Opposite for me. Why risk signing a player to a 2/3 year contract that is prone to injury. To much of a risk. At least with loan players you can send them back. Also Murphy imo is a much better player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I'm wrong but do people base him being injury prone off of the 6 week spell he had out with us last season? Has he had any other injuries?

Has he had any other injuries? He only made 9 apps for us and the rest of the time was injured. The lad is 23 years old and has played 54 first team games (according to wiki) not sure if that shows he was injured or just not deemed good enough.

Mat-Owl Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Perhaps with Strudwick at the club Aaron's fitness could improve and be less prone to injury? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agentwalker Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 People might say Arrons is lightweight but IF he'd have stayed fit last season I think we'd have sneaked into the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouncing Owl Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 He’s a good player is Aarons. He is injury prone but a player the Geordies rate more than Murphy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stocksyuto Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Whatever happens we are clearly targeting a winger before the transfer window shuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it seems people are saying he's injury prone because he missed a few last season, his career on the whole would suggest not though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beighton Owl 87 Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 A lot of Newcastle fans are disappointed if the rumour is true as they were expecting him to be in the starting XI this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quist Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 When Aarons and Lazaar arrived they both came with reputations which included being difficult and sick note problems. Lazaar was it when arrived made wonderful impression and was then injured he came back in last couple of games of season but was not at original speed. When Aaarons arrived he was not fully fit and he improved each game and was starting to look good when got injured and we never saw again. This unfortunately some up the entire careers of these two individuals who have shown promise and then get injured or have fall out and never play. Both are a risk and if you have a choice of a player who has good fitness record or one that does not you go for one with good fitness record. I would go for Murphy he is a proven match winner at this level and has done it regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IstillhateSteveBould Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Aarons is a class player imo. Real quality at this level. It’s a shame his injury problems mean he’s a big risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Aarons; Murphy, Lazaar and Gayle on loan as part of the compo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAWAWUTO17 Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 2 hours ago, CadTheOwl said: We only liked him because he was the only player pacey. He wouldn't be the only pacey outlet now and I think we would soon find, he isn't that good at all. He's very very average so would rather stay away at this moment in time and try and look elsewhere, especially as he hasn't got a great fitness record. Spot on. Compare him to the impact Kadeem Harris has had. Different levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he was coming back from a long term injury hence them sending him out on loan to get fitness. Then got a knock with us, happens a lot after long injuries as we are proof. Thought it was an ACL or something like that but happy to be corrected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
