  1. That's only one example , there are far many others of bad rating. And , if Gosling was in fine shape , would he be worse than Tiote?
  2. That's what I'm talking about , Newcastle would be fighting for spots in Europe if such things didn't happen! We could actually mount up a decent FA campaign , well ... but then, we had that loss and ...
  3. Then we wonder ... why England has only won a World Cup ... if they could rate players better ...
  4. First of all, Newcastle being relegated was just CRAP. We had a fantastic team, a team that could go on and get a spot in the Europa League and then, we get some crappy managers and go down to the Championship! But, hey ... alright, we'll bounce back, we still have a very good team, we can win the Championship. That actually happened, Championship was very easy for us and with that campaign, I was looking for a mid-table spot. Came the 3-0 loss against Man Utd, I wasn't sad at all, I knew the team had few bright players... but then we beat Villa 6-0, and get to do a very good first half of the season, that lit the hopes of an European spot for the following season . Then Chris Hughton was fired and I was like ''WTF? The team was doing just fine!'', and came Alan Pardew . At first I trusted him, the critics were bashing him, and I hope that he would shut 'em up. Yes, he did it indeed, he made a good substitution taking Ameobi out and putting Ranger, as the young kid gave fire to the team and the Geordies won 3-1. Carroll was bought by Liverpool in the last day of the winter transfer season, and Newcastle knew they would actually fall down a little bit , but not what Pardew did! Losing to Villa? Fine. Epic 4-4 against Arsenal? Good. Losing 4-0 to Stoke? We can deal with that. Losing to Fulham? Hey, win some. Losing 3-1 to STEVENAGE BOROUGH? NO! Pardew won less than 30% of Newcastle's games since he took over , compared to ( not accurate value ) Hughton's 40% or something like that. It's deception after deception...
  5. I'm still improving, y'know...It's hard for latinos to speak English!
  6. The mainstream critics in Brazil rate Andy Carroll and Theo Walcott as future stars. 95% of the underground critics rate Dan Gosling as a future star. ( many of them also rate many other players like Taarabt , Sinclair , Hazard , Jake Rodwell , Sturridge , etc. ) English fans may like Tioté more because of the tradition from English football for being fast-paced and hard-hitting. But Brazil , Argentina , Spain ( countries that focus more on the technical part of soccer ) They're more used to those defensive midfielders that can work out plays , like Joey Barton , or Ramires , or Xavi ( Xavi plays regularly on the center midfield , but he's also defensive ) , and the list goes on. I consider Tioté a bad player because of my culture , and you , because of your culture , disagree with me. We can argue for centuries about whether Tioté is good or not , and we'll never reach a point where both of us are satisfied , because there are two sides of the coin , I defend one side , you defend the other.
  7. Cheick Tioté is such a great midfielder !!!! I think anyone could do better than a guy that just hits people.
  8. Ranger is raw , but he is only 19 , he needs to start games! The 3-1 against Liverpool was a fine exhibition , he gave fire to Newcastle! He's quite quick , and has displayed lots of talent in the reserves . Okay , playing in the reserves is WAY different from playing in the seniors , but It's better than what Ameobi would do. Best actually scored 6 goals in 10 games , and in these 10 games , It was all about him , Nolan and a few Lovenkrands spots.Funny fact is , if Best scores a hat-trick against a team fighting for relegation , he's AVERAGE. If Carroll scores a hat-trick against a team fighting for relegation , he's GREAT . That's the only thing I don't like about the critics . They overrate too much the english talent and other UK/Irish players do almost the same thing and they just play in mid-table teams. Ireland was a starting 11 in City before the $$$$$$$$$$ era , and if he starts against Blackpool , I think he might do OK. I heard Gosling already recovered , so .... why can't we take out the Ivory Coast Nigel De Jong and put him? My bad about the Wolves result , I tought it was 2-1. Not that I think Andy Carroll was bad , but the team wasn't 100% HIM. He was only the man to put the ball inside or make some headed passes from corners .What if Joey Barton didn't give Carroll lots of assists?What if Jonas never did some nice individual plays and passed the ball to Carroll? He would be compared to Kenwyne Jones. You can't just lose some easy games and blame it on the missing attacker , because the team is composed of 11 players , not 1.
  9. Best is a fine striker , Pardew had him for a damn nice time before the ankle injury. Stephen Ireland already recovered from his injury , he's quite a good midfield player , and can also play as a striker Nile Ranger needs experience , but if damn Pardew trusted him , he could be a Premier League level striker. Some football critics here in Brazil consider Dan Gosling a player that , if put on the starting 11 regularly , can become an England international.
  10. Well , let's take a look at what happened with Hughton : He beat Arsenal He drew with Chelsea He beat Wolves away Most of his losses weren't in St.James Park So , what I mean is ... if Hughton stayed , We could've been in 6th , fighting for a spot in the Europa League , not watching out for relegation.Before the Wolves win , we were 4 POINTS away from relegation zone , It wasn't that good , and If we had lost that game , what happened? We would be ONE POINT away. Pardew's not doing a good job , and I'm just waiting for the next season to come , because I can't stand Ameobi in the offense , we need a better striker , buy that Sinclair kid from Swansea , he looks fine. Tomorrow we'll play against Blackpool , so , if we lose that one , I want Pardew out.
  11. Seriously , the Geordies need a new coach .... Alan Pardew can't win games , it's only fantastic draw or bad loss. We even lost 4-0 to Stoke. Things need to change...
  12. I don't know if anybody said that yet , but Wade Barrett won the Talk The Talk contest at NXT and god ... he was SICK. How can somebody give you a topic about ''wind'' to talk about and transform it in a good way ? Bump his charisma to 79
  13. If you take a look at the match description , the wrestler that has ''Shooting'' ticked will do more striking moves than wrestling ones .
  14. Hey , add a Hate relationship of Ken Anderson with John Cena/Randy Orton , both costed him his job at the WWE.
  15. Oh , and I almost forgot , Jeff is signed with TNA , he just needs to end the process that he'll be back in the squared circle.
  16. Oh , and I almost forgot , Jeff is signed with TNA , he just needs to end the process that he'll be back in the squared circle.
  17. I think you should add RVD , his hiring was already confirmed a couple of days ago.
