Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Disgusting We owe him nothing. Our manager doesn’t trust him, so he doesn’t play. Happy to trust Shelvey though who has the same mental flaws and has been sub par all season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're all assuming, ultimately we know fuck all, I can only go by what I see on the pitch and that's others under performing week in week and and keeping their place while others don't get half of that chance.

Away Day Gadgie Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Aye i get the feeling that Mitrovic is one of these who'll stand for 10 minutes getting instructions off Benitez nodding his head and seeming like he's taking it all in, then goes out and does the complete opposite on matchday. Anyone who's managed a football team or played in 1 will know players who do that and it's annoying as f***. Especially for someone like Benitez who likes players to stick to the plan. I reckon he lost patience with him a long time ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duo Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 The lad has not been given a chance to fair - I can't remember the last time he played two games back to back. Ok his disciplinary record isn't great but Shelveys' has been worse this season and he still gets a chance in the team. To play Joselu ahead of him would be pretty soul destroying for the lad especially considering how poor Joselu has been in front of goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Hopefully NUFC get taken over and we can buy better players so our fans no longer have to idolise shit players.

If the clowns on here who rate Mitrovic had seen the Cole,Ferdinand,Shearer,Asprilla years they would explode Mitrovic isn't even on the same playing field as Andreas Andersson. Im sick to death of reading posts on here about people idolizing and praising absolutely shit players...Perez and Mitrovic being the classic 2...These 2 absolute wasters weren't even as good as the likes of Malcolm Allen or Alex Mathie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 He's no worse than Andy Carrol This is an outrageous comment. AC was on a completely different level to this chump... Mitro has similar stats to the current AC. Andy did have a remarkable 6 months with us before he was sold admittedly. However, Dean Holdsworth once had a good season as well. People would be riving the heed off it if they thought Andy was coming back while in reality we have something very similar not even warming the bench.

Altamullan Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 This might sound daft, but that doesn’t usually stop me... . There was an earlier post spectulating that he may be one of those players who doesn’t do what they’re told; this rings true for me. I also suspect that on the stats/technique in training he probably looks worse than, for instance Joselu. Both are likely to be red flags for Rafa. No judgement, either way, that is just not how he sees the game/his team playing. However, some players have a more intuitive approach and what they lack in technique they make up for in being a right nuisance to the opposition and when their confidence is high they can be very effective. To be fair, whatever he brings it hasn’t done him much harm to date. He’s forged a good career for himself and looks good as an international striker. It is clear Rafa and his team don’t value him, and that is not doing him or us any good. I will be one of the people to wish him well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
