3 all the way, to lose like that and have their worst even season man Season 3 that had the one where the mackem cracked his heed open in the fountain at Trafalgar Square just after some lass had taken a dump in it. Proper nose dive into a 30cm deep fountain. They nailed the slapstick comedy genre.

Another 27 years old handsome swiss defender? Yes please!

Wish people would just cool down on shit like this until they see a new owner holding a Newcastle scarf over his head in a picture on nufc.co.uk. Go back some pages and you will see people rightfully listing up reasons why he isn't interested in selling. This happens at the start of every transfer window guys. It's not happening.

Brexit

Meh...won't happen. As always last word is with MA and we know how that goes, if it's even true that there's interest in the club again. More likely the same old rumour right before the transfer window opens. Lots of excitement just for "no comment"

Been updating the Sunderland thread for the most part this evening...wtf is this bullshit then?

Not sure if it was aimed at me but since others quoted it as well... Work isn't an important thing in my eyes, it's just a necessary evil to get the freedom to do other stuff. Working a simple, stable job with set hours and decent pay sounds pretty nice to me. "Find a job you love and you'll never work again" Winston Churchill. Mighty inspirational coming from the prime minister of one of the largest empires of his time. Not everyone has the motivation or capability to put in the work to get the "job that doesn't feel like a job", or the possibility to due to shit going on in their life. I'd probably say the majority of us.

If work isn't important to you, then it must be pretty chill to work in a factory line these days. Lots of hse focus so you won't need to lift heavy stuff, no skills needed. Just come in, turn brain off, do your bit and leave for a decent wage.

Yeah, we should be in for them for those prices.

Knew the first response would be to the black lads with power comment This board is so predictable at times.

Wba staying down increases out chances of getting Rondon permanently so good result.

Really? I just think he was overrated. Tireless, I will give him that, and certainly became more positionally aware with age but he was never a great technician of the ball. Give me a Longstaff type all day. Was West Ham player of the year two years in a row, was in contention to get it the season they were relegated too and was in the England squad. Was Tottenham player of the year first season for them. Looked like he was playing more creatively for the other sides than us in addition to the work rate he had. As alluded to above, it was a lot of spinaroonies and sideway passes I rarely saw of him afterwards.

Wish he had been playing under a better manager while with us. Showed at West Ham and Spurs what kind of player we missed out on. Not that he was terrible for us, but he under the right manager he could have been way better.

I don't trust the comsumers enough to wish it to happen. Mindless drones will tune in to that garbage instead of rejecting it like they should.

Yourtub "Miguel Almirón | Season Review 2019" and compare that with Atsu since his injury. He changes us as a team so incredibly much. Can't wait to see him next seasaon (if Rafa stays).

Central midfield is a bit tricky. Based on his performances I would like Longstaff to be first choice starting next season, so would prefer a straight replacement for Hayden that is intended to go straight into the team and improve it. Is Samaris that guy or should we ideally look for someone better? If Longstaff is considered a first team player, does it justify spending lots of money on a squad player when we have Ki and Shelvey on the books already? Although I would like to see Longstaff in the first team, it is still a major risk if his spell this season was him at his peak. It was after all not many matches he played - would he be able to recreate and hopefully even improve on that this season? If Rafa brings in a high profile player then that could potentially hamper Longstaffs development too... All the other positions are pretty straight forward for me. 1. Retain all center backs. 2. Buy new wing backs. 3. Buy Rondon. 4. Retain Perez. All of this is of course based on the hope that Rafa signs a new contract.

Same with Porto and Monaco in more recent years.

Anticlimatic set of semi finals. Feel really bad for Ajax fans. This team will be teared apart in the summer.

You'd hope all of the good players with ambition would smack in a transfer request if Rafa left. They'd easily get better deals elsewhere anyway.

Imagine if he performed as he has the second half of this and last season for an entire season! Second half of this season he's not only showed to us again that he can score, but some of the stuff he's been pulling off has been incredible. That shuffle inside Liverpools 6 yard box f.ex I was sitting in my chair giggling like a little girl. He seems stronger and faster than he's ever been. Not sure if it's just clouded perception due to feeling better about him than during the first half of the season, or if he's simply improve massively the last year not only technically but also mentally and physically? We'd be stupid to let him go in the summer. If we can get 2nd half season Ayoze over a full season, £25m or whatever is talked about is not enough to replace never mind improve on him.

I want to punch their web developer on the mouth. Hard.
