Adam Armstrong

Aye. A proper beast of a centre-forward :thup: He and Keith Houchen were fantastic during their 87 cup run.

Dave Bennett was the catalyst behind that Cup season. Should've received a call from Bobby that year.

 

Remains the last final won by a team wearing stripes iirc.

Were Wigan not still in stripes when they won? Honestly cannot remember [emoji38]

Looking at those highlights he looks a lot stronger: his finishing (and movement) yet again is outstanding

 

He's definitely an all out number 9 for me:

One thing I've noticed from every goal I've watched of his so far is that he's scored none of then from chasing an aimless 60 yard punt upfield from a shite CB. Imagine that John Carver, imagine that.

Dave Bennett was a good winger in his day. :thup: Brother of Gary, from the mackems.

I was with the Cov fans when Gary Bennett and David Speedie were fighting at Joker Park. Speedie landed not ten yards from me.

 

Well, Speedie was and is a fucking cunt. Hate the little bastard.

Cracking player though. One of the best players in the air I've seen. 5-7" but regularly outjumped six footers.

Get him back now!

 

Natural goalscorer and can see him pairing up nicely with Mitro and getting the goals we need.

Someone actually suggesting we drop Perez [emoji38]

Play the three of them

Yep

Play the three of them in which formation and drop who?

 

Leave the lad where he is for the rest of the season.

Would be silly to interrupt Armstrong's good season and Perez/Mitrovic partnership IMO, leave them all be.

 

The best thing for Newcastle United and Adam Armstrong is that he doesn't play a first team game for this club for at least the rest of this season and the following season. Finish as the L2 top scorer this season, that will be his goal. Following season, get him at a Championship club like Middlesbrough so it's not too far from home and see how he does.

 

We've ruined a fair few young players by mishandling their development and chucking them in too early, killing their confidence. He needs to build his confidence to be able to take his chances and not always worry about shooting or passing when he comes back to compete for a starting place.
