HaydnNUFC Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Won us the game v Southampton (h) in December 2019 in spite of not scoring tbf. That and the knockdown to Miggy his only actual contributions since his return tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaningless goal v Leicester at home this season too. But those two the only contributions I remember though. Some return. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Linton Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Quite the achievement that his transfer has actually managed to turn out even worse than most anticipated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 It's the people who run fan YouTube channels and questionable notables on Twitter I feel sorry for. They seemed to love him. They'll be gutted. Us folk with half a brain realised it was a horrendous attempt at positive PR that thankfully fell flat on its knees into the sodden turf (figuratively - and literally in Andrew Thomas Carroll's case).

My main memory is the header that hit Dier's arm to give Newcastle a nonsense point against Spurs. I suppose that would be an assist as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 What an absolute car crash of a signing. Joelinton gets the stick because he cost £40m but we’ve wasted a squad place on this bloke who’s made a couple of million from us doing fuck all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Signing was a fucking insult tbh. I've nowt against the bloke himself and I'll always have extremely fond memories of 2009-2011, when he was turning into a monster of a striker, and I hope he manages to have a decent rest of his career somewhere where his physical limitations aren't laid to bare so starkly. But it was a pisstake of a signing; as disingenuous as the man who brought him here. Done just to appease, poorly masked as some great homecoming that the Geordies would love, along with their new Geordie manager. Just proper bullshit.

Pons Alias Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 The bloke was bang average here, was sold on the back of a very decent half season and never ever recaptured that form. David Kelly was a much better striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Kelly was a good second tier striker. He only ever scored 6 goals in the top flight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 He was a poor mans Duncan Ferguson. Ridiculous money spent on him over his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Should never have left to join Liverpool. Was genuinely gutted when he did and with hindsight he'd have had such a better playing career staying here. Was a quality player then and caused problems for just about every defender we played against. Weird that for a player that never relied on pace and just had pure strength and aerial power his career went downhill so fast. Unfortunately that was all the injury problems though and not his own game style. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Thing is although he wasn't rapid he wasn't glacial, like some forwards with his height and general physique. He could get past a defender, or could at least nip in ahead with a crucial touch. His close control was pretty good too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Going from his Instagram he has a big family so I imagine he’s been clever enough to set himself and family up for life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
