  1. Not sure about his return date, but kicking a ball doesn’t say too much imo. What takes a long time is to get the knee the stability and strength that it needs so that you can rely on it being strong enough under heavy load as well as well as being able to handle awkward/accidental twists and turns without a setback. That proper stability and reliability is what takes such a long time to get back. Every progress is positive though, even if minor steps alone.
  2. Yeah I don’t like the old cunt.
  3. Yeah probably. Maybe not. Not because of the source, but I still don’t find it impossible to happen.
  4. Not a great source but Harry Redknap has said that he’s heard that The FA will approach Nufc and EH and he thinks he both should and will take it. I don’t want it to happen but IF it’s gonna happen then asap please. Would be gutted but not the end of the world. Club is more important than one man. We move on.

    NUFC Transfer Rumours

    Similar to “Ciao”. Very close to it to my ears at least.

    I just noticed that im blocked by that account so this makes me absolutely certain that it’s a bullshit talking account. I must of said something….

    Lewis Hall

    In the video from the Adidas training center a player passed the ball across the swimming pool and Hall’s first touch to control the ball was some tekkers like One thing doing it on the pitch but standing like that at the edge of the pool looked kind of ridiculous in a good way. Made me think of Foden for some reason.

    Lewis Hall

    100% MUST be 1st choice next season. He has shown more than enough for me towards the end of last season, plus glimpses before that. Unless he gets a few games and is poor both on/off the ball then fine, rotate him, but I don’t see it. What he offers on the ball and in general play outweighs his sometimes weaker defensive attributes. Even his defensive side has gotten better and rather quickly. On the ball he is one of our top three players. I have extremely high hopes for both him and Tonali. I think Hall will kick on from last season and continue to grow even further. Wouldn’t surprise me to see him being one of our POTY contenders. Also want to add to that, he has end product which is massive to have from an “unexpected” position.

    Callum Wilson

    Might as well plan for the season without him. Only way that makes any sense.
  12. I probably wouldn’t even care or be bothered at all. I also wouldn’t have any sort of knowledge or insight regarding other clubs/managers. Imho I think the club wants PM to have most control on recruitment and Howe more focused out on the grass, less control regarding transfers. I don’t think Howe ideally wants lesser control, he might feel that he wants more. This doesn’t mean he’s unhappy or that they won’t be working together and manage to do it very well once “details” and boundaries have been ironed out. He used this interview to say a thing or two, not much wrong in that, but he knew what he was doing. I’m sure all will be well. Pure guess take though, he might have/get lesser control than before, question is how much and if he’s ok with that or not, time will tell. Obviously he’s got to have a say regarding players, especially what type of player. I’m sure PM understands this too.
  13. They definitely are twisting it to their agenda. Having said that I think Eddie has given them a chance by the way he said some things. He knew what he was doing. It doesn’t mean that he is unhappy or leaving.

    Callum Wilson

    People are incredibly naive at times. If (if if if if) Wilson is fit he’s a great player to have blah blah. Absolutely pointless to say if. It’s like saying if Longstaff was as good as prime Zidane then he would be amazing for us. Too early to say anything about Kelly but beforehand it’s been very well known that he is injury prone too, but let’s wait and see, hopefully that’s not the case from now on. Yeah, let’s sign DCL too, he is a very good option according to some (if fit……) Wilson isn’t reliable fitness wise and he NEVER will be. We just have to accept that instead of hoping and thinking maybe.
  15. Overall very positive. Maybe some things didn’t need a mention, maybe it’s better to keep in-house? I mean it might just risk there being unnecessary speculation.
  16. Genuine question, I might be wrong. But didn’t you defend us going for Hall and Livramento? Or maybe that was someone else, like quite a few. Not too dissimilar imo. I’m happy that we have Hall/Tino just to be clear. Despite them not being 1st team choices.
  17. Any idea when the presser is today? 1: Perfect opportunity to write off the talk and show his loyalty to his current club. 2: Not doing so will only intensify talk and imo prove that he’s willing to take the job if offered. Normally EH would kill the talk straight away because he doesn’t want any distractions.

    Paul Mitchell

    Eliesse Ben Seghir is supposedly quite highly rated. Not seen him myself though. Probably not the profile of player we are looking at though since he’s a central attacking midfielder I think.

    Give me more interviews and content or sign some players Paul, thanks! I’m so excited and I get impatient Not a criticism in any way, I just want to see stuff and excitingly drown in content, dreams and hope. We have such great foundations to build on from. Add that top top quality piece by peace and it’s only gonna get better. Bring it on!
  20. Small things, but lovely to see. I’m talking about the Joelinton interview in Germany that was posted today where you could see Tonali walking behind Wilson and putting his hands up on his shoulders. Lovely to see him looking happy, relaxed and settled. He will be amazing this season, I just know it. It’s written in stone.

    NUFC Transfer Rumours

    It’s an embarrassment to humanity. I wish to slap them in the face with a wet leather glove until they pass out.
  22. Did I quote you!?? I was just saying what I think. I see many saying that they are extremely overpaying. Yes it’s a lot of money when you think about the contract expiring. But that’s the way they gotta do it to make the deal happen. It’s not just a random young kid they are signing.
  23. Personally, I’d sure as hell rather do this deal that ManU are doing than DCL for 25m that some on here were very ok with. IF we had done the same deal that these cunts have then I wouldn’t be complaining too much. Id be thinking that this is what it took to beat RM to the signature. Having said that, for the money I would have gone for someone else.
