Has Phil Thompson lost the plot?

Cheers, Ardj, for reminding me what a magnificent call I made on Wijnaldum when he was almost universally panned by people on here. Everyone’s an idiot, apart from me

Don’t thank me. Thank NV it’s his game, I’m just playing along. @cloggypop was a fan as well from memory, I spent days arguing with him re his “natural position”. 

[moof]

Aye, cloggy knows 

[Bjornebye]

I didn't want us to sigh Salah. I was pretty pissed off we got him at the time as well. 

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

I never wanted Stewart Downing. I was fucking right. Yay me.

[magicrat]

I never wanted Balotelli. No other fucker did either, even Rogers

That fucker had a song before he even kicked a ball for us. Has Henderson even got a proper one yet? 

 

EDIT: I called Van Dijk when he was at Celtic. Pretty sure I said we should sign Mane after he destroyed us but then again so did every other person who saw that game. 

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

Just sing Hendo to Biko by Gabriel.

Back on track then. Thommo out for a pre Xmas bevy with the lads in the Slaughterhouse.

Those were the halcyon days. You: convinced he was a #10. Everyone else: No, he's going to be a central midfielder. Even after the hilarious, Heaton, Maguire, Jeff Hendrick shouts throughout the years, that Wijnaldum thread was your best work.

Well since he posted about him the first time around, clubs have paid £92m for him. That’s pretty impressive!!

Now it’s turned into an amnesty thread!

 

By the way, why does ardja keep using “lol” and “he he” seemingly unchallenged?

Was thinking that myself, the daft twat.

Paul's thread on the MF should not, and will not, be forgotten.

It's still not on the fucking wing.

Well I had Transfermarkt and WhoScored backing me up. He only played two games at CM for Newcastle.

Both Heaton and Maguire turned out to be pretty good calls IMO.

That's because Newcastle are clueless wankers though.

The whole point was to forecast what position he was going to play for us, not to Google where he had mostly played before. Anyone could have done that themselves. That's what people were trying to tell you.

I really don’t want to go through this again. I got it wrong with Gini, I thought he’d be a waste of money and now he’s one of my favourite players.

If you’d only dropped these citations earlier I’m fairly confident the matter would have rested by now.

Yeah, I almost wish I hadn’t bumped this out of nowhere. Sorry about that. I’ll think twice before a spread a discussion into other threads without valid reason in the future
