At least by the sounds of it, it does seem like the players will be allowed to move off the ball, and make a new move after the pass has been released. For De Jong and Wijnaldum it's natural for them to run in to the box as well. Usually we had f*** all in there when a ball came in

I remember reading somewhere when he talked about character, saying that he wants player who always look for the ball and want it instead of hiding.

I like players with a suspect attitude tbh. As long as they perform. Would not mind Thauvin as his playing style reminds me a lot of HBA

Serbian war criminal is probably out hunting people.

Probably paying up front as well.

Yeah i've been thinking the same. Maybe he also means people that have the kind of character that makes them able to perform at the big stage as well.

Linked with Mario Lemina as well. Central midfielder (defensive)

He has better pace and acceleration than Cabella, but also a questionable attitude. Probably more suited to play really wide. Most punchable face ever as well

Yeah something like that. Imagine if he had signed for us and "played" under Pardew. He would be sitting at Mcdonalds in Nice with Hatem

They say that he's received a knock in training.

Straight swap was mentioned yesterday, cannot see it happen, but him going there on loan sounds more likely if anything. OM need players so it's not impossible that they demand Cabella on loan. Told by who? withabrick..

#heard Does he know stuff?

Add a quality left back to that and i'd be very happy and excited about this season.

Sp. Anderlecht news ‏@Sporting_AND 2 minför 2 minuter sedan Visa översättning The only thing standing between Mitrovic and Newcastle is the player's dad. #rsca #nufc

No, his brothers last name is Poulsen.

Mitrovic brother doing a tour (did), obviously to try and steal Captain Colbacks jersey! Some big stars shirts in the background http://www.dhnet.be/sports/football/division1/anderlecht/le-frere-de-mitrovic-en-touriste-a-newcastle-photos-55a151d63570e4598ce284a6

Do Porto usually spend a lot on players? I know that they sell them for a high price after a couple of seasons. Did sign Imbula for around 20m euros recently..

From twitter "Belgium media reporting Mitrovic's dad blocking move due to wanting his son to play European football for FC Porto" http://www.sudinfo.be/1330614/article/2015-07-12/anderlecht-ezekiel-en-bonne-voie-pour-rejoindre-les-mauves-mitrovic-bloque-par-s?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

We've been linked with him before. This time it was in The Mirror i think. Would love it, but absolutely no chance on Lacazette. He didn't even wanna come before his amazing season that he just had. Would be expensive as f*** as well. Without knowing, i can imagine that Rüdiger would like to stay in Germany for at least another season, at a better club than Stuttgart. Would be wise. Atletico Madrid interested to name one, probably lots of big clubs are.

This Antonio Rüdiger sounds very promising, but apparently Stuttgart are demanding 18m euros for him if Wolfsburg fans are to be believed. Huge fan of Arsenal he says.

I hope that he makes Janmaat captain. Wijnaldum as Vice Captain.

I will miss the passion and swearing and fistpumping though.

Can't say i'm convinced either tbh. A while ago i mentioned that it feels like there aren't THAT many quality strikers out there, while also being realistic options. Of course there's good players out there but somehow it feels like most are either not good enough or unrealistic. I struggle to come up with options of strikers that i'd really really want us to sign (that we can attract) Like the middle bracket that we could get.
