beardsleymagic Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Is it just me or is that genuinely the fastest I've ever seen him run? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

J7 Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Foot injury he’d been playing with that had affected his performances must have cleared up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played for Durham for years and also played for England across all forms. Was a very good player but never took his talent seriously enough Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the injury was an excuse ? as we were told he was having injections to play and playing through the pain barrier ? 7 days later (and missing the Australia tour) , he is sprinting up to bowl and putting all the pressure through his ankle ? Surely he should have been resting ? Or having a minor operation? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checko Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Don't know about the last month of the season, but there's a quote where he says 'West Ham on 30th March was "the first time in a while I've been excited to come in and play, just because I know I wasn't going to be in pain"' (https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5404865/2024/04/11/newcastle-injury-nightmare/) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he did sort the injuries/pain out. Then it didn’t change his performances. He was decent earlier in the season when Tonali was a bit hit and miss. Understandable, in hindsight. But he has been poor for a long while now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J7 Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Yeah it’s fair enough if he has recovered. Can’t say it improved performances much. Maybe a good preseason behind him will help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 2 hours ago, jack j said: Christ that must be 80+mph decent action as well Get him in the test squad Yeah, I seen him play at Tynemouth last season and he’s pretty sharp. Also bats left handed which I found a bit random. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Checko Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 (edited) Yeah I think he kind of always wants to play that advanced right-sided 8 role as that's what's been drilled into him. Even when we played more 442 vs Burnley he still seemed to play the exact same way. Edited May 26 by Checko Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing through injury is commendable etc, but it’s not why he’s a bad player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
et tu brute Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Got to be moved on this summer as everything is pure profit and he's nowhere near the level we need either. Need every penny we can get to count this summer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
