He got 2 more than miggy last season and the season before he got 6. he’ll get my support of course but some people are falling over themselves to convince themselves he’s class. He’s a decent premier league player. Nothing more that being said I hope I’m wrong of course 6 goals but 10 assists in the season before last, 9 goals the season before that. You can’t argue his stats are impressive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willow Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Wanted Barnes here for years so I'm proper chuffed we've got him. I think he'll do really well for us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole criminal enterprise needs tearing down.” There's a couple who post on here that are ok but I think they're a strange bunch on the whole. Watching them interviewed on the Tyneside Life match day video last year, their indignance at losing to us was noticeable. As a club, they had a few interesting seasons in the 90s, but they did virtually nothing of note before 2016, then had a brilliant 5 years. Now they're a championship club which they've been for large swathes of their history. For some reason, they have a "but but we're a top club" vibe about their support.

toontownman Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Getting a quality LB is everything now. We all want a RW for the billionth season in a row but LB has to come next then hopefully a CB and maybe we can squeeze another RW/CAM in. We can probably get through to January with Miggy/Murphy and even the likes of Gordon/Willock willing in at RW, maybe even Ashby. Depth does seem a bit glaringly weak looking at that list though. CB isn't much different if more than one of Botman/Schar get injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not like when everyone bangs on about how it’s a purple patch for miggy, that we need to replace him and he’s so one footed. Yet Barnes scores two more than him and he’s amazing, better than Maddison etc etc Edited July 19, 2023 by gdm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone could quite as easily say they're fed up of all your posts saying you aren't impressed by this deal, and that you're falling over yourself convincing yourself hes not class.

LionOfGosforth Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I am very excited, not for the player that Barnes is, but for the player he's going to become under EH. We have seen remarkable improvements in players many had already consigned to the NUFC bin pre-Howe. I cannot wait to see this lad with proper coaching reach his full potential.
