SAK Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Think he needs some time on the bench, not up to speed yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingArthur Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I think he should be used on the wing, was again the weak link in the midfield. Loses the ball way too often and makes bad decisions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Adore the bloke but that was a criminal lack of effort on the goal. Pure ball watching. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezzle Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Think tonalis game suited tonight better, joe wasnt good whereas he came on and was well up for it. Can say the same for longstaff, trippier and almiron mind. Just one of those nights it doesn't work Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Shouldn't be starting games until he's upto speed from the bench in games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Not match fit, couldn’t impose himself on the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Thought he looked very rusty against Palace, same again tonight Coming back from injury he probably will take a few games to get up to his usual high standard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holloway Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I thought he might have made the difference later on as they tired but it didn't happen, he's still getting up to speed. I'd absolutely start him in the return leg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Think it's become a bit of a theme against the better footballing sides that they've worked out he's not great at knowing what's behind him. Some simple movement and rotation and he can be undone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 He’s not a natural or experienced CM, sometimes struggled with neatness and tight control. Just exacerbated when he’s not fully fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 When he’s not at it he’s a passenger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lish007 Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Will be up to speed soon, can tell he's not match fit yet but we've sort of no choice but to play him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUHRLYASLEEVESUP Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Starting to take on that monstrous invincibility again, absolute machine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Yeah looks better, just wish he could actually hit a ball properly sometimes. Seems to slap the the ball with his heel a lot of the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 The way he rushed back to recover the ball when they were attacking at some point tells you he's had a right telling off for Wednesday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 There's few better sights in football than this bloke strutting around a pitch like he's playing against kids in his back garden. Fucking LOVE him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
