Optimistic Nut Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 He was s*** but the penalty decision went against him. To be fair, he’s not the only fullback to struggle to cope with Sterling’s pace/quick feet. Unlucky with the pen for me. Yep. If anything that incident showed he's clearly taking things on board because he only had eyes for the run of Sterling in the one-two. He didn't get attracted to the ball, or ball watch, when Sterling made the first pass you could see in the replay that the first thing he did was see where Sterling was going and followed him. He wasn't caught flat footed or anything. Not his fault Sterling is rapid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackyboy Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Didn't help him that he fell just before Sterling fell, made it look like there was more contact than there was I thought that too. Seemed to me he did everything right the way he turned to stay with the player but he was just unlucky Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I just want to say that one of the most difficult things i had to do as a Newcastle fan is watch this guy play in the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely Content Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 We should have started buying ex-Sunderland full back loanees when Marcus Alonso was on the scene. Brendan Galloway next. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Struggling to see the point of his signing to be honest. Not convinced he's even better than Gamez. And he certainly didn't deserve to replace Mbemba. Just really weird and not needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 We were ripped off at £4.5 million if that's what we paid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 The Gamez signing is equally questionable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddy Chibas Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Has the positional awareness, and the danger factor to match (in football terms), of a zonked-out air traffic controller under the influence of heroin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sho Time Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Weak as piss and generally just piss-poor at anything and everything. Would rather Gamez in there ahead of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odear Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Had to go back several pages to find this thread, such is the lack of interest in this chap. Looking like he’ll be playing at RB for much of the season if Yedlin is proper fucked. By my count he started 19 games for us last season (+2 as sub) Of those 19: Win - 4 games Loss - 13 games Draw - 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sho Time Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Tbh I don't think there's all that much difference defensively between him and Yedlin, they're both average at best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 He's fucking rubbish, not at all shocked we're already relying on him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinitely Content Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I don't have much faith in Manquillo's ability, but willing to air on the side of optimism and hope he has improved with a year in & around the team under Benitez & his staff.

ohmelads Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Yedlin's average but class in comparison to Manquillo. Teams will target him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 One of the worst fullbacks I've seen play regularly for us. Nowhere near good enough as proved in his outings for us and his two other clubs in England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 The only player worse than Kenedy today. Good thing we signed players and Yedlin isn't injured or anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 It’s not really his fault he’s not as fast as Murphy mind, everyone knew that going in. There's ways for slow players to not get exposed by pace like. Murphy's quicker than most full backs, doesn't mean he'll get that much joy every game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 It’s not really his fault he’s not as fast as Murphy mind, everyone knew that going in. He's terrible every time he plays though, this has been obvious since day 1. I've literally never seen a game from him which isn't utterly horrible on the defensive side.

Altamullan Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Harsh thing to say about a professional footballer, but I couldn’t help wondering if he faked bad today. That is sought/welcomed going off injured as he was being shown up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
