Didn't manage to see the game today but amazing result.
How was Janseen?
And really dissapointed to hear the Sissoko ratings/feedback. Did he play CM or RAM and were there any positives at all? Do we think it's a case of him needing time to bed in or have we spunked £30mil?
He had a few outstanding performances for Newcastle and looked qualify for France, I never thought he was worth £30 mil but I was excited that we were signing someone with attributes our squad lacked such as pace, power and directness which would especially be helpful when Demebele is out like today. We got the win but dissapointed to hear Sissoko was so bad...
Any rational feedback please, what was good what was bad?
He played on the right for most of it. His passing was poor, he kept running into players, and barely made any runs. Just didn't look interested. I think he'll still be a useful player for us, but this was a sign of the inconsistency that Newcastle fans lamented.
Janssen did well for the first goal, and made a couple of good runs, but generally was very quiet.
