Mick Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 His early form for us would have come in handy over the next few weeks, pity we seem to have set him back as a player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incognito Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Remember when Pardew started him at RM against Benfica? Aye...it was all part of Pardew's lull them into a false sense of security for 70 minutes tactic and then attack for 20. It was a genius masterplan for two reasons. 1) When the 70 minutes mark came, Benfica would be completely surprised but be too tired to do anything about it and 2) We would conserve energy for the next league game despite it being an unimportant one against whomever. Simple but fucking ingenious. It's the reason why manager of the year accolades were bestowed upon him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I was thinking earlier, love how this lad has been completely out in the cold since getting hauled off at half time against Benfica. Didn't even make the bench for the rest of that season and one appearance against Morecambe this year. Management. Bet he's delighted he sacrificed regular football to come here. Suppose at least he gets to work with Premier League coaches. Stop laughing at the back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Made 25 appearances last season. Now we're without Perch, Gutierrez, Cabaye & Vuckic (and Marveaux more or less) in the same positon it would make complete sense he's vanished into oblivion. Naturally he's not a Dan Gosling who has it all (but a deal for next year) but still. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 NUFC - career graveyard. Say that to Carroll and Cabaye Carroll would have gone the same way were it not for 'the luck' of us being relegated. Cabaye was on an upwards trajectory regardless of what club he went to.

Ketsbaia Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Bigi's problem is that he played quite well, which was naughty. No wonder Pardew hates him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Much rather Bigi played than Dan "no discernible talent and leaving next month" Gosling. Gosling's fully earned his place in the side by not being shit on the right wing against Benfica a year ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Bigi's problem is that he played quite well, which was naughty. No wonder Pardew hates him. 2-0 up but still ventured forward to look for the 3rd. Worst thing he could have ever done. Daft lad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 "But since bursting onto the scene he has gone backwards. The last time I spoke to someone with influence at Newcastle they suggested it might never happen for him at the club, despite the obvious talent he had. When asked why, there was no real explanation." DAT COACHING Forgot about that. Christ. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
