KaKa Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 He was unbelievable last night. Man of the match IMO. That turn in midfield to lose the man that was on him before driving forward and threading a perfect through ball to Gordon was outrageous. His ability to thread a ball like that when it's on is so underrated. Unfortunately the player he finds often messes up the chance Glad he was out of the team for a bit and people have come to appreciate his value more. It's not always pretty with him, but the positives far outweigh the negatives when everything gets tallied up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) He's better technically than people think just because he's a big lad. He's Brasileiro at the end of the day. Feel like he was just shattered before and has benefitted from the time out. Also might be games where he can be rested for Ramsey or a new player.

Geordie Ahmed Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 He definitely frustrates at times because his technical side of the game isn't the best but when he's on it physically he's unmatched The biggest issue for the last 12-18 months for him has been the injuries, he had the big one against the Mackems in the cup but then he kept on picking up knocks here and there Just got to hope he can remain fit for this second half of the season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boey_Jarton Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 His ball retention and ability to receive the ball and turn into space has been excellent in recent weeks. He also seemed to realise the importance of stepping up and taking responsibility when his pal Bruno went off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 My beastly brasilian radge packet is back I always had faith in him that he would come good. I do think him and bruno like to play all the time even when there knackered physically or carrying injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 We kept saying don’t run him into the ground and keep playing him back to back…… Exactly what we’ve done. Looks like his groin again FFS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) Been an absolute beast in recent weeks since he last came back. Love when he's giving it large like - its not always for the best but it's like a roaring lion would love a photo of when he left tow of them on the deck...was that even worth the booking btw? Or were they just shithousing daftkernts? Edited January 25 by Heron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 He has been class lately, was hoping his injuries were behind him but sadly not Hopefully it's not serious and we see him back soon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missed games where he was on the bench as emergency cover only and I’m sure Howe said he had been playing through it. Which would explain his poor performances early on. Even if it isn’t the same one. Playing him almost non-stop and every game after returning. With his playing style and injury history. Feels pretty negligent to me. Plenty moan about Tino coming back too soon or playing too much. This feels far worse to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Think with the way he plays he’ll break down at least every ten games at this stage in his career. Still think we need to sell in the summer despite him being a Newcastle hero Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
