Ikon Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Well done Steve. You done the exact same thing earlier in the season with him. Maybe he thinks its the same thing as eating? Despite being full you can still continue to eat more without getting injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 We had to play him as really no one else can provide what he does, hope it's not too serious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 We had to play him as really no one else can provide what he does, hope it's not too serious. So, who the fuck will provide it when he is out for a month or whatever? Never mind for so long. Taking Almiron off before him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinho lad Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 It's alright to admit your faults when you're winning. But when you're losing, it's excuses. Cowardly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Outrageously stupid. I honestly don't think his absence would make that much of a difference, either. Nothing we do actually suits him; he's only there for the "give it to that guy so he can run forward loads" role. Atsu can do a passable job at that.

toontownman Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Has to switch almiron over to that side. Hopefully we do better with ASMs rehab than Gayle and Ritchie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing we do actually suits him; he's only there for the "give it to that guy so he can run forward loads" role. Atsu can do a passable job at that. The injury was simply down to him over exerting chasing a ball down in the last minute, disappointing. Saying Atsu can do a passable job is complete bollocks. Atsu is no where near the player, it’s ridiculous to suggest he can do half the job. He’ll be a big miss, he’s our out ball at the minute, we’ve nobody else like him.

Conjo Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Bruce gambled with Maximins health at the beginning of the season too. Not surprised. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atsu is no where near the player, it’s ridiculous to suggest he can do half the job. He’ll be a big miss, he’s our out ball at the minute, we’ve nobody else like him. It absolutely isn't bollocks. Atsu's perfectly fine at carrying the ball, he's just got zero end product. ASM has one goal and how many assists? Is it zero? Their contributions therefore aren't going to differ enormously. I'm criticising the system here, not the player. He's clearly very talented but it's not like the team is built around him, or anyone for that matter (aside from when Carroll's on the pitch, when everything becomes about him). ASM's quick and a decent dribbler, so he's only used to be direct, without any real sense of purpose beyond that. As it happens, pace and dribbling is literally all Atsu has - so he can basically just come in and do the same thing. Much lower ceiling talent-wise, obviously.
