on to no-man’s land 

     

    Run at a keeper and defenders and hold a position on the pitch

     

    That a £25m return? I know we stayed up last season but I always felt people gave him a little too much credit for that 

    100%, he was poor for us last season too. We stayed up despite him, not because of him.

    In my view those penalties should never be given (unless the tackle is judged to be reckless or dangerous). He's kicked the ball so there's nothing he or anyone else can do to stop it going for a goal kick. Therefore he hasn't been impeded by the tackle.

     

    Happens time and time again, and I completely disagree with it. And yet their argument for not giving that foul on Fraser by the keeper last year was that the opposing player had the ball! He was far more able to influence play than someone who kicks the ball out.

     

    There are far too many soft as shite penalties. Puts me off the sport tbh, to some extent. I think the powers that be like lots of penalties because they think it adds to the entertainment.

    A foul is still a foul regardless of whether the player is still in control of the ball.

    Yeh, because a forum of a small group of Newcastle fans critiquing a player is going to "ruin our predicted success" :lol: Talk about "fannies" :rolleyes:

     

    There are obviously some overreactions and hyperbole on this forum, especially during a match when emotions are high but some posters on here seem to get a hard on over calling other posters 'bed wetters', 'fannies' etc and seem to think it's criminal to say anything negative whatsoever.
