Not just a beast, actually shows decent composure to bring the ball out of a minefield in the middle and release teammates which is crucial. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Shame he got booked. Took one for the team and he needed to. As we lost it and they were getting away on a counter. Which I guess was why he was so annoyed. But a yellow in the 93rd or whatever it was and one for diving last week. Proper sickener that they both feel so avoidable. He’ll probably miss City…… and Wolves. Might play within himself a bit now and all. One of the few decent players tonight. 3-4 times it seemed like he was blindsided and wasn’t expecting a challenge. Then the Bournemouth player just bounced off him and hit the deck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 He’s had a few unlucky yellows this season where he got the ball and the refs put him in the book mistakenly. He was livid that they gave him such a shitty booking today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Ridiculous you cannot appeal yellows like when they lead to a 2 game ban. 2 now he’s visibly won the ball and been booked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWMag Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Only bright spark today I thought. Played the deeper of the 3 midfielders and didn’t look like it was new to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Laughed out loudly when he brought down and shielded the ball before shrugging off the Bournmouth player and playing an insane lobbed through ball to ASM. He's so fucking good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 He’s a cheat code, the amount of points he’s worth in a season is huge. He’s our number one player for cutting out attacks before they reach our penalty area and his forward passing is improving too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should correct myself, he shrugged off 2 Bournemouth players before he sent ASM through. 39:39 of the first half if anyone wants to re-watch it as it wasn't in the extended highlights.

HawK Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 He's the most likable Newcastle footballer I've ever known. Would love to know what other clubs' fans think of him tbh, or is it just us that lives in a deluded world where only we think he's the second coming of Viera?

STM Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 I still can't quite fathom how good he is. It's like the U9s have invited an U11 to play and their just bouncing off him. He's just so much bigger, quicker and physical than most (all) other midfielders. It's like the way people talk about Haaland bullying defenders, Joelinton bully's midfielders. If he had just a bit more killer instincts around the opposition box he'd be absolutely unstoppable but I'm more than happy the way he is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guybrush Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Loved this guy shouting 'I'm fine, I'm fine!' from the sidelines Glad he was taken off, but only because we must protect him for the final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Eddie was so right to take him off. He's not just a beast defensively, he actually has great feet in tight situations when bringing the ball out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 (edited) Really hope he is ok for Wembley. I can't shake my worry for him. Having Bruno back isn't enough without this guy. The keeper situation is obviously a worry but we atleast have cover there. We simply have no one that can replace what the beast here does for the team.

We simply have no one that can replace what the beast here does for the team. He seemed to be smiling and saying he wanted to carry on. So I’m guessing it isn’t serious. Since his move to midfield. He has always been playing through some kind of injury and regularly getting treatment, it seems. I don’t think he is like ASM or Wilson. Where a slight strain seems to turn into weeks/months out. Just got to hope it is a bit of tightness and nothing more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
