Altamullan Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 He doesn't even start him does he? Prefers Rondon because he's about 12ft. His goal tally last season was great for 21 year old. Tony Pulis (who is a more than decent manager) isn't playing Berahino because he's a disruptive git with a terrible attitude. The kid can be as talented as anyone, it doesn't matter though, it'll be the same as Ben Arfa. The first sign of it not going well, he'll be sulking and going on strike. No thanks. For that sort of money the club should stick a cheeky bid in for Vardy (am not assuming he'd want to come here, just that Leicester might listen to an offer of that size), quickest player in the league. Would be a perfect partner for Mitrovic. http://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/67/590x/Leicester-City-Leicester-Jamie-Vardy-Nigel-Pearson-Foxes-LCFC-581965.jpg Funniest suggestion I've seen in here in ages. Well done. Perhaps we should have a subtle brain washing campaign? A good start has been made by someone chucking a toon shirt over Vardy's fence...

Odear Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 There's nee debate, it's all history. The facts are in the stats, but the context depends entirely on how you feel about it. There's no argument to be won. I look back on HBA's time at the club with what if's. Parsnip takes a huge chunk of blame for that but the player isn't without some blame.

Hanshithispantz Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 This board has analysed his career here to death like, and it's pretty clear the problems were solely down to Pardew. There's absolutely no leeway here either, you either accept it and join the crowd or be forever thought of as a know-nowt, Pardew sympathiser. I'm not even joking, we're very precious about little Benny Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicane Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Don't think Berahino is anywhere near worth the amount we'll likely have to pay for him. Not my money and all that I know but I think there are better ways to spend ~£20m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpie1892 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Newcastle owner Mike Ashley put up £55m during the close-season No he didn't. Nor did 'he' spend £6m on Riviere (£1.8m), nor £12.5m on Cabella (£5.2m), etc., etc. Let's be generous and leave the TV money, all half-billion of it since Ashley oozed into town, and consider the £25m/yr advertising he's getting in lieu of the 'interest free' £130m he 'loaned' himself when he became owner. So on that basis alone, he's into us for about £100m, Sky and prize money excluded, which is pushing half-a-billion. #fuckingthievingfatcunt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odear Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Am not doubting that Berahino is a good player, my only reservations are about what sort of character he is. The club have already taken a risk with Shelvey (one that could well pay off) but if things don't go well we could end up with a couple of very expensive bad eggs, anyone old enough to remember Dyer and Bowyer's handbags will remember what a low point that was. However, everyone deserves their chance. If he does come here, he'll be given as much of a chance as the next player to prove things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that personnel Mitrovic would be dropped. We are playing well now partially because Wijnaldum is playaing further forward, we have to build on that, not stop it.
