jonny1403 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 12 hours ago, Erikse said: For some reason I'll have to remind you that we're having a discussion about how much he can contribute today. Why are you using goals mainly scored in 2023 as an argument? Him scoring 4 goals in the last 1 year and 4 months is 10x more relevant to the discussion than the 7 goals he scored from aug to nov 2023.. But hey, lets forget all the context and try to push an agenda instead. What are you talking about You've literally just cherry picked a set amount of months to make his goalscoring record seem as poor as possible. And I'm the one pushing an agenda without context?! Of course goals he scored last season are relevant, no matter when in the season they were scored. What a mental take Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be remembered fondly as one of our best ever strikers (imo) but he's finished now (again, imo). Just this post in the main tbf: 5 hours ago, Dr Venkman said: He’s been ineffectual in general play for years. Absolutely sick of the sight of him TBH.

I think he can only be judged on recent performances, where he looks to have lost his strengths. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1964 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 He looks like he's lost his match management brain. Twice against forest I was cursing him for trying to score, rather than head for the corner flag and see the game out. Really unintelligent football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a mental take So you think his goals in late 2023 proves that he still got it today? That's literally what you're saying. By the metric of "last season g/a", Howe should be starting Trippier every single game today, and he can't be sold to anyone. You understand it yourself, you just pretend not to. Therefore there is no point trying to explain it again, so I'll leave it there. Edited February 26 by Erikse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his goals over the whole of last season are a better sample size then 3 (three) minutes off the bench against Nottingham Forest, yes. Glad we cleared that up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nine Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 He’s rusty in front of goal no doubt, but in terms of his overall game he’s looked far sharper than I expected. It’s still there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Think he can still score goals tbh. He was never a great contributor outside the penalty area even at his best, he's shown he still has the goalscorer's instinct. Just without the goals so far this season.

Newcastle Fan Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Super rusty and i don't know how sharp he'll be able to get from now until the end of the season, that finish was too bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelinton7 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 So… back to Bournemouth and we’ll have Kluivert and Semenyo, Huijsen, Zabarnyi and Kerkez? Fair? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 He was shite, spent most of the game drifting offside. You could see Willock on at least two occasions losing his rag as he wanted to play a ball through but had to delay it and eventually lose it because CW was clearly beyond the last man. It would be so typical if two years after our last cup final, we had to go into another one with a chronically out of sorts Wilson leading the line. Say your prayers that Isak is healthy for it.

TRon Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Just now, Smal said: thought he was fine tbh. He’s not Isak and he’s barely played for like a year or something. Plus he didn't do that much different even in his pomp. Other than miss, but we've seen Isak miss so many one on ones this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny36 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Hes only 4 months older than Salah but probably feels like 5 years.. Injuries have finished Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Did much better than expected. While it's a severe downgrade on Isak, I don't think him starting against Brighton and West Ham if Isak isn't ready is a crisis, although I'd prefer Osula to be given a shot.
