Well I guess that's why Burke got his promotion to the England set-up!
It is baffling the size of the squad we had, a vast collection of overpaid mediocrity that probably did add up to a lot of money, though none of that can be laid at Hughton's door - one long contract Kayal, thank you great...
Too small to play central striker, Best in his Newcastle form would have been good but we got a player out of form and possibly over the hill. But if you think that was Hughton's first choice let's get real - we need the board to back our manager rather than blame him for the very limited...
My son's favourite player but let's be honest we saw enough of him to know he's not going to make a transforming difference to the team. A clever support player rather than a consistent goal scorer. Bring him back by all means but we need two better players to compete for that central striker slot.
