Shearergol Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 If it helps Kaka, I certainly dont think Joelinton is the first player who should be criticised. Carroll, Richie and Shelvey are particularly holding us back at the moment. I think kaka ignores their threads criticising them though as it ruins his argument that we all love big Andy.

Menace Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Wanting him to fail is bizarre, but lets not get ahead of ourselves. He's still wank. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 It's likely to be somewhere in the middle. He's probably not as bad as what we've seen so far but also nowhere near as good to be rated at £40mil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I don’t dislike him tbh and don’t think he’s a bad player. He’s 100% not a number 9 or a £40m player though. Worth half that at best but if we’d signed him for £15-£20m you’d be more prepared to give him a bit of time especially in his second season. We ruined the bloke paying that much for him and putting the expectation on him like we did last summer. He's crap. Done ok the past couple of games. Next!

Carroll, Richie and Shelvey are particularly holding us back at the moment. I think kaka ignores their threads criticising them though as it ruins his argument that we all love big Andy. No, all I ever really said was that it was difficult to really know what we have in Joelinton because he was being used as a target man with balls lumped at him from the back, which was in complete contrast to the way he played previously where he was used to getting the ball into feet, in the numerous different positions he played. This apparently winds people up, along with any observation of him doing anything well by myself or anyone. It's weird It's like you can't talk about the guy's game unless you're saying how shite he is. What on earth is that about? It's not the same with any other player, which is why this strange argument isn't happening in those other threads. People were in the match thread praising Shelvey's goal, because it was a good goal, even though it was a League 2 side. So what? Do the same for Joelinton's goal against Morecambe, and here they all come! iTS A lEAguE 2 siDe THoUgh! hE'S sHIt! Bizarre stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 The midfield we have being overrun in every match and basically with hit and hope service to the forward players is it any wonder he’s looked poor? Look at Wilson in the last 2 games, totally anonymous. That’s not his fault. He’s clearly a decent player, just in the same way Joelinton is a decent player. He’s just getting zero help from his team. Until the club can manage to fix the midfield issues, the defence will be under constant pressure and the forwards and going to look isolated and inept.

It's the over reaction whenever anyone says he did well that's weird, and the strange idea that saying he did well means people are saying he's a class player. Everyone can just relax. It's going to be a terrible season under Bruce, and no player is going to do anything of note while he's here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I thought he did really well tonight, held up the ball nicely and created some chances, still looks nowhere near like scoring a goal but maybe now that we don't have to count on him for that he can provide us with something.

Would have worked even better with another attacking threat on the right, as Hendrick doesn't rally get forward down that side. Really linked play well and allowed for far better possession, and had some very nice combination play with the guys on the left side. Nice game to build on. Good to see him finally get a full game in this role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
