Most distance covered in the league this year? 

 

Nah, the Man U squad distancing themselves from Ten Hag has that covered

Watched the club for 30+ years and, excepting Shearer, I struggle to think of a player at a higher level. 


Isak might be the only other candidate. Maybe Ginola in 95/96.

 

There were some great players in the

robson era but I really don’t think anyone else was on Bruno’s level

He gets forgotten about these days, but Cabeye really was quality. He isn't on Bruno's level, but he was class.

He was probably closer to Colback's level than Bruno's. :lol:

 

(Maybe exaggerating)

I like that comparrison, don't really care how accurate it is :lol:

Bruno is the best midfielder I've seen for us, he literally has it all.

Ben Arfa was of that level. Just unfortunately he was managed by an absolute weapon and sadly he had his own troubles which prevented him from ever doing it long enough.

 

Bruno, Isak and Ben Arfa would have been pure filth.

In terms of consistent impact for the team you are probably right. 

But for me, it is a betrayel against the soul of football to put anyone above an in form Hatem Ben Arfa ;) I will never forgive Alan Pardew.

Cabaye was quality, not on Brunos level but class all the same. He's another player that shone whilst being a big fish. Silly boy would have been talked about as a PL legend, of sorts, had he stayed. 

 

Instead his career sort of fizzled out after us.

I think you are right. Ben Arfa is probably the most talented footballer I've ever seen play for Newcastle.
