TRon Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 5 hours ago, Mr Raspberry Jam said: He looked leggy to me and a bit off the pace. You could see he had been out for a couple weeks, chucked in against a side that was playing on the back of the crowds adrenaline. Even so he still looked one of our better players. Even an 85% Joelinton is better than the alternatives. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been following his stats on The Other 14 and WyeAyeScout on Twitter. But when they are isolated using those FBref stats followed by "he is one of the best midfielders in the world" Just burst out laughing and I still have a big smile on my face.

jackyboy Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 He didn't look 100% fit to me in the last game. I'm assuming that this illness that they seem to be affected by is COVID and maybe it takes a little while to get over it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a groin injury he was struggling with and has been for some time, I think. Hopefully this break means a few of them can get over their niggles and illness. 4 games after Spurs gives us a real opportunity to put some decent points on the board and go on another positive run.

Newcastle Fan Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Not has his best game at all today, most of our players actually looked out of shape after the camp in Dubai, tempted to see Bruno start in his place next game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Away Toon Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Joe hasn't looked good for a few games now and surprise surprise he maybe isn't the answer to our midfield problems. Problem is where else can we play him? Maybe CH he's big enough and ours are crap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree it'd be great to see this fantastic form continue over the next few games/season though. I worry however that some of his ability is a result of a 'lack of training', in that he's just doing everything that comes naturally and playing with complete freedom. As he becomes embedded and settles in as a CM, all the new training drills and the like he'll be doing may take away that raw, natural play to his game and it might constrain him a bit. Hopefully my concerns are completely unfounded and he goes on to be as great as we hope he can be based off the last few games. I really hope I wasn't prophetic and that he comes back as strong as ever in his next few games, he looked anonymous for large parts of the game.

gbandit Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 People need to calm down like, he’s been our best consistent performer since Howe came in, putting in 8/10 performances match after match. I thought he was decent enough against Everton, it was only yesterday his level really dropped Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmesy Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 There wasn't one player on the pitch that can hold their head high after that performance/result. The fact that we now have such high expectations for Joe shows how far he's come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 You’d like to think he’s seeing this run in as a way of showing he’s good enough not to be replaced in the starting XI this summer. Just not sure if the balance in the midfield three will be right if we signed someone like Paqueta who’s more a number 10, would we need a more out & out ball winner alongside Bruno? I know Joelinton is great at breaking up play but not sure he’s that type of player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
