Just Edwards covering his arse for looking like a tit thinking we were going for Barella

I'd say it was more a case that Edwards was used, than was in on a club led ploy. The club are fairly decent at that.

Edward’s linking us with Diomande and said confident we get Pedro.

It's about the wage package, not just the weekly wage. You can take 150,000 as long as you defer the extra 60k into the signing on fee, loyalty bonus + benefits. So in that case spurs can easily do it

Was mentioned not long after signing. Think it was Edwards then also. I’ve said before I wouldn’t be surprised if he helps the club with this for occasional exclusive access. Howe likes him.

If I’m honest I’m slightly pessimistic based on the limited info we have. If we haven’t made a signing by the end of June I’ll move to worried status. I’m not sure who is running things in terms of bringing in players at the club right now given all the changes at executive level, and we’re mainly getting linked to players that seem unattainable, or only attainable if we decide to do half the business we need to do. My hope is that we’re doing things on the quiet like we have in the past.

Those £150k wages will end up £200k+ comfortably now.

“Newcastle kept their negotiations with AC Milan for Italy international Sandro Tonali a closely-guarded secret two years ago, deliberately leaking alternative names in order to distract from their ultimately successful attempt to land the midfielder.” First ever confirmation of a smokescreen?

Brilliant book. Although I don't think we have a Rodgers/Benteke situation (yet?), definitely agree that recruitment can't be driven by one person and one style.

If we dont get up to speed later this month, its going against everything Howe said (I dont blame him just to say that).

I hope he realises we don’t need another hero

It's Luke Edwards so its probably all bollocks... https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2025/06/13/newcastle-joao-pedro-pursuit-believe-deal-imminent/ https://archive.is/kNlEg

No reason for him to be playing this tournament.

They won’t go near what Man Utd are offering either.

Spurs on for Mbeumo. This has the potential for hilarity.

Well remembered.

I trust Eddie. He's simply the best

I think there are some understandable concerns about no business yet, although it is early. Having said that we have failed to strengthen in 3 consecutive windows, and after last summers nightmare, I can understand a few doubts amongst us.

We really should get Duran on loan if the rumours are true that he wants out - why can't we make the most of that league like other teams have?

Quansah has already been called up to the senior team.

Heard they were asking 60+ for him

I just have bloody Tina Turner songs going round my head now 😡😂😂

Yep the get out of jail free card Saudis will double whether Liverpool realistically want

Not a lot we can do about it. It's the teams with no PSR shackles that have done a majority of the business.

Brighton signing that Greek kid, and the odd loan made permanent (Todibo, Alcaraz). But not really, no.
