Ah Malaga my old friend.

Yes I also remember that, there was a joking post after you won the Checkatrade trophy about how following the Mackems model was key to success if we wanted to win anything. You seemed the think the post was serious and started an argument with me about it; I didn't know whether you were on the autistic spectrum or just being deliberately stupid, but anyone who's interested can search through our posts and read it for themselves.
Really?
And you ask if he's being deliberately stupid!!

To be fair he was right, we won a trophy. Your last success was finishing equal 11th and thus getting a certificate
 
That's right, the same Burnley who their new 25 million pound striker played for. the same Burnley who are the only team that failed to score against them. That Burnley

Tbf "that Burnley" are our best chance of staying up, so surely you can see the logic in paying over the odds for the guy who's been their top scorer for the last 4 years?

I could see the logic in previous years but he's done **** all this year.

If anything you'vr probably helped Burnley because they'll change their style of play. Your lot put less crosses into the box than Burnley and that is where Woods is most dangerous yet he;s only got 3 for Burnley this season. Who's going to deliver the balls to him?

Tbh no one at Burnley has done anything this year, we'll see how things pan out with him here.

Crosses? ASM, Almiron, Longstaff, even Shelvey. Supply hasn't been the problem, just that there's no one on the end of the crosses.

And just for clarity, Ritchie has supplied 1/3 of of crosses :)

So in summary it would appear that you don't even know where your crosses come from and that basically you're full of **** living in dreamland
 
Ok then. Is this opinion based on facts or opinion?

By the way that is the Premier League website stats https://www.premierleague.com/stats/top/clubs/total_cross
That's weird seeing Newcastle at the bottom of a league table...are we sure? This must be a conspiracy by the Premier League against the Jawed Nayshun, where most of their crosses are disallowed by VAR, and that the referees are in on the conspiracy. Or am I making things up?

That's still 301 crosses which is hardly an area of concern, vs Burnley thats an average of 16 a game vs their 21 a game.

I repeat, crosses are not the issue, just people putting the ****ing thing in the net, we're averaging one goal a game, which is clearly due to the lack of a decent striker, as only Wilson scores regularly and he's injured a lot of the time.

ASM regularly runs down the wings and takes players on, but most of the time has no one to cross to as there's no strikers in the box, thus there's no chance to cross. Ritchie takes corners and free kicks, in open play more chances come from ASM.

17th isn't bottom, 20th is, so yeah you're making things up.

I think if we were the fourth worst at something in the league I'd see it as a point of concern that needs addressing. I think everyone would if they're being honest.

Does maxim ever put a cross in? I like him mind as he’s a defenders nightmare but he’s certainly not a get to by line and whip it in type of player.
Shelvey crosses from too deep to cause any real problems and Almiron (the genius rafas record signing) never seems to do anything constructive.
It’s all very well blaming strikers but whenever I’ve watched you lot the supply line is pretty limited so they’re feeding off scraps.
