  1. This is all just some Newcastle fan's FM save and we're just living in it.
  2. It's my presiding memory of his time with us tbh, he doesn't seem to have much movement when we're in possession. Hoping it's just fitness related.
  3. Probably our most underrated player, those percentiles are nuts.
  4. Fbref rates Willock so highly tbf
  5. Glad this is over with, was becoming a bit of a Dirk Kuyt-esque sort of saga, sans the confirmation from the club that we're interested/monitoring all the time.
  6. This guy is fairly clueless tbh :/
  7. I hope this wasn't one of the images in @gbandit's Google search
  8. Not gonna have to buy him any more at the outset of any new FM games
  9. Fuck, imagine just being able to show the first 22 minutes of that match to any potential new signing
  10. David Tennant would be a bit left-field mind.

    Oh for sure, I'm not trying to be a revisionist here and suggest it was the norm. But moving forward as we seemingly look to play a more possession-based system and we have to break down teams that park the bus, Isak is so clever on the ball and dropping into pockets he's gotta be starting there for me. But I don't think he'd do well when he's pushing back the defensive line himself when we're already camped in the opposition half. Spearhead of the attack on the break, give and go, but can come deep when we're up the field is how I see him playing to his strengths.

    I remember he also had some really good games when he dropped deep when were in possession, allowing midfielders and wingers to bomb on.

    Isak should be up front, it's his best position and we're better as a team with him there imo. Sheer amount of games will mean Wilson and he will share minutes up front, I don't think starting with Wilson & Isak is the way forward.
  14. Is there room for interpretation in the last sentence?
  15. Surprised PIF haven't tested the water with something stupid like a £100m bid for Maxi from one of their Saudi-based clubs. FFP bites the dust...
  16. This is a complete fantasy land signing. I can't believe this. If we can pull this one off, there's almost no-one I can't imagine us targeting. He's absolute quality and Milan born and bred. I thought he'd be their next mainstay, a la Maldini.

    For every silver lining..
