Joelinton: will not play against Everton (Howe)


Recommended Posts

Has the number 9 shirt been 'removed' from anyone since they've been given it?

 

Was someone else number 9 when Shearer came in? (probably a daft question)

Didn't Gayle lose it as well?

 

Sir Les have it up for Shearer and became #10

Resurrected this as it's a while since the last comment.

 

With the new signings (blow my socks off they do) what role does anyone see for Joel now?

 

Sub? Sidekick to Wilson? Given away?

 

Would like to see him starting on the bench and easing his way in, if there's a player in there then he might shine when there's less pressure being the main striker. Although realistically we'll probably loan him out.

Not that he could get any worse but I think he'll have a better season this year, if we manage him well (lol). Get some confidence coming off the bench and playing anywhere in the 3 behind Wilson - he's much more suited to that sort of position rather than leading the line. Possibility he could play in a front 2 at times as well.

This would be the ideal approach, absolutely agree with you :thup:

Officially stripped of the number 9.

 

Sorry, son. Sorry you were so shite...

 

They've done him a massive favour with that move, and it's the right decision.

 

I was hoping they would do that, but wasn't sure they actually would. It was just an added pressure on the guy.

Yeah if they can find some way to get him on the pitch at the same time, I think he could work quite well with Wilson playing off him.
