Christmas Tree 3997 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 So which other losers are going to spoil their Saturday afternoon by watching this shower? Raises hand. Ever the optimist, I'll be hoping for a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 3997 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 statistically we don't create many chances so that completely destroys that argument You know what you do with your statistics. Only a week or two ago we had a game where three headers went wide when it should have harder to miss. It's a silly argument to be having really as we all know we need at least two quality strikers in the squad. At the minute we have none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Discount stats as they prove you wrong. If I was arsed I would put the stats up from premier league goal scorers this season which pretty much game, set and match our striking discussion. But I'm not, particularly after just tidying a 5 year olds bedroom from hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Has anyone denied that our strikers haven't been good enough? well that's been my point. It's others who are focussing on chances created or what other attributes Mitrovic has etc etc. But then again some people just like to argue against any point I make. With luck, one day you will all be as wise as me. Anyway enough arguing from me. Time to mentally prepare for the inevitable roller coaster of emotions.

Alex 30385 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Only a bigger idiot would think we don't have a striker problem.no one said we didn't. Your argument was there were plenty chances being created for our strikers. A good conversion of chances rate is about 20% though so the amount of chances created had a huge impact on goals scored. It's bound to impact the form of any strikers too. Even more so if they aren't in the top 10 in the league. For all that though you've flip-flopped abor 5 times over how good mitrovic is.

Excitement as you go to the chippy, anxiety in case it's closed, happiness that it's open, waryness there'll be a queue, joy there isn't, eagerness to get home to eat it, immense satisfaction filling your face, guilt when you sit on the settee bloated. What a roller coaster! You enjoy it, CT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like most fans I looked forward to what he might do, been gutted by some of his performances, understood why he's been dropped and still hope it eventually all clicks for him. After all he's only young. Some on here want to turn in into a pro Mitrovich or against him. I'm simply pro Newcastle. Plenty of games this year though where we've created enough chances to score and we haven't took them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this started off with a pretty basic McLarens being let down by the players comment, which as usual, has twisted and turned into a monster.

The players were poor but he has to take a massive portion of the blame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19817 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Fuck, just struck me that after today there's 13 games left and we still need 5 or 6 wins to be absolutely safe. Got to be winning today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
