Skeletor Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Ginola is still the best wideman I've ever seen at this club. Anyone who didn't live through/experience the Entertainers team may not ever understand just how incredible that team was collectively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Butcher Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 HBA for me. He really should’ve been one of the best players of all time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Holden Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 HBA for me. He really should’ve been one of the best players of all time. One of the best players of all time at Newcastle or in the world? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Ben Arfa was the most talented but unfortunately he played for Pardew's Newcastle whereas Ginola played for Keegan and Robert for Bobby Robson. Therefore they did more for us than him, not that he couldn't have if we had a real manager instead of fish lips when he was here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wandy Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Ginola is still the best wideman I've ever seen at this club. Anyone who didn't live through/experience the Entertainers team may not ever understand just how incredible that team was collectively. Can't agree more with this. In 35 years of following NUFC I have seen a lot of world class players but whenever someone asks me who is the best player I have ever seen in a Black & White shirt I always say David Ginola in his first 3 months at the club. Better than Keegan, Waddle, Beardsley, Gascoigne or Shearer. In those first few months he was simply unplayable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinoasprilla Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Love them all but Ginola was pure world class especially his first 6 months. The goal against Ferenvarcos, making a mug of Neil Coxon his on byline, destroying Gary Neville. We lost the title when Gillespie got hacked by Phil Neville and teams started doubling up on him Would have loved to see him on the left and Solamo on the right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Butcher Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 HBA for me. He really should’ve been one of the best players of all time.

Just to confirm, you're saying he should be up there with the likes of Zidane, Ronaldinho etc. as the greatest of all times? Bold statement, brother. You boozin'?

Guest Butcher Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Just fucking love(d) HBA He should’ve been up there with the best. But in the end I don’t think he can blame anyone but himself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Just fucking love(d) HBA He should’ve been up there with the best. But in the end I don’t think he can blame anyone but himself. Yup. If he had Shearers mentality he’d have had a long career at Barcelona alongside Messi. Instead, somehow, he ended up on loan at Hull not getting picked by Bruce. So tragic.

Wallsendmag Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Robert no 1 for me, but completely understand why people put Ginola there. Same here. Robert ahead of Ginola purely because he scored and assisted far more goals. Both incredible players mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Just have a team with peak HBA, Ginola, Robert and ASM in 4 attacking positions and call it a day. Pure taste. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 True mavericks never reach their potential and that’s why we love them so. Maradona and Best both say hello. I think I hear Gazza coughing in the background, too... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 You’re coming at It wrong but thanks for proving my point. All could’ve achieved more but because they didn’t is why they’re so reviled. Even if they hit the top. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Gazza spending his late 20s playing in the fucking SPL is pretty solid indication he didn’t reach the heights he could have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 There are people who think Diego Maradona was the best player ever - well, those people now think of Messi, but Diego #2. What more could he possibly have achieved in his career? And until Maradona came along, there were people who thought Best was the best ever. "Reviled"?

Disco Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 I’ve used the wrong word, reviled, there tbf. Aside from that though... Short Peaks and troughs, that’s a true maverick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toon25 Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Love this guy. Not worth contemplating the position we’d be in without him. Unpredictable and does what we all love to see and carries the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jinx Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Without the takeover I think it would have been very difficult to keep ASM. By far our best player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiled in Texas Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 On TV ASM looked to be limping off from the stands after the game (maybe just stiff legs). Hope did didn't pull anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
