You're wrong, the handful of games he played under Jose were mainly at LB. And if I'm not mistaken the first game he played LB was also against Norwich.

I stand corrected. I was actually hoping Kenedy is not another player that Jose turned into defensive one

I think the circumstances forced him to play him there, but no excuses considering he sold Luis and Bertrand, so yeah...

Up in Newcastle this evening ready to sort his loan move out.

That Norwich game was under Hiddink tho.

He played both Norwich games at LB.

Many great LB's are failed wingers, Kenedy at LB was the one thing Jose got right in that disaster period, it's the only position he has a chance of a decent career.

We bought him with the intention of using him as a winger. It will be interesting to see where Benitez deploys him during his time there.

Its pretty obvious hes a 'lad' with a typical English sense of humour. I'm glad that he's managed to turn his career about no matter where he ends up. He obviously meant no harm with his comments in China but you know what us 'lads' are like specially sitting on the end of one of these bloomin boxes.

I had some hope of him being really good when he first signed but then again I do with each new signing. Its sad that he couldn't have had a good run of games but in our presure pot of a club its very difficult. Yet Baks gets loadsa chances. He MAYBE is turning it around.

Good luck to the lad. Lets see how it goes.

Kenedy on loan to Newcastle is done, should be announced anytime. Oh and on what Conte said in his PC earlier that he's ready to work with an academy player or a new player....It will be a new player, that player being Palmeri, no way he trusts an academy boy and puts faith in them as back up to Alonso.

Right on cue...

[manpe 10,857]

Board jumping the gun? Why are we making enquiries for a LB with only a few days left in the window having already loaned out our only backup? Stupid, dumb, foolish unless Palmieri is already closed, which I doubt considering Di Marzio reports.

[Special Juan 27,104]

It's seriously looking that way right now.

Thats prime Kenedy right there!

[manpe 10,857]

Surely he didn't say that? It has TrollFootball markings, probably just trolling.

He actually said most of it and some just couldn’t resist. Still it’s hilarious.  👇🏻

Won a penalty for newcastle, which was missed by Joselu, later on he made an assist for their 1-0 win. I haven't watched the match, be he either has played as wing-back, either as a winger in 4 man mid.

They drew 1-1, he played on the left side of midfield.

He played really well. Hit the post too. I honestly can't see why he wasnt given more playing time here. Must be something behind closed doors that managers see in him that obviously we cant. For me, given the game time, he could have challanged Alonso for that wingback position.
