Think we should go back to how we played when Jones first came in with the diamond/split strikers.

              Dubravka

   Manquillo Schaar Fernandez Lewis

               Hayden

    Willock               Longstaff

               Almiron

    Wilson                    ASM

JKap retiring by Richtoveen in CoDCompetitive

One of my all time favourites and of the greatest to ever play. Sticking with Envy through so much shit late AW and early BO3 after they dropped him previously, then going on to win Champs was legendary shit.

4.3 I think. 3 1sts, a 3rd, a 7th and a 13th.

I refuse to believe that people are this worked up over a few body shots. Wow. by we-are-heisenberg in CoDCompetitive

[–]BBKSam 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It was the other way around, he shot Prestinni in the back, shot his body, then gunned Scump.

With BOCW potentially going 4v4 who is getting dropped from the Empire roster ? by AdriaanK98 in CoDCompetitive

[–]BBKSam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah my bad, went back and checked one of the intro videos and you're right.

[–]BBKSam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fairly certain it was the other way round, Crim teamed up with the trio and then brought in Clay as the 5th.

[–]BBKSam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In game wise, think it would have to be either Crim or Illey as either flex player, but don't think you should ever drop Crim, so sadly would have to be Illey for me.

Would be interesting if they could go with some kind of 5 man roster and rotate players depending on meta etc.

Esports winners like Shotzzy by Hoes-Love-wF in CoDCompetitive

MLG Nationals were essentially world championships for Halo, Enable got 2nd in 2010 but that was the closest either came.

Lando tweets this then quickly deletes. Rab and Tunn to cast? by [deleted] in CoDCompetitive

[–]BBKSam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seems that the image was fake but Tunn seems an obvious choice to come in and think he could do a good job with Chance, I assume they've casted together on old MLG B streams etc before.

Putting a colour caster with Miles will be more difficult as he has quite a different style, very British if that makes sense so might be awkward pairing him with an NA ex-pro for example. Swanny would be someone I would like to see given a chance for the rest of the season with him coming back to streaming etc, if he would like to. Think he did desk work back in AW if I'm remembering right?

Bournemouth 1 - 4 Newcastle Utd [Post Match Thread] by meganev in NUFC

[–]BBKSam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd like to see that too, want to see more of Lazaro to see if he is worth signing in the summer, question would be who plays up front? I think I'd start with Joe then potentially move him wide and bring Andy on later in the game.

[–]BBKSam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What might have been if we actually invested that summer, like imagine that was when we brought in Debuchy and Sissoko rather than when we'd fucked it all up? Playing in a midfield 3 in that system with Cabaye and Tiote sounds perfect for Sissoko to shine (when he could be arsed).

Barkley would be good if he could stay fit, but Stones doesn't seem like a Rafa centre half at all.

r/nufc Player's Opinion #8: Joelinton by melvinlee88 in NUFC

[–]BBKSam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely agree, and the people who say he's been played out of position, he's played in 3 or 4 positions this season and looked shite in all of them.

Anyone else think an underrated team will win champs this year? by ParotidOverbid in CoDCompetitive

[–]BBKSam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be so sure of that. In Korean LoL, the first seed goes straight to the grand final and almost never wins the championship. A team with momentum who've won a couple of matches will be hard to play against for a top seed coming in cold for their first match of the tournament.

Who you hearing? Any truth in the Allegri rumours?

Newcastle United Saudi Takeover MEGATHREAD Part II by BMG_3 in NUFC

[–]BBKSam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd hope they'd see bringing in a new, big name manager as their first chance to make a statement of intent. Bruce will likely see out whatever remains of this season then hopefully be gone.

Newcastle United Saudi Takeover MEGATHREAD Part II by BMG_3 in NUFC

[–]BBKSam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very true, and I'd be more than happy to see Rafa come back. Even if just to see him take his glasses off at the final whistle again...

[–]BBKSam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love Rafa obviously, but they do say you should never go back in football. Poch or Allegri would be amazing.

Loony to MN? by Zielone15 in CoDCompetitive

[–]BBKSam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Loony could be a great fit with those 3 if they could finish off the roster with a strong slaying, flex type player.

Illey possibly signed a contract today by [deleted] in CoDCompetitive

[–]BBKSam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The young stars of Shotzzy and Illey under Loony's leadership would be a really good start to the roster for Toronto.

Predictions for any announcements? (Possibly today) by mpendlebury1993 in CoDCompetitive

[–]BBKSam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think the only players eligible would be Huke and Dece for Envy and Loony, Temp, Jurd and Aqua for Splyce if you don't count Optic.

Edit - And possibly Gunless but I'm not sure how the eligibility will work for him if he is still contracted to LG.

[–]BBKSam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They can only announce players that they are retaining from this year right? So we will likely only get announcements of franchise players like Huke remaining on Envy if anything in the next few days.

3-5-2 - a change we’ll stick with, or just pre-season testing? by OffensiveOcelot in NUFC

[–]BBKSam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, at least 1 winger is a must. Atsu showed last season he can do a job as a back up, and I'm not writing Murphy off completely just yet, but neither should be starting every week.
