9 goals in 34 for Newcastle
11 in 37 for Fulham
3 in 27 for Fulham
His prem records
For a main striker to only have 1 season getting into double figures isnt good enough.
One of those players, to good for the championship but struggles with the step up, maybe needs to try a top league outside of england, look at Haller, done well in Bundersliga, struggled with West Ham now doing well with Ajax2 -
For anyone who needs a lift today have some
RONALDO TEARS

Same as Pukki at Norwich, on fire in the championship, damp squib in the prem.paulie8290 said:

Mitro and Pukki are both members of “The Darren Huckerby Zone”5

Fulham were dreadful in the Prem, so 11 ain’t too bad and he’s a better player now than he was when at Newcastle.paulie8290 said:

Own goal as well, Fedor Kudryashov will never be seen again apart from breaking rocks in Siberia.Callumcafc said:Croatia have beaten Russia 1-0 and leapfrog them into first place to qualify for the World Cup. Russia will have to settle for the playoffs.2 -
He was fake limping right before knocking it into his own leg. I perceived this as being due to embarrassment at weakly knocking the ball out for a throw when not under much pressure.eaststandmike said:

He'd had quite a good game until that point, too0 -
Surely, for example, he's as good as the likes of Olly Watkins or Jarod Bowen who've all moved from the Championship to "non yoyo PL club"? Or the likes of Callum Wilson or Benteke?ValleyGary said:

I see Malta had TWO players sent off today within 4 minutes, both for second bookings. I hadn't realised Trevor Kettle refereed international matches as well!4

Crazy how a side with Ronaldo, Bernardo silva, Bruno fernandes, Ruben Dias, Cancelo, Moutinho, Nuno Mendes, Diogo Jota now have to go through a play off.
Loved the Mitrovic celebration, must've been about 30 players and staff on top of him in that corner celebrating.1 -
Washington on the bench for N Ireland tonight, with Magennis a lone striker

Currently Switzerland 2-0 Bulgaria | Northern Ireland 0-0 Italy
If that stays the same then Italy are in the Play-Offs0 -
10-15 minutes for Italy to find something...0

Swiss 3-0 up now... If they score another then even a 1-0 win for Italy will see them in 2nd thanks to lesser Goal Difference - Unless of course the first decider isnt based on that?Callumcafc said:10-15 minutes for Italy to find something...0 -
The NI fans singing “you’re just a shit San Marino”. Good game this5

Would actually be curious to see what happens if Italy do win 1-0 and Switzerland win 3-0.ForeverAddickted said:
