lcfcbluearmy Posted 2 February Posted 2 February To be fair if he is cheap/ loan signing if we are just brining him in for character/ to inject some leadership into the squad probably a positive at the moment
JonnyBoy Posted 2 February Posted 2 February what are people expecting? some unearthed prime Maldini There is a high probability we will be playing in League 1 next season 2

It’s a punt, let’s hope he plays and stays fit
Popular Post suffolk fox Posted 2 February Popular Post Posted 2 February Hasn't played a competitive game in 18 months nasty career ending ACL injury. 32 years old, moment he plays he will last about ten minutes before pulling up with a hamstring injury, calf strain or groin injury. What a serious waste of money. Rudkin, Glover and Top haven't a bloody clue. We seriously do not need another defender, we need a goal scoring striker it's abundantly clear all we ever sign are defenders and midfield players it's a joke. We are sleepwalking to division one, clowns running the show can't see it. 3 1 1

Think even if Lascelles is off the pace at worst he will be able to win headers and knock about the lumps in this league that have been terrorising us I.e Dykes, Kieffer Moore etc Don’t kid yourself. He is Coady, Ayew, Bobby Reid all over again. Player with no hunger, no resale value and big wage we’re going to be stuck with. We don’t learn. 6

When a player has relied on their pace/athleticism, it makes me very nervous how they adapt in their latter years.
Ian S Posted 2 February Posted 2 February 1 hour ago, MPH said: ‘injured’ can be what people say when they want to get a move before the deadline Think you will find he has a hernia. Do you really believe anyone is interested in him on the wages we pay.

Could very well be but I don’t judge a player until they have played for us, had plenty of older signings work out very well for us I.e Huth, Morgan, Evans, Cambiasso, as well as some duds. I als don’t like lumping them in together, for me Reid shouldn’t be in the same sentence as the other two, he does try he just isn’t up to it, other two are absolute pony and put in nothing 1

This is a very fair point, I’m hoping he is still a big hard bastard and has brain on him, as his past issues were more down to his technicality in the ball. I’m hoping for a less brain dead but slower Okoli 1

He'll get injured chasing back when they play the high line and dives instead of attempting to control the ball and they get countered
PSR Fox Posted 2 February Posted 2 February I feel he will be a solid enough option for us & will be a step up on the current centre backs we have. All of course if he can stay fit . He was immense for Newcastle before his ACL.

MC Prussian Posted 2 February Posted 2 February Has this been confirmed, or why are so many getting their knickers in a twist when he‘s got to clear the medical exam first? But knowing this club, it wouldn‘t surprise me if we sign him regardless and he‘ll then turn out to be a healthy scratch for the rest of the season.👀

ceebeefox Posted 2 February Posted 2 February One thing in our favour, the way Newcastle play with power and pace, if he’s been training he’s been high tempo training, against quality pacey forwards. 4
