Ok then sw88 do you think the loss today was down to bigi?

Oh go on then, if you insist :)

It wasn't down to him solely; Ricketts - poor. Ramage - Stiull not sure what he offers (yes, only after 2 games ive made that judgement). Cole - Anonymous. Hunt - not the best of debuts and just seemed to want to win set pieces whenever he lost possession.

All that said, as the thread is on Bigi - Poor passing ability, concedes possession 80 - 90 % of the time, hasn't figured we are no longer a team that go backwards at every opportunity, goes missing too much, and almost like a little kid at times whos playing in his local team and lets excitement get the better of him.

So, in answer to your question, no it wasn't ​just down to him although he did play a considerable part.

He concedes possession 80% of the time he gets the ball, is that right? Or could you be wrong?

It might not be factual, and a figure plucked from thin air, but I would say its quite accurate (but then I'm bias towards my own opinion).
Then you opinion is wrong and i think you, in all honesty, know that.

Absolutely!

When he first came back I had high hopes for him. Still do, as he is still young. I'm just not sure of his best position and rather we'd tried another player today to replace Fleck as he certainly isn't anywhere near the mould of Fleck. And once we get his preferred positon sorted, bring him back; give him another go.

Tis has nothing to do with blaming hin for today, just simply that he isn't good enough. Never had been and imo never will be.

Didn't think he played too badly today. A couple of over hit crosses but that was the only thing I thought he did wrong. It was noticeable that the first time he overhit a cross that there were a few itching to jump on any mistake he made and they did it with aplomb
If we're looking for people to blame then we need to look at Sam Ricketts today. Had a shocker for the first and just gave up ( as in just stood there whilst the Southend player ran off with the ball) on a misplaced pass (not from Bigi) allowing Southend to break away and earn a penalty. Add to that various misplaced, overhit and underhit passes and you have a pretty good reason as to why we lost. I'd go as far as to bring Phillips back in at right back after todays show.

Personally I don't see the hype.

Poor in every game so far.Offers little and I don't know if he has been told to play that way or if it natural. Far to deep with slow turgid sideways passing.

Every player can have the odd bad game too. Whats reason for his singling out today? He is not John fleck, we all know that, does that make him bad?

No ones singled him out just for today. Who are you, his dad?

People were raving about him before he went. Some couldn't see the hype then, it was more Bigi the brand than Bigi the footballer.

How has no-one singled him out when this thread is about him and sending him back to newcastle?

I said no one has singled him out based on one performance. We can't send him back, There is no recall clause.

This is very harsh!! I've just come back after heading to a pub for more beers, Bigi was not good granted but he continued to be brave requesting the ball! perhaps

Are you speaking for others now or yourself? and your quite right we couldn't recall him back to newcastle, we could send him back though.

He said some nice things about Cov once, moves him into the criticism immune box. Sheffers spent years in there

You never went to the Bradford game then.

I obviously missed his one and only good game.Our strengths this season have been built around pace.We have lost that for some reason now and Bigi slows it down even more.We can all look pretty playing deep with simple sideways passing but Mowbray must take some responsibility to get something from him if he wants him as a regular.Not just Bigi but Murphy is well off his hame also,so much better running at players on the wing imo.
