Same here. But, do think it might be Everton after Lamps fucks them early doors.

You going to stick around here?

Reminds me of Danny Drinkman joining Chelsea. Maybe not as bad, but clearly not the required level for the club. Maybe he proves us all wrong, he has previously as a lot thought he wasn't good enough for NUFC when we tried to sign him when they were in the Championship.

Naa, its a fair pull. Well, I'm hoping a lot, with our very own Dan Ashworth being ceremonially announced . But if Maldini rocked up for talks, selling his club, his vision and started chewing the fat over the art of defending....i'd be giddy.

Sorry, don't know how to say Technically directed by...

Naa. We're miles off Milan; city and club. Such an institute and managed by one of the greatest defenders to grace the game. Easy choice if everything is the same.

It's like NUFC putting out a statement 4 times a season for 10 years that Mike Ashley is actively trying to sell the club.

Nothing wrong with trying. Leicester could stutter again, the wheels could fall off at Wham or Ten Hag massively flops and opens up opportunity. We need to be ready to pounce, I guess that's what you and others are saying. Which is fair enough.

I'd say 8th. Think both Leicester and west ham is a big overtake at this stage of our project. But no point in not having ambition, just hope we don't get to whiny if we aim for it and miss out. 8th would be A- season for me.

I'd be happy to start the season now, tbh. Last season was a rescue job, this season foundation and next season transition. Were a much stronger outfit than the start of last season, and we still have more to come from this squad. ASM was totally out of sorts last time round, Wilson injured for a huge part of it, wood pressured to fill his goals and all players are playing a couple of gears above where they were this time last year. A new keeper as dubs is either injured or flapping, a full season with a proper LB, trippier and Bruno, and we've the likes of Anderson to show what he is made of. Not to mention Burn & Schar partnership is still canny without any bodies coming in. Even Longstaff was turning it around end of season, it probably ended at the wrong time for him. Full season of feel good factor as well whilst progress is made off field. We're easily top 10 atm, anyone else coming in isn't going to push us massively on, not until we can get bigger sponsors in, so an additional place or 2 I'm not concerned about. It's being able to compete and not be a shambles fighting against relegation I'm looking forward to, so if we bring anyone else in from here, I'm honestly floating.

Delighted. I really rate him, way above what we've got.

Good. Fuck agents.

Good luck to him.

Be a real shame if Pope becomes England No1 in time for the World Cup whilst playing for us. Real shame.

Same people whinging about pope were no doubt whinging about burn and targett. Lessons still not learned.

Fair play to him. Hadn't realised it had come out. Hope he gets his head back in the game, for us or someone else.

I like DCL but he seems to suffer from mental health issues (according to gossip, but explain a lot, maybe even some of his lengthy 'injuries') There aren't many out there which go through it and recapture their best form. It's a tough one, but I think at this stage he's worth a punt around the £30m mark and with Ekiteke coming in as well. I don't think we could rely on him and Wilson, knowing out luck both would.be out at the same time.

Probably, if that's where we're heading then don't expect much from the new regime. You'd hope they'd be trying to sell all CB's bar Burn & Schar and trying to find 2 new CB's who can displace them long term.

Bailly is shite. Don't think he'd get in the team tbh.

Wonder what position Mbappe intends to play him?

Haven't been back since

Doesn't get enough airing.

That poster man. Come to Sunderland for Premier league football advertised in the airport the 1 season we went down. ?

Got the word Newcastle in it.
