Thank you for your messages! The win was for you! Xx

Him and Mapou both seem intent on being successful here. I've really taken to them.

[Gallowgate Toon]

Was great today, unbelievable that he was taken off. Provides an interesting option for 4-4-2, his pace and movement is a great outlet.

[Ketsbaia]

I proper love Gouffran, like.

I wouldn't say unbelievable. It happens every game. What would have been unbelievable is him playing the entire 90 and Jonas being subbed.

[Barnes23]

Not his biggest fan, but looked very good today and certainly didn't deserve to be taken off.

[Jordan]

most threatening attacking player and gets taken off.

[Gallowgate Toon]

Good foil for Cabaye as well, they showed some nice link up in the first.

[Kanji]

I proper love Gouffran, like.

 

Same - absolutely love him, he puts in a fucking shift every single time he's out there.

[Ronaldo]

Tidy, tenacious, very quick and a decent finisher. Not too much else but those attributes alone make him pretty special in our squad. I like him a lot.

[Beren]

Good decision-maker too.

[Ryan]

Lovely first time cross in the first half as well which rolled along the 6 yard line, Cisse should have been there.

[TRon]

He thinks much quicker than the average player. In a side with more movement I think you'd really see him shine.

My favourite so far of the 5 January imports. He may be the least gifted of the five but he works so hard, has good pace and seems like a total team player, truly delighted to be at NUFC. He has talent, his pace, directness and movement are all proving to be useful to us and next season I can see him being on the fringes of the first team, grabbing a useful amount of goals and willing to play anywhere in the top three. Love him. Like our own Dirk Kuyt, but quicker and better looking.

Easily done when you know you're going to be subbed with at least 20 minutes left of every game, irrespective of how you're playing.

He has played 15 Games for Newcastle United with 14 Starts and 3 Goals but he has been substituted in each one of his starts.

[Yorkie]

I really like how he runs the channels. If we're persisting with the 4-2-3-1, I'd like to see him start more centrally with license to drift from wing to wing. I'd also like to see him get 90 minutes now and again.

 

It's frustrating, we've got the players capable of enforcing a very fluid attacking system.

[Haz]

One of the few that looks for and is comfortable with, the ball.

[Guest reefatoon]

Well it doesn't look like this lad will get 90 mins under his belt any time soon.

[SEMTEX]

Well, aye. The season is over mate.

[Guest reefatoon]

Well, aye. The season is over mate.

Happy birthday you sexy thing

[Tiresias]

Thanks for keeping us up! Happy Birthday

[Al Moody]

Playing a game of fifa with NUFC this morning and scored a goal with Gouffran - the commentary pipes up with ''and that's a goal on his birthday''. Blew my mind.

[TherealnorthernTOON]

Understand the substitution of Gouffran. When he works he works at 100% top speed, and he does that alot. Offcourse thats tireing, and when he's been left on after around that 70-75 min mark you can see it has taken it's toll on him. Absolute love him as a player though and has been a huge asset and something we've definitely lacked before he came. That one person pulling the defence left, right and backwards creating alot of space, sorrowly we aren't exactly using it properly yet.

 

When he first came here I actually thought he was too withdrawn with the ball at his feet and seldom looked to dribble and try to take a player on, but it has improved once he settled more in the squad and he really seem to show his skills more and more.
