The Fish 10979 Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I'm hoping my early concerns about his ability were premature, he's certainly got the right kind of character we need at the club. He's still prone to the odd silly decision and taking up the wrong position, but hopefully those wrinkles will be ironed out through experience and under Benitez' tutelage. Hearing him (and Hayden) speak, it makes me think that there's a decent amount of young lads coming through who are far more professional than the great wash of entitled pricks that preceded them.

StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) Aye I know we haven't got the best squad available but at least we know they mostly all want to be here, be involved with the club, play for the shirt and not just a bigger payday elsewhere. I think some forget that after years of wanting a team that at least tries, some write players off quickly for not having the ability of past players weve had.

Ayatollah Hermione 14133 Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 he went to work one day and his legs were blown off. I shouldn't laugh and I assume he's ex-military but imagine he just worked in Debenhams and stood too close to a malfunctioning radiator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 17786 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) I'm of the opinion that our captain is one of the few in the modern game who can be seen both anecdotally and literally leading his teammates partly because of the abysmal example set by Collocini when he joined the club http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-5260199/amp/Jamaal-Lascelles-Newcastles-tactics-against-Man-City.html?__twitter_impression=true Edited January 12, 2018 by PaddockLad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10979 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Was just coming to post that myself. It's been a while since we had a true leader on the pitch imo. Hope he gets an England call up soon so that he doesn't leave to get it somewhere else. Saddened but not surprised by what he says about the time under McClaren. The bloke was clearly seen as a joke.

Ayatollah Hermione 14133 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Would love to see him debating things out with Neville and Carragher tbh.
