Newcastle Fan Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 He was actually quite good today, might be quite useful at this level, did not know he had such a shot in him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Had a canny game, I wouldn't sell him this season. The shot was immense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Still looks like a player out of position, and a yard too slow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Wish that screamer had gone in. Thought he was fine today, his best game for a number of years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 It's one of those where if we'd needed a goal late on everyone would've wanted him off the field and a real winger in his place. Great shot in the first half but he's bloody useless, man. Can't beat a man, no pace, can't cross. He gets the ball, scampers around and knocks it backwards and sideways. Need him replaced asap and fortunately Rafa knows it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 One of his better performances that I've seen in recent years, but that's not saying much. For how much we dominated at times, he felt like one of the least involved players. Great attempt off the crossbar though, tbf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Imagine if that shot went in Pancrate MkII tbh, except it would have taken Gouffran years to get to that point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Don't mind him in reserve but Knockaert looked far better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 You have to be as objective as you can, he played well and looks like he has more to offer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shush Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Wish that smash against the crossbar went in. Would have been great goal. For all our frustration of him over the years he looks like he will be useful this season as a squad player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Fine as a 3rd choice stand-in/filler but should be no more than that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Can't beat a man apart from when he beat his man before that cracker of a shot. Was unlucky with a first time volley too, probably had enough time to control it first. He had a good game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinho lad Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 He was actually quite good today, might be quite useful at this level, did not know he had such a shot in him. Well, YouTube his goal against Leeds in the LC few season ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPL Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Not seen a shot hit that hard against the beans on toast since Nobby vs San Siro. (Well looked quick on my stream) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Would've lost my shit if that had gone in. Desperately mediocre aside from it. Hopefully that's the end of him as a standard entity though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie_once_removed Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 He looked decent. He offered something in attack and helped prevent Dummet being exposed too much, for a good example of this watch what he does when they were pressing our back four around 25 minutes in. He showed positional intelligence when he dropped back to pick up a shoddy Dummet pass out of defense (he was moving to do this before Dummet passed) and did well to pass it quickly on to Hayden who played it forward nicely.
