Mehrdad might want to think twice about his next "welcome to the family" tweet... that means an entirely different thing in Italy.

Because I can't fucking take it going on any longer.

Was thinking more from a league standpoint. They wouldn't have finished top 4 in the PL but I reckon of you asked your average Milan fan, they'd be convinced they would.

Italy play again on Sunday, so we will want it wrapped up before then.

If his agent is back in Milan, it must just be medicals.

I'm sure he was upset, for like a minute, until he realised he was getting 3 times the wages, to play in the best league in the world and to play alongside the sexiest midfielder known to man. Once he arrives on Tyneside and he gets one of Brunos hugs, he will soon realise he's made the right choice. Then he hears his reception from the Gallowgate and he will say "AC who?".

Italians are so weirdly defensive over the state of their football. When we had MA, at least we understood why players continually moved on to better things. It's seems Milan are still holding onto that hope that things can return to the glory days.

Tell Milan Milan He won't be home for tea He wants to play for Eddieeee Tell Milan Milan....

Romano saying no announcement today. Has to be bullshit. Bound to see him in a toon shirt.

Mind, there's not a fucking chance in hell that Tonali ever thought he would be joining us. I'd love it if we find out that we have been tracking him for 12 months or some shit.

The saying goes, everyone has their price. You think if someone sticks a 25m plus bid in for Miggy we aren't selling?

How nice is the though that a black and white shirt is likely getting a private jet into Romania?

Fuck sake. So tommorow then? I'm an impatient cunt. Makes you wonder if this will be a quick once over.

What time they arriving in Romania? Just want to see him in a Newcastle shirt and I can rest easy.

You know what's naughty.... that I think Chiesa is doable.

Be crazy if we started going mental with signings.

Chiesa would be fucking unreal.

You know when you watch Modric or Pirlo it was always like "this fucker is playing his own game here", everything becomes calm and simple. That's what he's looked like to me in this game. Doesn't seem to fuck about with extra touches, just smooth and controlled.

That Caqueret is pure class.

Change it.

How do you know what's inside that thread like?

Definitely want to see a new thread, just so we can see what snappy title we can come up with? Transfer Rumours 8: Rise of the tap-in-merchants.

Football is finished for every club who it is finished for but not the ones who it isn't... Man City = Not finished Leeds, Leicester, Everton= probably finished Man united= wasn't finished in the 90s, definitely finished now, unless they get the takeover and then it's not finished again Football was finished for us 2 years ago... until we got taken over and now it's not finished anymore. When things are going bad for you, blame everyone else, it's the system that's failing you.

I echo the above thoughts... Tidy first half. Seems to have quite a bit of footballing intelligence. Good feet, smart with what he does with it, without being anything like a flair player. He certainly doesn't look right fitness wise, which is odd because he's lightning rapid when it comes to a short sprint. Is it fitness or is it a bit of confidence showing in his play? It's that hands on hips, not really making little movements sort of thing. Of course he's playing in a bit of an alien position tonight. Every now and then he sparks into life and looks a player. If he can just get involved more and show a little more aggression towards demanding the ball.

It was nickson who went and got Bruno.
