Gallowgate Toon Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 The other thing that was noticeable in that first goal is as soon as Shelvey gets the ball, Sissoko makes a run in behind straight away. They obviously trust him to find them. Edit: the pass had a bit of disguise on it too, I thought. He sort of gave the eyes before popping it off.

Nobody Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Class through ball for Mitrovic in the second half as well. Would have liked to see Anita or Colback even attempting that one, they would have turned and played it back to Coloccini or some shite instead.

relámpago blanco Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Sort of makes sense that a central midfield that looks to contribute to attacks is better than one that does fuck all. Can't believe the shit we have had since Cabaye left. Can't wait for the time when Mclaren realises Colback is shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 omfg how fantastic was that move for the second goal! Think I need to go and watch it again. If we get one in three games like that, man, Ashley/Wonga/TransPennine traffic or not, I fear I may have to frequent SJH and the lesser venues our chaps bless with their presence.

Sell Colback and have more of a dribbler in there instead of a dribbley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

relámpago blanco Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Eyes are too small and dribble is too uniform also IMO. That dribble is photoshopped looking back tbf. Apologies.

Fair enough the Swansea fans are desperate for him to fail, he must have been a total cunt there because their disdain for him is us to Pardew levels. Not sure though how anyone else saw it as anything other than a slightly OTT shoulder barge as Valencia was running into him, and then Valencia rolling about the the floor clutching his face like a tart - he completely bought it. In fact I'm baffled why the conversation isn't for Valencia to be banned forever instead. It was clear as day what happened unless they've watched it on a 4-bit stream.

Lush Vlad Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I hate how the media try and act like judge, jury and executioner. Was it Ray Stubbs who was actively trying to get the FA to look at one of our players and ban him? I think it was Cabaye in the FA Cup. It was probably granted if it was the one I'm thinking of. But it was still pretty annoying the way they went on. This was absolutely fuck all. Calling it an elbow FFS. It's unnecessary and he needs to be a bit wiser. But you see worse go unpunished in most games and I'm sure there is a lot that goes on that the cameras and commentators don't even pick up on.

Hanshithispantz Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 From GC: "However there was also a real dark side to Shelvey's performance when he appeared to take West Ham's Enner Valencia out of the game, which suggests to me that Shelvey is prepared to do whatever it takes in order to win a football match. The only problem with tactics like that is they can win or lose you matches." :lol: Am I watching a different incident here or something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/georginio-wijnaldum-jonjo-shelvey-brings-10747690 Georginio Wijnaldum believes Jonjo Shelvey “brings football” to the Newcastle United side because he sees everything out on the pitch. The £12million January signing from Swansea City enjoyed an inspired Magpies debut at St James’ Park on Saturday, controlling the game and playing a key role in both Newcastle goals in a much-needed 2-1 victory over West Ham United. For Newcastle’s opener, Shelvey fed the ball into Wijnaldum on the edge of the box, and the Dutchman laid it off for Ayoze Perez to curl into the bottom corner from 18 yards. But his contribution for the second was even more impressive. Picking the ball up in his own half, Shelvey saw Daryl Janmaat making a run down the right-hand side and pinged an inch-perfect 60-yard cross-field ball to the full-back. Janmaat controlled it brilliantly, centred to Wijnaldum, who finished off a wonderful team goal. And Wijnaldum – who grabbed his ninth of the season on Saturday – believes Shelvey has already made a big difference to the Magpies side due to his vision and range of passing. “He brings football,” Wijnaldum replied when asked what he thought Shelvey added to the side. “What you can see in the first goal, the other players were really close but he still found me between the lines. “I just popped off the ball for Ayoze to shoot. “The second goal his pass to Daryl was magnificent. That is something that we need. “We can use a player like him. “We already know he is a good player because I played against him. “We are all happy he is here because he can bring more football to the team.” Not only does Wijnaldum believe Shelvey has added a new dimension to Newcastle’s play, the £14.5million summer signing also admits he finds it more enjoyable with the England international in the side. Shelvey’s arrival has also given the whole side a confidence boost too, insists the Dutch international. “Yeah it’s really enjoyable (playing with Shelvey)” the 25-year-old said. “You know he sees everything. You don’t even have to look behind you and he will find you. He gives confidence to the players and to me. “The first goal we made I stood there and expected him to find me and he did. I trusted him. I am happy with him.” Maybe we've signed Charles Xavier by mistake.

High Five o Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Not sure if Giggs, but good read http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11678/10134291/jonjo-shelvey-its-been-easy-to-fit-in-at-newcastle Jonjo Shelvey: It's been easy to fit in at Newcastle Jonjo Shelvey says fitting into the Newcastle side has been "easy" because of the spirit among the players at the club. The midfielder ended what he described as a "perfect" week on Tyneside with a priceless victory which breathed new life into the Magpies' Premier League survival bid. Saturday's 2-1 home win over West Ham, which came four days after a hard-fought 3-3 draw with Manchester United at St James' Park, lifted Newcastle out of the bottom three, for the time being at least, and created a new sense of optimism on Tyneside. That was in part due to the impact made by £12m debutant Shelvey, who injected fresh impetus into a team which had previously struggled going forward. The 23-year-old England international played a part in both his side's goals, and although he was later involved in an unseemly spat with Hammers striker Enner Valencia, it was a day to remember. "It's an easy place to come and play football, to be honest with you," Shelvey told nufcTV. "The fans are behind you, there are some tremendous players in that dressing room. "It normally takes a little bit of time for players to settle, but I felt right at home. The players were reading my passes very well and people were getting into position, so it was just easy. I thought it would be a lot harder than it has been this week, but it has been perfect. Jonjo Shelvey "The players were reading my passes very well and people were getting into position, so it was just easy. I thought it would be a lot harder than it has been this week, but it has been perfect. "It was a massive win. It's been a great week for the club - it was a great point against Manchester United and we have followed it up with a massive win against West Ham. "It was a perfect performance, I think, in the first half. We started really well, pressed the ball and they rarely played out from the back. We showed real intent and got our two early goals." It was Shelvey who paved the way for Ayoze Perez's sixth-minute opener when his pass was expertly laid off by Georginio Wijnaldum for the former Tenerife frontman to curl an inch-perfect shot past keeper Adrian's outstretched arm. But the raking cross-field ball from which full-back Daryl Janmaat set up Wijnaldum for his ninth goal of the season nine minutes later was even better and left head coach Steve McClaren purring. Shelvey said modestly: "It's quite an easy pass to make. Daryl makes those forward runs all the time - he's a very advanced full-back - and if he keeps making those runs, I'll always try to find him." Shelvey and Valencia came together off the ball seven minutes before the break with the striker going to ground, but McClaren later dismissed the clash as a bout of "handbags" and is expecting to hear no more about it.
