Bollocks next

It’s a slippery slope, man! (Welcome back)

As long as we get a Turkish forum invasion like when we were trying to sign Anelka from Fenerbahce, I'm in.

Rather him than Elanga. Probably half the price.

Huge yes from me for Yilmaz

Obligatory “Emre” reference incoming

A Turkish source is bound to be right one of these days. HWTL!

Yeah, think we're thinking of the same fella

We've definitely been linked before

Wasn't he linked with us after the decent run that Turkiye had in the Euros? Reminded be a little bit of a Turkish Harvey Barnes in his style of play.

Yeah I remember he looked pleased with himself when he returned

Alex Lawson was a canny player aswell back in the day. His dad was a great man too.

He's 6ft 1 so fits the physical profile

Think this was the bleach-blonde really proactive wide player (right footed, think he played on right but normally plays on left side) who was one of my personal ‘who could we sign’ stand outs from Euros. Seems so long ago!

Is he the lad who is really quick and direct?

Just took much longer to get the ball forward. Batty was brilliant at what he did, however a consequence of that was me often sitting thinking stuff like: ‘have they (opposition) got all their players back behind the ball? Nope not quite yet, any second now, ok now he releases it.’ Felt like what we gained in solidity we lost in rapid attacks.

I vaguely remember the rumours that Mitchell had flown to Turkey last summer to sign him

I've said it before but all the Bedlington lads of my vintage, who played to a decent level, single Jamie out as the best they’ve ever shared a pitch with by a large margin. And given how good some of those were, that’s no mean feat. Alex "Disco" Lawson, will rave about him any chance he gets

Never seen him(Yilmaz) play but his stats are good. Gonna go denis wise him with speakers on mute.

Legs (and hand) have gone.

We all have 20-20 hindsight but I agree with this line of thinking, Batty added more defensive solidity, but we lost a lot of creativity when Clarky was left out

A venue, not a pub, but the Fire Station looks nice and Brandy Clark is playing there for the second time in 2-3 years.

Home Grown striker.

He'd be a shit singing for us but a fantastic one for Liverpool. See Guehi and Gordon.

Standard Turkish press disclaimer. "Newcastle United has made a move to add Barış Alper Yılmaz to its squad. Galatasaray's expectation for this transfer is 30 million euros."
