wormy Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Consider me eating previous words of doubt on this sex machine. I've always had a soft spot for him because of his desire to get forward whenever possible, whilst never having confidence in his defensive ability but this run throws that back in my face. Lock him down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet almost every one of us who has ever seen him play, with our non-professional football manager eyes, knew he should've been. We literally all knew better than Steve Bruce.

Smal Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 (edited) Would be content with a Schar-Burn partnership next season to be honest. They're perfectly suited as a centre back pairing. Bring in a a left-footed younger player for the future to step in when Burn's unavailable (Lascelles can back Schar up) and prioritise our spending on a couple of forwards.

Nine Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 He’s had a massive resurgence compared to the first few games under Howe, I was one of the people saying he shouldn’t be playing in a back 4 and he’s making me eat my words at the moment. Long may it continue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have access to free stats like FBRef, but on the left are stats for Fabien Schar in 2018/19 playing under Rafa Benitez. On the right is Fabien Schar in 2020/21 playing under Steve Bruce. I'll have to hit up that Kev guy from Statsbomb on Twitter to see if he'll do some Bruce vs. Howe numbers for this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Mark Douglas: Quote Meanwhile, Fabian Schar is keen to re-sign for the club and a round of negotiations have progressed well with the defender’s representatives. Schar has interest from Serie A and the Bundesliga but Eddie Howe wants him to stay at Newcastle. Financial terms are not anticipated to be an issue but Schar wants longer than the one-year deal offered last year and some reassurances about his role in the first team with the club looking to make further defender signings. https://inews.co.uk/sport/football/erling-haaland-man-city-transfer-contract-newcastle-budget-leeds-united-nfl-stadium-elland-road-1537746?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1648141105-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Would love for him to stay a few more seasons, but I don't think the club should give any player any assurances of playing time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
