I'm guessing that means he didn't actually sell him the first time, but I can't be bothered to fact cheik. Either way, he did not play all that much for Steve at Twente, and was clearly surplus to requirements.

11-3

Lots of people seem pro Tiote starting, but honestly I'll be surprised if we see him in a NUFC shirt more than a handful of times before he's off in the summer. We've tried to sell him already, we've bought his replacement, as well as a 2nd central midfielder AND a winger that could displace a player that could potentially play centrally. PLUS, we still have super Gouffran to fill the spot if called upon. Steve don't like Cheik, he's sold him once, he'll sell him again.

I don't fancy Disco's chances given Mendes has a £1.25B head start and already has many high profile clients. Sorry Disco, I don't mean to hold you down.

I'd imagine it's only a matter of time before UEFA make up some shit to restrict this player laundering shit. At least, that's what they're there for.... If you want to keep it simple, just make up some transfer limit between teams per year or something. Although I'd be a much bigger fan of a maximum profit percentage per year since purchase. That'd be mint. Would cripple the notion of a stepping stone club too. I'm sure there'd be other side effects, but in my mind it seems like a class idea right now.

Depends if your nose is a moronic fat cunt who is singlehandedly responsible for eroding everything that Newcastle United once was.

if we werent shite to start with 7/10 but we are 4/10

I'd take him on some low risk deal. He's looked like a complete bag of shit for Liverpool, but you never know. Plus he's Jose

Aye, who were NOBODIES until Mou turned them into superstars with that CL win.

You mean a player who has played well everywhere he's played, only to look poor for Liverpool? Probably just doesn't give the slightest shit about your worthless fucking club.

He's fucking terrible. ....

lovely equaliser by burnleh

It's beyond me how businessman mike allows signings like this to happen. If we're not going to fucking play him, don't sign him in the first place. Failing that, just force spineless Steve to actually give the lad a chance. And if he's flouncing and won't play, you try and get someone to work with him and get him out of his rut. Lots of options that you'd imagine such an astute business mind could consider.

he's a baller. needs to sign for the king.

he's a card alright

I reckon we plan to like. I'm expecting 4-4-1-1 from this point forward. Shout at Sissoko until he accepts he's a winger, Andros on the left, Gini behind Mitro.

Need more standups. Daily isn't cutting it. Let's go hourly. More post it notes too.

It was ridiculous at the time too.

Sadly, it's not our decision. He is the one who wants to leave, rightly or wrongly, because of the stick he received at Watford. While I thought that stick was disgusting, I don't think he can hide behind that if he wants to get away. Anyone who has such a fragile temperament has no place at a club like Newcastle anyway. It's a shame because the lad clearly has talent but found the pace of the premier league too fast for his liking. I'm not sure I'm following this at all like, Thauvin has just decided he can't deal with the stick he got and he has to leave so the club are just saying "aye no bother" and spending £12m to replace him then letting him go wherever he wants while presumably still covering his wages to a degree and then maybe flogging him for a massive loss after a few more months? Which is what they just did with Cabella. All seems incredibly one sided to me and I'm rather amazed that the club like Thauvin so much to give him exactly what he wants at the cost of £12m. He must be a really nice kid I guess. Or maybe he just doesn't want to be here, doesn't like being tackled and wants to follow his girlfriend back on the next flight to Paris, Marseilles or whichever stylish French region he hails from. In any case, he's only going out on loan, maybe he will get to try again here next season assuming he's got the appetite for it. The point being it's not a one sided arrangement Tron. It kind of is though isn't it. Being a footballer is no different to having any other job in a lot of ways, and at the end of the day they're just people. In your line of work, would you kick up a fuss and resign / ask for a transfer to a different office etc if you hated where you are? Ah the old compare it to working in an office argument. The only way it's that one sided is if he's gone on strike or refused to play imo. Perhaps you know more about the behind the scenes efforts to integrate the lad but the on field efforts have been laughable, as they have with many other young foreign players we've signed. But aye it could all be them I suppose. He's a fully fledged propaganda spreader at this point.

Luckily that means absolutely nothing. Other than the Spurs fan thinks he's shit. Newcastle fans think Sissoko is shit. How about we give him a chance before we all call him shit? My thinking he's mediocre is not in any way related to how many chances he'll have in the NUFC team, so you needn't worry about that. And his back catalogue of work doesn't just go out of the window because he's signed for NUFC, so I shall continue to be uninspired by him.

Sadly, it's not our decision. He is the one who wants to leave, rightly or wrongly, because of the stick he received at Watford. Yep, no going back now. Couldn't possibly find a way to remedy this situation. He is of course the first footballer ever to have a questionable temperament.
