matta Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 He will be remembered as possibly the wankest striker in recent memory to have worn our shirt. Michael Bridges was pretty shit aswell! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki679 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 A nothing player who left no impression short of a vague 'oh, forgot about him, he was shit too' in years to come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I mentioned when he first signed that he will be forgotten pretty quickly after his spell is over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Absolute shite. His biggest contribution was proving Cisse's value in the overall scheme of things. That's not saying much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Struggling to recall anything he actually did. Each appearance was instantly forgettable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFC_Chris Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Hull away was the highlight. Could've had a couple that day. Just a shame we didn't see more of him partnered with Remy as on paper that was quite tasty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 A very unspectacular loan spell, it has to be said. Just wasn't meant to be (though being managed by Pardew couldn't have helped matters). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
indi Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Remember getting some shit for this at the time, but that's exactly what happened. I know it's seriously early days, but De Jong looks like a bit of a dud, that first big chance he had where he was clean through and inexplicably turned and ran straight into a load of their players was seriously depressing. I guess he's low on confidence given what's happened following his last move, but it doesn't look like coming to us has snapped him out of it like often happens, reckon he'll have a disappointing time for us and we'll end up not signing him in the summer. That's just a gut feeling, hope it's wrong. It's really depressing when you get a feeling like that and you just know that things are going to turn out badly, guess we've all had too many of them for far too long really.

Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Never going to look at his best in a Pardew team with no confidence, discipline or attacking intent, however you would at least expect to see some flashes of a good player if he indeed was one, and barring a 10 minute spell on his debut he showed absolutely nothing. Sometimes the loan system is a handy tool, imagine if we had shelled out 8 million for him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Not saying he's an ace striker but totally losing his confidence must be a big factor like. Especially when he has to play a different role in a team in freefall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I'd still take him on a season long loan if it didn't stop us signing someone better. We aren't going to sign all the strikers we need and I really do think there is some quality in there. We were pretty much safe when he signed, if we wanted a proper look at the lad he should have started every game he was fit for rather than playing Cisse or Shola.

We were pretty much safe when he signed, if we wanted a proper look at the lad he should have started every game he was fit for rather than playing Cisse or Shola. But it was clear he was rubbish from early on. I'd have preferred to have played Papiss more because if we're going to persevere with an out of form player to try and get his confidence back, then I'd prefer it's one we own and not one that could have rediscovered his form and promptly fucked off somewhere else.

mrmojorisin75 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 i didn't see a lot of the lad but writing him off from playing in that team from january would be very harsh indeed iyam Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for Dummet....... we should wait until he plays under a different manager before writing him off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
