Benwell Lad Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Thought he was probably the best midfield performer on the pitch today, amongst some pretty stellar rivals. The way our game changed after he went off probably verifies that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 He's a good central midfielder, the animosity towards him after WBA was uncalled for, despite how poor he was on the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 He's a good central midfielder, the animosity towards him after WBA was uncalled for, despite how poor he was on the day. No it wasn't, he's looked unmotivated and lack lustre in previous games. Today he actually looked our best midfielder out there which suggests he can only show up in games where the midfield battle is less intense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geofire17814 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Any idea on his injury? Wasn't walking too well. Thought he played well and I'm not his biggest fan to say the least. Pardew said it was cramp. Pardew said he was crap? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Played like he did last season today. A pleasant improvement from Satan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Awesome ball for Coloccini for the goal, still think he lacked in physical fitness though. Pleasantly a good performance from his horror shows earlier in the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Still has a ways to go after the gutless display at WBA, but definitely a step forward today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Had a good game today - he does need to sort his fitness out though, tires easily and seems to be carrying a few too many pounds Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ridzuan Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Definitely agree that he had a good game for us today since a long long time. If he continues to keep playing like that for the rest of the season, I wouldnt have to cringe everytime I see his name on the starting line-up. But lets face it, if Tiote was fit, he wouldnt be playing. Nevertheless, I would love to see him as well as Gosling shining for us if given the chance.

Heron Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Just like with all our players at the moment, I find it hard to criticise any of them because I know they always give it their all. Guthrie isn't terrible, nor is he brilliant, he is an average player who can either have a great game or a 'mare. He always gives it his best though.

Cajun Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 The last two games he has shown more than I thought he could at this level, if he can keep it up then it will be a massive plus for us. Still needs to work on his stamina. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still needs to work on his stamina. I'd keep him in there whilst Tiote is out, and then bring him back in when Nolan isn't fit to play/Tiote gets suspended again.

Ronaldo Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 He's a good central midfielder, the animosity towards him after WBA was uncalled for, despite how poor he was on the day. He pretended to be injured because he was embarassed, you can't blame folk for being hostile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 The faking injury thing at WBA was embarrassing. I think fans take that kind of thing to heart because if any of us had the chance to play for our club we'd give 100% and savour every moment regardless of how poor we were. Seeing a player in the team's shirt act like that is pretty unforgiveable from the spectator's view. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pretended to be injured because he was embarassed, you can't blame folk for being hostile. Not embarrassed - he pretended he was injured because he fucked up. He hid from his responsibilities and then curled up and died. It'll take a fair amount of very good performances to win me over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
