thebrokendoll 9244 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 i appreciate this is hardly an exact science, however just for a chuckle.... playing for a premier league team against 3rd division opponents our £40m (i know) brazilian is notchimg up goals at the incredible rate of 1 in 3. equate this scintilating strike rate to the 27 games played by our mackem mates regular opponents and he'd be on 9. a quick look at the third division scoring chart means he'd be in joint 11th place with 7 other fuckers i've never heard of. well, apart from sunderland's chris maguire, who i think they all hated but now probably think is the dogs bollocks because he's better than charlie wyke. interestingly, joelinton's 1 goal for every 270 minutes played compares very poorly with those he's vying with in 11th place; so perhaps he's not even that good? lastly, top goal scorer in the 3rd division is ivan toney on 18. twice as many as that projected for our transfer record shattering striker. toney is knocking them in at the rate of 1 in 134 minutes, twice as quickly as our former hoffenheim, bundesliga superstar. just for further comparison, toney reportedy cost peterborough in the region of £650,000 i wonder if things are a bit strained between our mikey and nickson? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30620 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 (edited) We need to employ a ball boy to blow a whistle before every shot he takes. That’s thirty goals a season right there. Edited January 26, 2020 by ewerk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s thirty goals a season right there. in my sports science like analysis of projected goal scoring figures for joelinton in the third tier of english football i discovered that peterborough supporters sang a song about ivan toney having a big knob. this may or may not have helped toney to hit the ground running with 7 goals in the first 7 games. regardless of whether joelinton has a big cock or not a favourable ditty that he has could very easily see the goals start flowing? also, it'd be more pleasing to the ear than 'brucey giz a wave' maybe.

thebrokendoll 9244 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 all subjective of course, but this is just one list of many of footballing flops... https://www.90min.com/posts/6272728-30-of-the-worst-signings-in-football-history some noteable premier league striking inclusions... shevchenko to chelsea torres to chelsea mutu to chelsea benteke to liverpool alves to middlesbrough jo to manchester city soldado to tottenham carroll to liverpool (ranked no.1) all of the above have a superior record for their clubs than joelinton has for us. bearing in mind the above list was made in early 2019, is it not beyond the bounds of possibility that in a new list joelinton could leap straight to the top of the charts as the biggest flop in football history?!

Liverpool signings one and two on that list is rather funny. Some of the players on that list when on to different clubs and achieved great things, i doubt Joelinton will.

essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 From what I’ve seen,I cannot imagine Big Joe being anything other than shit in his preferred/best position. I remember reading on numerous occasions how good Shola was looking in training.I’ve yet to read Big Joe is banging them in during training.

37quidman 0 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 (edited) I think he is yet to find the right partner in a double act. Toshack and Keegan or Rooney and Tevez some players need to have an understanding with someone in particular. He has height and strength and his overall game seems ok its just his choice of movement off the ball taking him away from his mission as a striker. I would like to think it will work itself out somehow. Edited February 23, 2020 by 37quidman better choice of words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

37quidman 0 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 (edited) varies from game to game, not ideal by any stretch of the imagination, but he is young, big, fit, and has assisted play in some big games.. needs time. Drop him if you like, but dont give up on him Edited February 23, 2020 by 37quidman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 While I don’t think he’s very good he managed 7 in the Bundesliga last year, and his confidence by this point is shot to shit. The bigger problem iyam is the formation isn’t working yet Bruce keeps persisting with it and with the same players in the same positions. Like I say I don’t think he’s that good but I also don’t think he’s as bad as he looks at the minute, which applies to basically the whole squad really.

essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 When he drifts away from the centre forward position he still looks clueless,that’s why I have serious doubts whether he’ll ever be good enough.He’s never impressed on the ball,facing the opposition.He’s never impressed with his crossing or passing.He’s never taken a man on and convincingly beat him.He’s dross in the air.Is he doing ‘ A Shola’ , jumping and intentionally missing the ball .His hold up play is as bad as I’ve seen.His chest control is as bad as I’ve seen.He’s certainly no Wyn Davies in that respect !!! ( ask your Dad ) . We all hope he improves to a level where he is an asset to the team but he’s a million miles away from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

37quidman 0 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 (edited) I wouldnt pay 37 quid to go to the stadium of light because its a new stadium and I have little to no interest in new stadiums, its an age thing. I would pay 37 quid to go to say Newcastle or Leeds, because these are the grounds that I went to on the specials as a teenager. These places still hold a historical interest to me. New stadiums don't. Edited February 23, 2020 by 37quidman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
