James

He already has a thread from summer I thought?

Isn’t Miggy a Newcastle fan too (Goal) or did I imagine it?

Nick Pope Ipswich

Bet Rafa has watched all our games, twice, partly as he will be so impressed with Howe, and partly in case someone wants to ask him for his informed position on how we are doing.

He’s not an elite player but I’m accepting that we are still at a stage where we will sign an eclectic bunch of players and of all the PIF signings to date he is slap bang on the middle ability wise. However his style of play and the fact that he plays in our weakest position in LW I am extremely confident that the defences that managed to contain us recently will be completely rattled and scattered by this addition once he is up to speed. Then we can sell him to Chelsea for double the price in two years time.

I’d say Longstaff is in the top 3 players most likely to still be here in three seasons time. He won’t be a starter, but he will be here.

Joelinton isn’t a left winger we are just muddying through in that position as Murphy is too inferior and ASM is too thick. it’s the weak link in the team that we need to fix

ASM was in my opinion player most at fault for the Pope save, a really heavy pass back to Botman under pressure. His football IQ is just too low which is why he won’t be around much longer.

Mid table teams are now parking the bus against us at home. this is just another stage of our progress

Just watched the clips. I think he fills a weakness our team has and that Howe would make him better. So I hope we pull it off

I did it to stop you starting a thread and killing it to be honest

Reading between the lines, it is clear that Lee Charnley having found the Forest fax machine, now knows somewhere that he can fax transfer offers to. expect a £12m bid for Jeff Hendrick by end of week.

certainly just one in the PL and it was an accidental bounce off his arse

He is cup tied

Think of the wage savings

I’m not keeping up. Next prediction: Wout Weghorst

Going to predict Joao Pedro

Suppose there is a question mark on whether Isak can consistently lead the line in his own or whether he will end up as a support striker. Im sure Howe knows what he wants to do and whether we need a third striker.

Definitely is good business sense to hopefully claw a few million back now. Ashley would have just let him depreciate.

Howe, the coaches, and everyone who joined us in January 22 are heroes in my eyes as they could have all done a runner.

and yet the only regulars who haven’t scored for us this season are Botman and Pope

We’d have to sign another striker for this to happen

what about the time you changed your username as you kept getting called ‘H from Steps’

I’m reluctant to get involved in these threads, I’m reminded of the self defecator from the forum’s long gone history who set up a thread to ask people where they came from, and then proceeded to use that info until he got banned to explain to people that because they were born the wrong side of the Tyne they had no right to an opinion.
