New ex-players (and managers) thread

“Truly awful”

”0 pace, strength, stamina. Have to be extremely good of a ball player to compensate that. Which he isn’t”

”What has happened to him, years ago used to breeze around the pitch, cpl of my Leicester mates said he's slow and can’t do it no more, can see what they mean after that ”

Lovely stuff

He'll get 12+ goals and 10+ assists - as he's done for us - which will be a very good return

Perhaps, he likes his one-twos a lot. I'm surprised defenders haven't, for the most part, worked out how to defend against him. I hope he does well.

Barnes will be great. He's a limited player but he does what he does well. Today was the perfect way to bring him in with Newcastle ahead and the extra space to attack that that allowed for. It's all about his part in a squad.

Not surprised about Tielemans for Villa either. Feck knows how he has got so bad but he has become an out of his depth clodhopper with an ego to boot....

Barnes is class. Will do well.

Very possible Youris legs have gone.

Maddison will fit in nicely at Spurs. As I’ve said loads. Spursiest player to ever kick a ball, that bloke.

He is either switched on or doesn’t give a ****.

If Kane had stayed, I think those two would have combined really well.

 

[Rock Fox]

Only watched the match to see how Barnes andTielemans would do
When Newcastle were comfortably ahead = Barnes with an assist +goal. Well done Barnes = Tick
When AV need him = Youri contributed square root of FA =as expected = Tick

Shame.

I thought Maddison was with us when we won the FA cup?

He was but Rodgers turned him into Captain Special Boy, the perfect Spurs player.

When you've switched yourself off, it's difficult to switch yourself on again.

Yep. One of the key ingredients in our downfall was his stinking want away attitude being allowed to simmer away and slowly corrupt the rest of the squad over a period of about 2 years.......

 

[Miles Away]

Yes, started on the bench.

 

[Thefoxinoz]

Kane gone, Maddison wishing he'd gone elsewhere ... twat of the highest order.

I take great joy that he got punted back to Scotland.

I go through all of these scenarios in my mind when I see his face…

Watched the last twenty odd minutes

The standard of football is complete dog filth

God I hope Spurs lose.
