Maybe he is shot. He hasn’t exactly impressed at the euros

Who are the 5 Newcastle players? Hall, Miley, Tino is 21 dunno if he counts

£110k it cost him. What a bellend

Annoying thing is Neto would be absolutely ideal if it weren’t for the injury concerns

Gonzalez is a good shout

Would love Cunha. Neto would be a huge leap of faith on his injuries. Get the feeling no matter who the RW will be I’ll be underwhelmed.

I don’t know who it is but it seems you don’t like any source

Yasir Al-Rumayyan was adamant that Ashworth would only be allowed to leave on Newcastle’s terms, as he felt personally affronted by the professions of ignorance, a feeling exacerbated by what he regarded as Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s insulting first compensation offer of £2m. @MattHughesMedia

Easy now lads

FWIW claims in here we got £10m for Ashworth

I’ll happily hold my hands up and say im wrong if that’s the case.

If he’s improved that stuff here fair enough.

It came to me he was important in the signing of Gordon so credit for that but I’m sorry he oversaw 4 transfer windows and left us in the shit PSR wise. Ashworth had a huge part in bringing Anderson to the club did he? Interesting if you are giving him credit for bringing those players to the club then he must take some blame for the overspending and being in such a big PSR hole that we need upwards of £70-80m

I’ve never raved about him when he was here. Brighton are doing more than fine without him and I’m sure we will too. what is the biggest thing he’s achieved at Newcastle according to the article?

Ashworth comes across as a liability. Brighton fans think his success there was massively over exaggerated and I can’t point to many good things he’s done at Newcastle. He messed up Joelinton’s contract talks, he had obvious friction with the manager and he over saw a couple of transfer windows that saw us over £50m in the hole for PSR and that doesn’t even include the Tonali fiasco

While this is true a lot of the work wasn’t getting done. Like no one was out looking for sponsorship deals for example

Isn’t that enough to get excited and want to see what he can do?

Some people just like being miserable I guess we’ve managed to get a much sought after guy. Man Utd wanted him for their head of recruitment. It’s well reported he’s done good work every where he is went. Just enjoy a key position being filled by someone that is by all accounts very good.

Certainly sounds like this is the defender we want

Always good to read stuff like this

he left Monaco in October last year
