Newcastle Tonight

Post by warksclaret » Sat Nov 12, 2022 5:26 pm

Have a funny feeling Chris Wood could score tonight. Got a typical Wood goal in the League Cup and scored last weekend too-Wilson is poorly and on the bench

Tell you what we done very well to get £25m for lump of Wood. Glad Pace took control and got him sold.

You're stretching it by even referring to him as a footballer.

Gifton Noel Williams scored a hattrick for us, not sure if it's true but I remember people saying Gifton had arthritis in both of his knees and had to get injections to play.

A player that got double figures in terms of goals for four consecutive seasons.

Only matched by six other players at the time.

If he was that bad why haven't more players in the Prem got double figures for so many seasons?

His goal return for us in a team that didn't create much was outstanding.

Chris Wood was truly awful and receiving an amount of 25 million was quite astonishing.

Would we have stayed up with an enthusiastic Wood ? Possibly, Newcastle knew what they were doing and I will never be persuaded otherwise that he was tapped up ages before he went to assist his new employer by being crap for us.

For someone ‘truly awful’ he’s got a pretty amazing goal scoring record at the top level of football.

£25m was a significantly inflated price. But that has no bearing on what he did for us. Saying he was truly awful is clueless.

Saying he isn't awful is clueless.

He played every single minute and took penalties in a team that was fully built around him, the team played for Wood to score. The team played detrimental football to benefit Wood. Wood's inefficiencies handicapped the team into wellying it long and high.

Funny one is Wood, for someone who’s cored so many goals he was never a crowd favourite.

As is often to case on here, there's a huge space between truly awful - which is pure bellendery- and brilliant and Wood belongs somewhere in the middle.

Scored more goals for Burnley than anyone else in the top flight since Andy Lochhead. What’s awful about that?

Newcastle last night were very impressive.

They were tigerish all over the pitch not giving Chelsea players a moment's piece. There is some obvious talent there too.

Wood did OK, as did Pope (including his well learnt time wasting tactics which cost him a yellow card) but it is clear that Trippier is pretty special still.
