Newcastle Fan Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Not sure how good he is at the back still but he's a far better striker than Joelinton Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
quayside Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Not sure how good he is at the back still but he's a far better striker than Joelinton On the evidence so far Ciaran Clark is also a better striker than Joelinton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 When he's fully fit, think he's our best defender to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 When he's fully fit, think he's our best defender to be honest. He is, but he had a horrible xmas period. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 He looked good in first match but shouldn’t have been playing so many in a row. He was knackered against Leicester and probably played the worst match of his career. But when he’s on, he does look a top player. Read and listened a bunch to the analysis of him and all of it is about his football brain and ability on and off the ball. That while Schar pings balls about with ease, Lejeune is actually the true best on the ball and of it with reading of game etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I've always had Flo down as our best centre half. Schar close second. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odear Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Schär can get rattled and loses his cool quite easily. Which sometimes it’s good to see the players ready to put up a fight, but not stupid yellow cards. Lejeune is calm and makes the right decision more often than not. He was thrown into the team too quick after his injury. But when he’s up to speed he’s one of our best players. Lascelles, Clark, Schär and Lejeune have all seemed to have gotten used to each other too. It’s good that different combinations at the back can work, as this wasn’t the case last season at times.

Kanj Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Feel like some matches you need the passing of 1 or both of Schar and Lejeune and sometimes (like the case of the Chelsea home match) having 3 of our no-nonsense defenders (which is a little harsh on Fede who is completely underrated on the ball) playing.

sugoinufc Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 its all good a the back : fernandez, lascelles, clark, schär and flo are all good. Schär and Flo are just a bit out of form atm because of injuries recently. Nothing to worry about imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Schar looked on it when he came on like. Looking for the ball all the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Schar & Lejeune would probably be our best CM pairing at the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Says something about Schar that he comes on as a sub at Everton and just starts pinging the ball all over the pitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I still love the aftermath of that equaliser at Everton where everyone runs towards the fans and it’s the goalscorer who’s the one chasing everyone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Big fan of Flo. Hopefully he can have a good season with Alaves without getting injured. Bruce getting rid of our ball playing centre backs I see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 He's yet to play well at all really since the last one and we were carrying too many defenders for 4 at the back really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

samptime29 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 He might be totally finished or this move might be really good for him, and we get him back next season in good form. If we're playing 4 at the back this season, there is a logic to the loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
