r0cafella Posted December 31, 2024 Share Posted December 31, 2024 He did a really valuable job defensively yesterday, obviously he has his limitations but upgrading him won't be so easy because his commitment is second to none. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingxlnc Posted December 31, 2024 Share Posted December 31, 2024 Is a flat track bully, will do well against bottom 6 contenders but struggles otherwise Is very good for depth but should not be starting RW - definitely need an upgrade this window Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted December 31, 2024 Share Posted December 31, 2024 18 hours ago, Newcastle Fan said: Absolutely terrible today on the ball, don't think he's done anything right but did a very good job tracking back and defending when needed. I said in the match thread at half time that his main contribution seemed to be as a body on the pitch. Personally think he's had his purple patch and has dropped off in the last couple of games, but despite his football being a bit clumsy at times, he can still strike a ball really well. Not the worst option to have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’ll be the kind of profile Eddie and the team will look for, hardworking but has the quality in the final third a la Gordon. Might take time to identify such a player that is available which is why it might not happen in January? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteV Posted Saturday at 22:47 Share Posted Saturday at 22:47 Absolute bollocks he doesn’t get that assist like. Who was he passing it to? Isak. Who did it go to? Isak. Surely irrelevant that the defender got a tiny touch on it first. Like putting every slightly deflected shot down as an OG. I understand (to a point) instances like the Isak worldy ‘non-assist’ at Everton, cos he was probably passing that to Wilson and it ended up with Murphy. But if it goes to the player you’re passing it to… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We started to struggle defensively once Murphy tired. Given this you can really see why we haven't replaced him as quickly as some might like. Sure we can find someone with more quality but can the output be matched? Particularly defensively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
