Alex Moss 2,167 Posted August 18, 2019 Joelinton - looks like they’ve found their very own Naismith. When you spend £40m you should be in no doubt you’re signing a top drawer proven player, you don’t take a ‘punt’ with that kind of money. Early signs are that he will be one of the biggest money flops the Premier League has ever seen, makes me so grateful for what we have folks 🙏 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yellow Wal 315 Posted August 18, 2019 will be interesting to see Joelinton and Andy Carroll together ....... if he ever does that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drazen Muzinic 1,502 Posted August 18, 2019 My Newcastle-supporting friend is certain they've made a mistake and signed a Sunday league player called Joe Linton. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete 371 Posted August 19, 2019 No backbone at all feigned injury to be substituted will obviously up for a relegation fight. He was toilet other big money signings Almiron was awful and the other Allen Saint Maximin looked remarkably like Yanic Wildshutt as a sub last week head down and charge. Ashley opens the cheque book and buys rubbish, that midfielder on man U radar Longstaff was pretty poor. One relegation spot sorted and Villa's expensive policy not exactly looking good.

BobLoz3 609 Posted August 19, 2019 It's funny how last week I was hearing pundits and journos alike stating that "Joelinton looks a handful" and "Almiron has something about him"... Yet more proof that most of these lunatics have absolutely no clue about players let alone football. Just because they're ex players, doesn't always mean they'll have fantastic insight! The journalists for the Nationals?? Even less insight for the most part! I know it's only one win and that we shouldn't get too excited (same as we shouldn't have been too let down with a loss last week) but the signs certainly are encouraging. Only problem is, it's becoming increasingly more difficult to fly under the radar! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
