matta Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 get him upfront with carroll and i think he can be a good player for us. Rather play Løvenkrands than Harewood. edit: i also think Carroll would benefit from having a pacey player with decent movement around him. Could give his physique more worth than it already is.

Dr.Spaceman Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 You know what, we are top of the league, I'm glad he put his family before Newcastle. Say we were 10th or something then maybe there would have been a problem, but he has proven he's a decent player when played in the right position with himself in the right frame of mind. Heres hoping he starts producing the goods (again). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest toonlass Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 From what someone on here was saying the other day he dad has been poorly. Hopefully he is on the mend, and Peter can get back to playing, and being played in the right position too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 At some point of the season I can see him getting a bag full of goals, hopefully sooner rather than later. Hope his family stuff improves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmonkey Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Glad to hear he's had a problem that is now sorted. Was starting to look like we've given a mediocre clone of Damien Duff a 3 year contract, hopefully this will be the start of him turning things around.

tmonkey Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 mediocre? If it's possible, then yes. Duff was crap for us, but he at least offered a few basic things at times, such as showing himself for the ball and running backwards with it. Glad to hear he's had a problem that is now sorted. Was starting to look like we've given a mediocre clone of Damien Duff a 3 year contract, hopefully this will be the start of him turning things around. He will look s**** on the wing though. He is not a winger any more than Colo or Harper are. Won't disagree. He's had a couple of appearances up front though as substitute and still offered absolutely nothing. Not wanting to write him off as naturally that's silly given the lack of pitch time, but I am hoping that we've not signed another dud who was only playing for a longer contract last season and may have been using family matters as an excuse (or maybe not, in which case I'm being a bit of a cunt).

The lad will score for fun in the Championship if he was given a run in the team and played up front. He will look s**** on the wing though. He is not a winger any more than Colo or Harper are.

Ronaldo Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Lovenkrands is a decent striker, but an horrifically bad (to the point of tears) winger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I accept that I may be totally wrong on this, but like Martins possibly wussing out against Stoke last year, that chest injury Lovenkrands picked up at the back end of last season against whoever it was seemed a tad suspicious, and could well be an indication of someone who hasn't got the willpower to be a professional footballer anymore (but still wants the wages every month). It's just a suspicion, a possibility, nothing more. Just like it's a possibility that Lovenkrands is actually a secret international caped crimefighter during the twilight hours.

Newcastle Fan Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 He can start working harder in training during the break to improve himself a bit, he has the abillty to rip this league apart but i've seen very little of that this season. he needs to work a bit on his skill with the ball, would love to see him partner Carroll upfront.

I got some flak for suggesting he copped out of some games with that injury last season, but he does seem to end up with off the pitch problems wherever he goes.

TRon Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 It's strange how certain posters can't make a point without hurling totally unrelated insults or condescending remarks. Is it because of their excessive intelligence or do they have mental issues? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
