Ryan_Taylor Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Wasn't Amalfitano always one for the future? As was the younger Bigi. He's getting games though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Wasn't Amalfitano always one for the future? He's not a kid like. I think he's about 22 so if he was good enough he'd be at least getting some EL time. Clearly he showed some life in preseason but he has taken some time to adjust. Bigi, though younger and getting games now, came from the Championship. Romain, older, had 2 seasons in Ligue 2 in France. The step-up obviously has taken some time, maybe longer/shorter than some thought. Hopefully he'll continue to work hard and we'll see him in the EL and eventually the PL with some time.

Yorkie Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Wasn't Amalfitano always one for the future? He's not a kid like. I think he's about 22 so if he was good enough he'd be at least getting some EL time. Elliot said that he doesn't speak a word of English so that might have something to do with it. Bedding-in time, etc. Santon hardly played when he first joined. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Wasn't Amalfitano always one for the future? He's not a kid like. I think he's about 22 so if he was good enough he'd be at least getting some EL time. the line from the club and french journos was that it would take him at least a season to be ready to fight for a place in the first team squad.

Newcastle Fan Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 The Marveaux situation is a bit odd, we need players like him in the team and were struggling to create much lately. hopefully he'll be back and we'll get to see him tearing defenses apart.

TRC Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I'd like him to start in Brugge to see if he can make an impact on the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I really like the look of him, still nowhere near a 100% imo but makes it such a difference having a player that can play with the ball at his feet and more importantly can cross rather than Jonas.

ExiledGeordie Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Very rusty but I suppose its to be expected. Clearly has the technical skills just needs the consistency to get to the level he was at before he got injured last time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Terrible first half, approaching good second half. He wasn't terrible in the first half, he should have scored when he totally missed the ball but other than that he did nothing wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 This season he has looked way off the pace. The glimpses of last season encouraged me more. Needs time and games, not sure he will get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's virtually missed two of the last 3 seasons through injury, he's going to need time to get up to speed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
