    He needed a better manager at that time in his career.. He had suffered a double leg break, but was still head and shoulders ahead of the players pardew was picking ahead of him and his attitude needed something more intelligent than the old school "ya fakin ****" treatment I suspect.. Who knows

    He's been a **** for every manager he has played for.

    Could have been a worldie but the only thing worldie in the end was his stomach and his ego

    But if his head was in the right place he would never have come to play for us.

    To be honest he wasn't worth the hassle of playing with 10 men for 9 out of 10 games

    agree. Unplayable for a game and **** for 9. I’d rather someone with half his talent turn it on consistently.

    That's one more game than Joelinton every 10 and tbh I think it was closer to double that

    Mong?
    Sir Alan brought him to the Club and then made sure he was bought despite the injury.
    You, more than anyone should be on bended knees praying to the blessed one. <laugh>

    That aside, the best we've had in the past 10years, despite the blindness amongst some unbelievers on here.

    Tbh I don't think any of our managers get much of a say.. Rafa did but at all they do is provide a list and then charnley says there I've managed these ones..

    Indeed but the process would've been much the same..in his case I suspect he was told look from your list we can get this one... Do you want us to go ahead.
