Carlito Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Funny how a lot of people are changing their tunes on Zoggy all of a sudden, but I'd gladly take him back in the summer. Clearly the best player in their team by some margin and we shouldn't have gotten rid to start with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I would gladly take him back - he was stupid for wanting to leave (much like Bernard and a few other frenchmen before him) BUT I think he realises that In anycase he is a quality player and would improve us as a team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bmoregeordie Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I've defended him in other posts here. FWIW, he played on the right. Upfront. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGSC Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Do we really need an attitude/personality like that in our squad? No doubt he would improve us greatly though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Away Toon Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 He's so good that when he was finally picked for the full French squad for a friendly, that they played him for a half, saw how technically useless he is and have never picked him again.

Taylor Swift Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 No need to sell Jonas even if he comes back. We need the squad depth anyway, if we're to be challenging for a top 4 place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 He's so good that when he was finally picked for the full French squad for a friendly, that they played him for a half, saw how technically useless he is and have never picked him again. The two best wingers i've ever seen at Newcastle were completely ignored by their country during their stint here. Both were French, btw. You've just been owned. And you deserve it, coming out with such nonsense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I watched him last night, and he did seem to have improved as a player. Despite running into a few blind alleys, he looked far more composed. However, it did look like he was thriving in a free role where he was the star. A more disciplined role in a better side and a bigger club would be a different story - temperamentally as much as anything. And Ben Arfa looks a far more complete player. If we're talking about £10m plus, I'd rather look elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Brazilianbob Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Everyone is forgetting that there will be other clubs interested in him. It is not a given that we will get him in the summer. We may be outbid for him by the big clubs, and I certainly don't want to see the bulk of the £35m going on him! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may be outbid for him by the big clubs, and I certainly don't want to see the bulk of the £35m going on him! If one of the CL clubs come in, then we've no chance. But I don't think that'll happen. Zoggy isn't quite in that class. I also seriously doubt whether Dave Whelan will be able to bear relegation and then losing his best player to his hated rival. Never under estimate a rich man with a grudge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're talking about £10m plus, I'd rather look elsewhere. I thought Charlie was brilliant for a season or so for us but then you could tell for a long time he wasn't playing to his best and his improvement seem to have come to a halt. However for Wigan obviously he's said things off the pitch like he did for us, wants a move to a bigger club blah blah blah but for Wigan he's actually still putting the performances in on the pitch. I only manged to catch first half of game last night and Charlie was running the show from Wigan's point of view, left side right side, through the middle, seemed all over. I wouldn't be paying 10 million to have him back but i certainly would take him back for half of that if the opportunity came about. He's still an absolute cunt though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wanted to get away because he couldn't get a starting role in the midfield. We were playing him at left back or on the bench while Duff picked up 80k a week for running round in circles on the left wing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was desperate it was because he'd ran into a brick wall career wise here and JFK certainly put his nose out. We're a different team nowadays, he enjoyed life on Tyneside and with the exception of the the CL qualifiers we should be as well placed as any club regarding our bargaining power.
