Does Ryder know anything thats going on at Newcastle these days ? at least Alan Oliver had links into the club and was prepared to ask questions of people without been bothered about upsetting anyone, Ryder just comes across as thick.

Yes and no. Ryder tweets what the club tell him to tweet rather than having proper inside sources.

He's a good player, always found it a bit daft the amount of stick he got on here. There was a reason him, Sissoko and Townsend were sought after players when we decided to cash in. The transfer market tends to sift the wheat from the chaff despite what we might think.

When I watch him he rarely does anything special, he’s tidy enough. Same with Sissoko, he’s OK.

 

Ok let me tell you what I see. Wijnaldum offers movement across the whole midfield area, protects the ball well and can chip in with a few goals. Not a bad attribute - ask Shelvey and Ritchie.

 

Sissoko covers the whole pitch, offers pace and width, and will track back diligently.

 

Neither are fantastic players, but will do a job at the top level without looking hopelessly out of place. They would improve us quite a lot.

Oliver was a joke. He asked nothing of Hall and Shepherds running of the club. He was on NUFC payroll via his column in the programme.

Makes you laugh when you see him and Sissoko playing centre midfield every week for Liverpool and spurs.  But McLaren preferred Anita and Colback whilst leaving Thauvin to rot on the bench. 

 

£80 million well spent.  The Genius that is Mike Ashley and Lee Charnley.  Meanwhile give rafa fuck all

He does seem to play well for them when I see him but I will always despise him

 

Seems a nice lad. Just don't rate him much as a player.

 

Sissoko and Wijnaldum are good, functional players. Seem like good professionals and can lay a foundation for more talented players to shine. Having them as your main wide man and AM in a pap team - they will clearly struggle. Would've been interesting to see them play in the middle together.

 

Football is a team game. They are functional pieces of great sides. They're not great players. Still feel like if Liverpool need to rely on Wijnaldum in crunch moments, he will become invisible.

Realistically, Abeid shouldn't have been let go, You couldn't play an attacking, less defensively switched on player with Anita or Colback because they were both so anonymous that they had to run around trying to cover the other.

 

Sissoko-Wijnaldum wouldn't have worked, but Abeid with one of them might have.

 

 

Basically, McClaren was a fucking idiot and getting that squad relegated was criminal. Don't care that the players were cunts, it was his job to get them playing.

That's the point.  He played them wide or as a 10.  Totally out of position whilst Anita and Colback were out midfield generals

 

Not sure who else there was tbf to McClaren. Ultimately though we were in that mess and still in a mess because of one person and one person only.

Thauvin first half of the season.
