  1. Hopefully we haven’t ended up wasting time this late in the window. Sounds like we didn’t even bid until quite recently.
  2. Here’s hoping that it’s something like £25m plus 15m in add ons when his face goes from 2D to 3D in a few years.
  3. You’re right it’s not gonna happen in this window. Especially not Maddison. One question though, what difference would it make buying Maddison now instead of in the summer? FFP wise I mean. Not a difference afaik.
  4. Tickets are sold out unfortunately.
  5. As if someone would offer you a new job mate
  6. Not very surprising really because we have been/are in need of quality players. Maddison for example, why not longing for him until it’s done or over. Think most folks know that it won’t happen in January though. Also what football is an about too, wishing for improvement. Some people get to really like a player for various reasons. I was the same with Kluivert to name one. Even if to a much bigger degree than anyone has been for Paqueta or Maddison.
  7. So what? why Stay when even threatened. Let him allow to take a new job instead of asking for silly amounts.
  8. So what? He wants to go but they probably ask for ridiculous money which isn’t close to fair.
  9. It’s not gonna be 60m! If it was then it would have been done days ago.
  10. You know him? All I know is that he’s a cunt on the pitch at times.
  11. Or he can be rightly pissed off if they are asking for silly money refusing to let him go. Then I can understand he’s doing what he can. This is coming from me who dislikes the 2D faced cunt.
  12. I reckon it won’t be long until they can fold him together and send him to Tyneside in an envelope.
  13. I assume that he hasn’t been out 1st choice. Otherwise why wait until the end of January before trying properly.
  14. They can loan him if they give us Leao and Theo for 10m
  15. I despise the cunt. However I’m absolutely certain that IF he signs then I will convince myself that he will do well, which isn’t totally impossible. I’m pretty certain that all the “hate” goes out the window once/if he does sign. Fickle as fuck tbh. One thing to add. Never ever forget how massively important the environment is to a player, never mind a young one. That can totally change a player’s performances and belief. That simple change of scenery can really kickstart a player and if things start going reasonably well then it’s very often onwards and upwards from there. Can never say for certain in this case. But no matter what club/league how often has a player completely transformed over night? Many many times. Personally I wouldn’t go for him but it could prove to be a great signing even if we don’t see it now. Eased in, in a new positive environment where everyone is pulling in the same direction. an environment that isn’t chaotic and toxic and stressful. Good vibes all around can make a player so much more relaxed. Small steps forward can snow ball into very fast development.
  16. Aye, but it’s also not very easy to always be very very good looking.
  17. Alright. I thought it was like an initial 38 rising to around 60. Cheers.
  18. Pretty certain that Luis Diaz cost much much more than that.
