When will people learn? Not if the protests/boycotts continue. And as to whether relegation would increase the possibility of Ashley selling up, I'd say that's open for debate.

colinmk Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Well done Bigi. Has the balls to come and say that when hardly anyone other pro connected to the club would dare. Respect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I understand the argument but I'm not convinced that relegation makes a sale more likely. So based on that I'd rather keep watching the PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I think if we go down it decreases the likely hood of him selling as he would not want to loose money.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might realise he won't get it back and can't keep us in the top division without spending money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Is he still our player? We could have done with a central midfielder with all the injuries at the moment. But then we could have done with Mbiwa and Santon right now as well. But at least we've saved some money on wages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Not sure if I agree with the sentiment or not. A single relegation probably wouldn't do shit for us. However, thank fuck someone has the balls to say something. Although I guess it's easy when you've been forcibly MIA for 2 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 He should never have been dropped, he was better than Tiote when he was dropped. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
U2 Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Said in an NUTV interview that the club didn't have a philosophy of how to deal with young players under Pardew. Also that he was put into the reserves to make way for more senior players a couple of years ago due to poor results in the prior season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 This is a player who really would benefit from an extended loan spell. It's difficult to give an inexperienced player the responsibility of the anchor role in midfield, in the Premiership, and partnering him with Tiote didn't give him much of a chance. I saw him play in a reserve game and he was head and shoulders above everyone else. He needs that intermediate level between that and a Premiership first team to develop further. Admittedly it's a while since I saw him, but I'd be surprised if he was ready for the step up right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 He's still only 21/22 right? Plenty of time, get him loaned out for the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 He's probably going to be fucking shit now tbh, we're talking 2 seasons in which he's been badly mismanaged at a vital time for his development. Another infuriating Pardew legacy as he looked like he had it all when he first emerged. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Can't see how he'll be just ruined like, as long as he's looked after himself while not playing games and good attitude is right he can recover. People have come back from serious injuries at that age, he can get over a little Pardewing I'm sure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have come back from serious injuries at that age, he can get over a little Pardewing I'm sure It's possible but I'd be very surprised. He's gone from impressing in our first team to going missing for 2 years, it's not often a Premier League youngster starts so well, has such a downward trajectory and comes back into the fold. I find it infuriating like as I really rated him when he featured for us, he was composed beyond his years. What were those quotes a year or so back from a member of the coaching staff saying they'd basically given up on him or something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
