2 AND A HALF MATCHESgreenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread |
There we were 2 and a half games into our Bellamyless patch and Robert plays off Shearers shoulder and we score straight away. How many times did i think, read or hear the notion of using Robert as Bellamys replacement? Did anyone else notice this?

Aye, I did.His movement off the ball was superb - if we play him up front against Ipswich he could score a few.

I wonder whether Bobby is just hell-bent on getting Cort fit? If we are serious about points, then we really need to give the Robert up front thing a go.

I would keep playing Cort in the reserves.I Bobby is hell bent on getting him fit then surely he can arrange a friendly behind closed doors thingy that he did for Shearer?
Watching the match taped today, Cort didn't do as badly as I remembered. He had some decent touches at times, holding the ball up superbly before Robert passed out wide to Solano, back to Robert, who hit the bar. Also a neat header down at the back post, we were unlucky not to score from it. I still think if he gets fit he could be a useful player for us.
