Joelinton: will not play against Everton (Howe)

[David Edgar]

He is definitely isolated and that will certainly play a part in his poor form, but I just don't see a £40m player in there.  He's a proper £15m signing from the Dutch league that turns out to be a dud kinda guy.  Except he's supposed to be some big money Brazilian wonderkid.

[Guest godzilla]

Honestly just can't see how anyone can see any positives, the bloke is just total and utter shit

[Karjala]

Utter shit once again, £40m? not worth £4m.

[Newcastle Fan]

He got pocketed today by Grant fucking Hanley, he's an awful striker and there's no way he can get away with that by just running about a bit.

[Tsunami]

Thank fuck we didn’t waste time buying a striker in the transfer window.

[KaKa]

Hey, remember when Perez was shite? Prior to Rafa coming in?

 

[James]

Hey, remember when Perez was shite? Prior to Rafa coming in?

 

 

Perez was never shite just had a few consistency issues

[KaKa]

Nope! Even I grew sick of him, and he used to get a ton of flack. Hence his cheeky celebration.

 

He was being played in the number 10 position without a reliable front man ahead of him, and no support from midfield and just got pushed off the ball every game.

 

I don't think we've managed 50% possession in a single prem game this season. When we manage that and can actually pass the ball in the opponents half, then I will start my evaluation of Joelinton.

What the same Rafa who wasn’t interested in signing him

[KaKa]

Think you quoted the wrong thing.

 

Rafa was happy to sign him but not at £40 million.

Is this really true?

[Guest godzilla]

Think you quoted the wrong thing.

 

Rafa was happy to sign him but not at £40 million.

 

Don’t think so, it was reported Rafa thought  he was not worth the price and wanted to go for other options.

George Caulkin has also said something very similar during his latest piece for the Times:

 

‘Newcastle have long been fixated on Joelinton, Hoffenheim’s Brazilian forward, who will cost around £36 million.

 

‘They pressed the 22-year-old on Benítez, who demurred; he liked the player, but not at anything like that price and, if there was that much money available, why not let him spent it on his own choices?‘

[Disco]

He’s shite but he’s being hung out to dry by a manager who’d likely welcome him getting a career ending injury.

 

Also sickening from a known moron to compare him to the absolutely despised SOFT SPANISH FUCKING CUNT Perez.

[KaKa]

I just don't know how we can evaluate any of our players higher up the pitch in this setup.

 

We saw Rondon look far less a player under Pulis and Perez look far less the player under Pardew and McClaren.

 

But hey ho ... lets keep watching. Saint-Maximin and Almiron have now started going off the boil again too.

 

It's all just rubbish man. I don't know why the pretence anyone looks like they have a clue going forward, and it's down to this one guy.

Which is exactly what I said previous. Not worth the money, as nowhere near the level of player he wanted and wanted that money to get one who was actually worth the price.

[KaKa]

Says he liked the player.

 

It was not an issue of him not being up to it. He just wanted to get his own players.

 

That's not what you said or are saying.

You could get a 28yr old maybe, but Big Mike would argue whether he was worth the money, even if he scored 15 goals a season.

He didn’t want the player at that price and wanted the money to sign his own player. What part of that can’t you understand? He obviously thought he was not worth the money or wanted him otherwise he would have agreed to the signing.

You’re right and at less than half the price. 40 million man for that s*** standard absolutely scandalous. He won’t even make ten million back off him when he’s sold.

You do realise that doesn't support your argument? Where does that say Rafa was happy to sign him ffs?

[KaKa]

I give up.

 

Let's just keep enjoying this wonderful season where only our defenders score under our brilliant manager, and it's all the striker's fault.

 

The one striker in the whole team who has actually managed to score all season.

Yeah, but then he could potentially lose £30m on a 28yr old striker if he hit 30 and was performing shit/got injured and was still here. This is how Mike views these deals. He made a mint from Perez and Mitro in transfer fees even though they were criticised for years initiallyby fans who expected immediate returns.

Both Perez and Mitrovic showed a lot more than Joelinton though.  This isn’t about age it’s about a player who is just not up to standard.
