Honey Honey 3,767 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Based on his history I think we can expect a contribution of about 7 league goals this season unless the fit is incredibly strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honey Honey 3,767 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Unless we have some kind of major fall off then he will have to be good against bus parkers to get that. Last season we faced a lot of naive teams who hadn't come to terms with the fact that Newcastle are better than them. A lack of respect and over confidence got a lot of teams spanked by us.

Which is why Tonali was signed, the classical Mazala drifts into half spaces and delivers those dangerous bending crosses between the keeper and defenders, they are awkward to deal with. it will take the load off Trippier. last season you have maxi and miggy narrowing the pitch which is the last thing you want against teams that park the bus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeKhrush 301 Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 if also like to add that Barnes has played for Leicester teams that were good teams playing champions league football and pummeling Man United at Old Trafford type teams. Are you saying they never played park the bus teams? They pummeled us many times with Brucey parking the bus. Barnes can use his left and right which is a forgotten art. sneakily we have gone from very few Brits to quite a lot of Brits, fantastic for registration of European rosters.

No. I didn't realise you said goal "contributions", thought you meant he'd score 15 goals. I'm too old now to care for the latest opta definitions.

OrangeKhrush 301 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Overall I think it was a good deal, probably took longer than it needed to but we got the player that fits the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
