Let's put it this way Newcastle are a million times better than Sunderland, and you can try argue that all your indivisual players are better than ours ( but the majority of people would say you mackems are deluded ) but we're joint fourth for now and 9 points clear of you lot. Once you finish above us, come back and claim your players are better than ours.
Different players, it's easy to look at a winger and say it should be all about assists, but Jonas adds so many different qualities to our dynamic team. Plus Jonas has been doing it in the PL for 3 years not 3 months.. But Mclean has great potential not taking anything away from him.
As mentioned above, they are different types of players, when Jonas is up for it he is very good, havn't seen much of McClean but what little I have, he has looked decent (good goal yesterday)
Would say Jonas, he has much more to his game then McClean. Got an assist today which is good, since he spent most the season tracking back to defend Raylor's mistakes. Jonas/ Santon are starting to make up a good partnership like Jonas/ Enrique. I do like McClean though and I think he will be the biggest threat in the Derby, good player.
McClean looks quality but he's only been playing for yous lot for two months. Jonas is brilliant, great engine, works hard, keeps the ball, wins freekicks, can cross can dribble. He's one of our most valuable players. If you don't see him week in week out you can't properly judge him.
We give you an 11 game head start. You've had your manager all season - we started the season with Steve Bruce. Since O'Neill took over there isnt a side in the country better than us. A million times better eh? Yet still only 9 points ahead of us and in 5th (not joint 4th as Chelsea have a better gd). Our first choice striker has been out all season as well..
im sure maradona was quoted as saying that jonas was one of the 1st names on his team sheet. says a lot when you have the likes of tevez, messi, cambiasso, aguero. Nuff said
Yeah, I understand people who don't support Newcastle not thinking he is that good, but when you watch him week in week out, he is great. Hardworking, clever player.
stoke game springs to mind. Would we have got 3 points in that game if it wasnt for jonas. I dont think so.
