My NUFC - Why I loved Laurent Robert NUFC
My Newcastle United – Why I loved Laurent RobertHere at The Mag we have introduced a new feature, asking a number of our regular / irregular contributors to write about a past Newcastle United player that they liked / loved for whatever reason, not necessarily the best player they have ever seen.
Robert was a star. If he’d been an at Man Utd, who were the dominant force then, the acclaim would have been universal. He was great for assists too.One of the reasons I chose Laurent is the simple fact that in my time going to games at St James’ Park and seeing a player live, I can’t remember many who could strike a football so hard. It was simply breathtaking execution at times, and, looking back, maybe I took it a bit for granted.The Reunion Islander was an immense talent.
In fairness, Souness still managed good performances from Robert, that can’t be denied, but the direction of travel in the 2004/05 season was one of heading towards the exit door. It was never clear why that happened, rumours at the time of a 3/10 merit mark from a previous game, or was it a comment piece by John Gibson which debated the pros and cons of Robert in the side?Hand on heart, on ability would your player get in this current Newcastle United team that will play in the new season?
