Based on his goal record alone, I'm surprised we'd didn't hear more about other clubs coming in for him during the summer.

 

 

 

I think he needs a few more goals like the one he scored against West Ham. It was a cool finish, and until we see more of the same, his reputation will remain more about being a radgie than a feared striker.

Yeah, it was nothing like Arnautovic.

 

I do think Mitro would be much better with a stable run of games, but that goes for nearly every player, especially strikers. Question is can we give him that? Joselu showed a lot more in the few minutes he has played so far.

 

To be fair to mitro, he's shown similar, in bursts, during his time here. He hasn't hit any real consistency, but he's had a lot of pressure on young shoulders.

 

His finish against WHam, was great. Even better since just before he was an almost identical situation, and lost out to Hart. He showed the composure, and dare I say intelligence, to do something different. That goal could have been the moment his career took off. Enter Phil fucking Neville. PHIL FUCKING NEVILLE?? A man so devoid of any personality, he makes Alan Shearer seem like a shining wit. Aye well Phil Neville is nothing more than a spoonerism of Alan Shearer.

 

I reckon if Rafa has given him 4 months to save his NUFC career, he'll have to give him the opportunity to do so. I'm not too confident he will though.

Mitro is nervous so he goes and needlessly elbows someone when NUFC are 2 - 0 up and cruising.

 

You sound like people who try to make excuses for a dog that's bit someone - "He was excited".

 

No. Mitro is putting too much pressure on himself to deliver.

 

And Mitro's is f*** all like Arnautovich's, like. Arno goes in with the point of his elbow, Mitro pretty much slaps him with his bingowing.

 

Anybody who thinks differently should be permanently banned from Jury Duty, because that s*** matters.

 

:lol: Get the fuck outta here.

Didn't he get a fairly long stretch in the team last season and was gash?

 

Show me one player who hasn't had a bad patch at some point in their career. I'm sure Shearer had a shite season once. Not comparing the two just highlighting the mootness of your point.

 

I'm willing to bet that by the time he's 27 you're the only one talking about it.

 

He's currently playing in a system that doesn't suit his attributes, for a manager who seems unwilling to adapt to a system that will exploit these attributes. Previously he has been picked specifically for those attributes. He is having to adapt. He is still young enough that he might do that.

 

His goal against WHam was a sign of a footballer thinking about his game. It also demonstrated a confidence that was previously shackled by responsibility.

 

As if anybody on here, at 22, wasn't a proper radgie on a Saturday night at least once or twice.

I wasn't actually. I was as suave, sophisticated and sexy as I am now. So there goes your theory pal.

Serbia boss Slavoljub Muslin says Aleksandar Mitrovic feels more appreciated playing for his country than he does under Rafa Benitez at Newcastle.

The striker is first choice for Serbia and is top scorer in Group D with six goals. Indeed, only Cristiano Ronaldo, Robert Lewandowski and Romelu Lukaku have netted more than Mitrovic in World Cup qualifying.

 

The 22-year-old will lead the line against Republic of Ireland in Dublin on Tuesday night but it will be his last outing of September, for he is suspended for Newcastle’s next three matches following an elbow on West Ham’s Manuel Lanzini last month.

Such indiscipline is part of the reason Benitez does not trust Mitrovic and he was willing to sell the £13million forward during the summer had he found a suitable replacement.

 

Muslin, however, believes Newcastle are not getting the best out of the former Anderlecht man.

‘Maybe the system we play with three attackers suits him better,’ said the Serbia manager.

‘Perhaps the coach in Newcastle doesn’t have as much confidence in him as I do. He is our first centre forward. Perhaps he feels more comfortable playing for the national team than he does for his own club.’

It's not hard to feel more confident when you're playing against the likes of Malta, San Marino, Lithuania, Luxembourg etc. :lol:

 

Well... 2 goals vs Wales ( mostly PL team ), 2 goals vs Austria (mostly Bundesliga team).

 

The other 2 were against Moldova and Georgia.

Let's see if he maintains his goal scoring run over the next 3 games for NUFC. Oh he can't as he got himself banned again. I hope his replacements do well. Mitro would only have himself to blame for dropping down the order.

 

I don't think that Mitro blames anyone except him. And your comment is probably confirming what Serbia's boss saying. No support, just slamming players all the time.
