Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Might have been asked but is that the two teams from the biggest one club cities? (Not sure if that makes sense) (Not sure if Sunderland is technically bigger) West Yorkshire leviathon that would be Leeds - Bradford according to wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_in_the_United_Kingdom#England) Bradford's not a city. It's a fucking mire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Can't believe how bad Leeds were. They looked very limited for a decent Championship side. They're away to Millwall on Saturday to be fair to them. I'm not that convinced they cared too much. Varney wasn't even on the bench was he? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Solid result, brings the mood after up after Saturday's rubbish. Happy for Gouff too, I love his attitude. sure I read somewhere that the french thought he'd be throwing a strop if not getting games etc. I wouldn't blame him. Fairly good scoring record but still 2nd string. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 A good positive from tonight is that it is clear Remy, Ben Arfa, Marv, and Gouffran are all ahead of Obertan, and Jonas just mustn't be anywhere near the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I'm proper baffled here like, the only time Obertan got a decent run in the side was in Europe, when Marveaux was also playing, Ben Arfa was injured, Gouffran was cup tied, and Remy was in France. Discounting all of that though, the question still remains "how did this game make it clear that Remy, Ben Arfa, Marv, and Gouffran are all ahead of Obertan", when Ben Arfa and Remy stayed on the bench, and Obertan actually made an appearance? Is this a wind up, because it's a good one if so Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andybiotics Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Just saw the goals, and Gouff's was an absolute beaut Happy it seemed so straight forward, with no real scares. Hopefully gives us a bit of momentum to go and attack Everton on Monday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Can't believe how bad Leeds were. They looked very limited for a decent Championship side. Are they a decent Championship side? Their results have been fairly mediocre as far as I know. They were quite tidy on the ball and organised at the back. A couple of decent efforts but there was a visible gap in class to ourselves, as you'd expect. Difficult to gauge the Championship but I don't think they look top 3 material yet but could have a chance of the play-offs if they can add goals to their organisation. It was a decent game and great atmosphere. Really pleasing to see such a top quality goal which was "made in Newcastle" with two of our academy products looking like they have the potential to be very good players.

Oakie Doke Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Just because Obertan was largely ineffective last season doesn't detract from the fact he started every game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillClinton Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Doubt anyone here has seen enough of him to rate him properly yet. Needs a couple starts in the league and than we can see what we have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHoob Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Yeah it's far too early to say for sure but he did play some lovely balls through, the one setting up the Sammy cross for Cisse's goal was inch perfect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Am I the only one who doesn't rate Dummet. Think he'd be alright at championship level, but some of his touches and his ability on the ball is not enough for me Was a nice bend on the ball to take it past the Leeds player when he sent Sammy on his tbf! Other than that. Hope he keeps improving. Looks like he's at a stage when he might look like a decent Championship player and we wait and see if he can turn into a decent Prem player. Never going to be an absolute top quality FB, like. But there's plenty of players in the Prem who aren't either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillClinton Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 It would be funny if he did stick around though. He was the least 'hyped' from this batch of youth team players, but it seems he has put in the extra work and got himself noticed. (probably not a coincidence that he spent a good amount of time on loan too) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 He hasn't made any monumental fuck ups leading to goals/chances so far which is a good thing RE: our FBs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
