54 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Armstrong barely gets a start for Barnsley ffs Aye.. ridiculous for people wanting him to return. I've no idea why he's so highly rated with some of our fan base other than 'he's a geordie' Because he has a really good record with England under 21's, and scored 20 goals for a struggling Coventry side in League 1 last season, despite only being 18?

triggs Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Armstrong barely gets a start for Barnsley ffs Aye.. ridiculous for people wanting him to return. I've no idea why he's so highly rated with some of our fan base other than 'he's a geordie' Its nothing to do with being a Geordie. It is something to do with scoring 20 goals in League 1 as a teenager. Lots of people seem determined to write him off more than the other way around Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Sammy Ameobi was on our bench today and we've just had 3 more injuries Pretty obvious why people would be open to an Armstrong return like. Our only fit striker is nearly 34. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Armstrong barely gets a start for Barnsley ffs Aye.. ridiculous for people wanting him to return. I've no idea why he's so highly rated with some of our fan base other than 'he's a geordie' If we can't get another striker in then Armstrong returning to cover Murphy the next few games would be something we could try. Otherwise we're a Murphy injury away from having to play Ayoze or Gouffran up front. Also him scoring plenty last season means he's highly rated, nothing to do with him being a geordie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karjala Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Cant hurt to have Armstrong back like, would hope he'd do better in the top teams starting 11, than Barnsleys too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's not true is it. He scored 20 goals for a 'struggling' Coventry side who finished 8th. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Calls to recall Armstrong? Mitro fit by end of Jan Murphy playing and now scoring Gayle expected to be weeks not months? Then stuck with Armstrong playing 0 minutes at 4th choice and not developing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
