If you choose what to believe in the media, Jedi was a victim of Pardew's dressing room leaders purge.

And certainly released in favour of the more ' expansive ' style of play that we have been treated to.

To get ( if we did ) £3-4m was an offer that made sense for us to accept.

But he wasn't replaced like for like on the pitch in either a positional sense or a leadership role that extends beyond that.

Big mistake.

I'd love to see him back, but fear that he wouldn't deliver as expected.

And I don't want his name tarnished.

Very much this. I would take the risk though. We know hes not the most gifted of players but he certainly has what this side is missing in heart, drive, leadership and breaks up the play better than most. He would bring so much to the group.

People are saying that he wasn't in the team. That doesn't mean that he shouldn't have been in he team, because he should have been. The team was being selected by a buffoon who dropped him not because he wasn't good enough but because of political reasons. If Jedi comes back then we could survive. He's that important a player.

He wasn't fantastic under Pardew because Pardew didn't understand how to use his talents. Pardew had him chasing down balls like McArthur instead of allowing him to sit in front of the back 4 like we know he does brilliantly.

No thanks.


^^ This. He was poor for a couple of seasons before we sold him. Not worth trying to re-sign him although we definitely do need a Jedi type leader.

What a wasted opportunity. Not in re-signing him, but the topic name, should have been "Return of the Jedi". Sloppy work.

 


Most certainly not European.

He wasn't poor at all. You've got selective memory. He was voted the best defensive midfielder in Europe and one of the best overall midfielders.

If he looked '' poor '', I would suggest that was down to the change in playing style that Pardew introduced.

BS isn't going down that road, to quote Steve Parish, it's '' time to wind the dial back ''.

If Jedi is brought back to the club to play in the position he knows best and in a less open style, then this potential move could work out.

As a club we have a bit of a history of bringing back players for second spells. (Andy Gray, David Hopkins,AJ, Wilf,Derry.) It rarely seems to work. Only Wilf and Derry spring to mind s a success and I would discount Wilf as he left when very young.

The old adage 'Never go back,' springs to mind. Old warriors are mostly just that, old. We need new champions now.

Opta ratings Casual old boy. Can't beat that system. May have only been for a month or a period of time but it happened. So the bloke stating he was crap is a big liar liar pants on fire.
