Adama Traore wanted by Chelsea - SSN. Looks like a (very fast) headless chicken to me.

Bugger.

Would be very happy with this. Would certainly help us get promoted.

There are valid reasons for being cold or lukewarm on a potential Townsend return but what does on the pitch certainly isn't one of them. His performances here were the best I've seen from a winger in over a decade, Hatem excluded. Aye - can't fault his effort or performances.

Off to Boro apparently.

Not the greatest review: http://www.insidefutbol.com/2017/01/15/we-expected-more-president-confirms-flopped-newcastle-loanee-means-dipping-into-market-needed/321792/

Zlatan loving it.

Klopp seems especially hyper.

Pep's pet lip will be out again.

Can't remember the last time Citeh lost so heavily in the league.

Wow - what a finish.

Everton 2-0.

My understanding too. Ryder is just showing off that he knows a new expression.

Shit. He's usually on the ball.

Serious?

It's absolutely true. It was weird that he was at the game. He's probably been itching like a motherfucker looking for a way to get his Bobby Hill head back in our minds. Keith Bishop there too which I thought was odd. Guess we'll find out soon.

Rafa has a history of standing up to owners and taking no shit. If this is true I can't see him hanging around. Was hoping for some incoming transfer news tonight - not this.

He'd fuck himself over as well. Hope it's bollocks but you never know with Ashley.

Are they still the "preferred media partner"? If it's true can see Rafa terminating his "project" at the end of the season.

Yep. Douglas thinks this might have legs.

We are 20 points ahead of Villa with 20 games to play. I'm sure we'd all have taken that at the beginning of the season.

He was the only one I was disappointed left in the summer. Rafa clearly rates him and he'd have some explaining to do if he came back (if it's not a load of bollocks of course).

Not blown out by Ryder yet (he clearly knows nowt): http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-transfers-magpies-thought-interested-12456094
