I'll not be bothered if he stays, I think he has the makings of a good player.

The outlook changes dependant on who is managing but I agree. The goal return alone will be enough to see us regain the majority of the money we spent buying him. His reputation will still be intact outside our club.

Can't believe people actually gave him a standing ovation. He's barely looked bother for the last 6 months, puts in one half decent performance and all of a sudden he is getting away without any flak. He is one of the worst culprits in our side in my opinion.

He won't stay, but it would do him the world of good if he does, be forced by the club or lack of interest. Players like him need to be shown that you can't just turn it on when you need too. Playing in the Championship and having to work to get us back or up or to get a club interested will show that you need to produce consistent try and that you only reap the rewards with hard work.

 

There is a good player in there, he needs to work on his attitude to bring it out.

Feel like Andros was more likely to have just been giving advice on how Lloris handles penalties tbh.

 

I guess. I mouth read please, please :lol:

 

Tbf that is probably just as likely as how I read it :lol:

11 goals this season, I know he disappeared for a large chuck of the season but if some others had put in that many goals with the half efforts they put in, then we probably would have been fine. I think the frustration with him was the fact we knew he could play better (especially away from home) than we were seeing, some others however simply didn't have that level of ability.

While its still the same frustrating result, especially given our plight, players disappearing in games isn't always disinterest imo. Somtimes they are just players looking either out of their depth (Williamson, Colback) or struggling to adapt to the league, I think there is a difference in how I see those types of players than the ones strutting around disinterested and smiling like a goon when we are 3 down like Ameobi used to. While Colback and Willow had shockers over the past year or so and before the latter was sold, I ultimately can't blame those types of players for being here, its our scouts, coaches and management that brought them here and still play them each week.

 

I maybe err too much on the soft side of thinking Wijnaldum was more struggling to adapt to the premier league in addition to the horrific club situation around him. He has also had to play a multitude of different positions. Had the rest of the team played well and we finished mid table I think there would be a lot more hope and patience in keeping him given his goal return and flashes of talent. I still don't think its a good enough excuse given he has shown he can turn it out. He has had some shockers.

 

As it is, I'd be more than happy if he was here next year to give him a chance, I think with a year under his belt and (hopefully) a positive camp and coaching staff around there should be no arguments about adapting and he would flourish. That said I also won't shed a ton of tears if we get good money and he leaves, the latter seems inevitable.

Think I dislike this lad the most in our team. Tough choice between him, Cisse, Taylor, Janmaat and Colo.

 

Same, but my hatred/dislike is purely because he's clearly a talented footballer that only gets involved whenever he wants too. He's basically what everyone said about Ben Arfa just not as talented as Benny obviously. He's lazy, and goes hiding whenever he feels like it. As a professional that is unacceptable.

It's not anger, it's disappointment that I feel. He should have been better and is probably capable of it. The fact that he doesn't come across a cunt immediately puts him way behind the likes of Owen and Cisse in the biggest cunt stakes for me.

Well he'll be off now. 11 goals from midfield in a poorly performing team (understatement of the season award nomination anyone?) is what the records (the CV his agent is touting)  will say. I was so pleased and optimistic to see him sign for us. Felt like a huge statement of intent. And I have enjoyed seeing him in a Newcastle shirt (even current shamefully sponsored one). Just wish he'd filled that shirt more often. What talent. What a disappointment. If he had the integrity I thought he brought, he'd stay and make good.

11 goals and he spend a large chunk of the season hiding and not trying. 

 

Imagine if his attitude didn't stink?!  Could have got 15-20 goals FFS. 

 

11 goals from a midfielder is pretty good like. If he was hiding, how was he getting on the end of those chances? I think it's more a case of him not really relishing the dogfight nature of English football. But the way Rafa sets the team up he wouldn't necessarily need to do as much of that.

Well he had a long spell, from the Man U game to round about now.  Where he was dogging it off, not getting involved in play and where he just generally looked to be sulking. 

 

He had 9 goals coming into 2016, didn't he?  Then he went AWOL.

"I'm devastated my goals didn't keep us up". Cheeky fucker!

 

His cowardly performances, especially away from home, easily cost us at least 2 points which makes him the player who relegated us.
