Tsunami Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 His attitude is spot on most of the time but not always. Like when? Everton for a start. He couldn't be arsed. I wasn't at Goodison obviously, so I wouldn't have seen it as well, but I've heard this a few times and it seems ridiculous to me. He was a winger playing the role of lone striker as Everton were putting us under heavy pressure. He ran around a bit when he got the ball. I don't know what else people want. I must have been at a different game. He wasn't the lone striker from where I was. Carroll was up and down in both areas, Jonas had a gentle 15 minute stroll along the left handside and showed little commitment. Not saying he does this all the time but it was very noticeable on Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I hate the way he loses the ball and just stops and does nothing to get it back. He's such a frustrating player, so limited but useful to a point! Unless your taking the piss, are you watching the same Jonas as me? When Jonas loses the ball he usualy makes it his personal mission to track back 60 yards back down the field to get it back, he's actualy a realy good tackler aswell from the side. Thats why I like him to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Showed he can cross with his right, not his fault he gets played on the left.. that corner for our 4th was a cracking ball in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Parka Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Guti was deffo up top at everton. Carrol was playing centerback for the last 10. I assumed hughton wanted him to pressure the ball, but it didn't work out well for guti. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Cant beleive the over reaction to a corner. There are kids up and down the country who can swing a ball in 25 yards for gods sake, i dare say its the exception to the rule where Jonas is concerned though.

pedro111 Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I can't beleive some of the nit picking of his game. 'He loses the ball and does nothing to get it back' What?? He busts a lung; sometimes 20+ yards to try and get it back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Jay Sea Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Nowt to do with Guti's performance but what really f*cked me off is the swopping of his shirt at HALF-TIME with Ferrerira. What the f*cks all that about? Why not full-time? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 For a lad that can't cross a ball, he put in a decent corner tonight. That corner was probably the best one we've had this season, it was brilliant and unexpected. Made for an awesome celebration.. in my living room. I think some passing students were a little bemused by the sudden shouts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the f*cks all that about? Why not full-time? They were probably thinking of switching sides, as Ferreira did a better job than Jonas winning the ball for us.

David Icke - Son of God Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 He's a great worker but his final product just isn't there and never will be, it's not his game. I like him but he's limited in certain areas, I think he's best suited to playing on the left with Enrique but if Ben Arfa makes that his own then he'll just have to wait his turn.

alexf Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 For a lad that can't cross a ball, he put in a decent corner tonight. That corner was probably the best one we've had this season, it was brilliant and unexpected. Because he put it in with his right foot. He's right footed, plays on the left and therefore crosses almost entirely with his left foot. Not saying he'd make a great right winger, but I'd play him on the right or not at all. Nah, he's much more dangerous cutting inside than he is hugging the byline and making crosses. I recall Kinnear moving him around from left to right quite a few times in that first season, and we came to the collective conclusion that he should play on the left or not at all. there was one game i remember last year where we were losing, was it bristol away? anyways jonas had a great 2nd half and switched to the right and caused all sorts of trouble and got his goal. while routledge from the left set up another for carroll, but thats the last time i can remember the 2 wingers switching for any length of time but it had an effect so wouldn't mind seeing us to it again if we are having trouble breaking a team down. especially as ben arfa can also play either side comfortably Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenham Mag Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 He done some good defensive work last night. Although this was out done when he tried to dribble the ball out of defence and losing it. Wouldn't mind him starting on the right and Ben Arfa on the left.

Cajun Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Listen up, the guy is class; his attitude is spot on, he loves the club, he is exciting to watch, he will run through a brick wall for the team and for the above facts I will always love watching him play. Sure he doesn't produce as much end product as we all would like but that's life and probably something to do with him playing on the left. He would get in my Newcastle team every single day of the week. He'd be fucking shattered by Wednesday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Constantly trying to get on to his right foot, absolutely has to be given a chance on the right ahead of Routledge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Constantly trying to get on to his right foot, absolutely has to be given a chance on the right ahead of Routledge. We play wingers who cut inside in the 4-5-1 right now. Jonas can't cut inside from the right. Besides, as mentioned, we tried him on both sides in 2008-2009, he's infinitely better on the left.

M4 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Nah, his linking up with Enrique makes up for the fact he isn't left footed. Plus he often gets Enrique into great crossing positions. Did well today. Sadly Hughton seems to believe it has to be either him or Ben Arfa. We should be looking to have all three of HBA, Jonas and Routledge on the pitch in games like today.
