healthyaddiction Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 It's almost as if his 1 in, well, 1 season never happened. I suppose a full year is just form eh? Yes yes we all know Alan Pardew made him play s*** and fluff easy chances. Is the rest of his career just luck? He's not been that great in top flight football. Not as good as Torres or bent. Technically his goals to game ratio in the top flight is better than their's (based on a quick wiki). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as good as Torres or bent. 65 goals in 138 games, what am I missing here? 28 and had 1.5 good top flight seasons in his career. Why he played so few games in the top flight until the last few seasons I have no idea (late bloomer I suppose) but the fact is his goals to game ratio has been good to excellent since then and that ratio also follows to his international career. International - goal every 1.91 games 2009-2010 - goal every 2.66 games 2010-2011 - goal every 1.41 games 2011-2012 - goal every 1.4 games 2012-2013 - goal every 3.6 games So one bad season out of the last 4 as far as goals to games and at least 2 excellent seasons overall (you seem to be ignoring the first half of 2011-2012 before he came here with that 1.5 seasons comment). Which one looks the odd one out? Also as bad as his record was last season it was still better than Bent's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scored more than 1 goal in every 2 games in 2 of his last 3 seasons. Your 1.5 needs to be at least a 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Apparently he doesn't fancy moving to the Russian League. Interested to see where he ends up, can't see him going to Germany or over here. Think he'll end up going to Spain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roger Kint Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Wow.. Shame we didn't get him in Jan for around half that amount. Aye its a real shame ASSE had no interest in selling him for that much or in that window. Its also a shame we cant sign Messi for £15m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icemanblue Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 They were prepared to sell for less than half the figures being talked about now. The problem was that they'd just reached a final and he wanted to stay. Horrible luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 He has been described by insiders as “perfect” for Newcastle next season, with the club understood to want to move closer to the 4-3-3 formation which proved successful at the back end of the 2011-12 campaign. Hatem Ben Arfa, who was injured for large chunks of last season, has been earmarked for a major role and Aubameyang would slot into that system as well as any of Newcastle’s targets. Interadesting.

The problem was that they'd just reached a final and he wanted to stay. Horrible luck. Yep, not ideal price-wise but it's possible we might still get him if we've already been in contact and he doesn't have an offer from a top club yet. Still unlikely, but seems weird his agent is contacting us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 They said this in January after we bid. A club statement suggested that Newcastle were not the only side hunting Aubameyang's signature. It read: "Following the rumours that have appeared in the media linking Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang with a move to Newcastle, AS Saint-Etienne wish to make clear that the player, his agent and the club have collectively agreed to refuse all offers made thus far." Doesnt sound like a money issue at all really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I'm sure money wasn't the reason we didn't get him then, I just mean he will be more expensive now. Not that that really makes sense, since he was never available at the cheaper price anyway. Sigh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
