Hanshithispantz Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I think Mitrovic has comfortably looked the better forward on every level personally like. I can only assume that there's some next-gen manager shite I'm not seeing. Some instructional workrate thing that makes Rafa moist but which my ignorant eyes just cannot see. I'm not being flippant there either, Benitez obviously sees something in him. I don't think it's as petty as him simply not liking Mitrovic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Joselu's link up play has been good in like one/two games. Seriously. Also this is the same argument people had against Mitro starting. "Well he should score goals! linking up play isnt enough". Wild Yes, but there's no argument either way when the alternative's no better. Really, unless we're playing in a certain way that absolutely cannot be done with Gayle, he's the only one with any really big argument for playing.

Even if you dislike the lad it's there in plain sight how much of an improvement he made to us there. Hopefully even you can admit that. I'd doubt anyones knowledge or even just eyesight if they were to dispute that now. Deserves 3 starts in a row at least to get into the swing of things.

That bolded bit was specifically about hold up play like. I've actively wanted him starting for a while now, just for a change. I thought he was better than Joselu for the finish from Yedlin's cross alone, but the hype for him to play is canny ridiculous tbh, he's a better choice than Joselu because Joselu's not doing it, but I don't think Mitrovic will make the big difference that people seem to think. Depending on how we'd play, I'd have Gayle in before Mitrovic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0cafella Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 His link up play isn’t that bad but everything has to be into his feet as he’s not adept with his chest or head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Genuinely think this guy is just burned out. His performances early on were pretty promising, but he has completely run out of gas physically and mentally. He is not used to playing so much and being relied upon so heavily. Has to be giving a bit of a rest, and Mitro really needs to take the opportunity with both hands, and not do anything stupid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to be rotated to get him out of the spotlight which he clearly doesn't relish in front of a demanding fanbase. Newcastle's not a club for players who lack confidence, he'd probably benefit from being on the bench for a while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 he's not aggressive enough to strike fear into opposition defenders. Mitro can make his presence felt and that's why defenders are more attracted to what he does, thus open gaps in the backline where we should capitalize. Joselu does link up play well but so does Mitro and right now, Mitro should absolutely start ahead of this guy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumpelstiltskin Solano Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 I've bet £1 to win £100 that this c*** scores a hat trick, so he better be playing. That was really bad odds Yes for someone who is playing as a target man he barely wins anything in the air! Get rid and get Andy Carroll back that's what I say Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously people see different things when they are watching a football game. |I've said from the start that his finishing is shit, and that he lacks confidence, but I do think he works hard, and his link up play is decent to a point. But he shouldn't be in the starting line up ahead of Mitro at the moment because Mitro can offer more aggression and goal threat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
