Bernie Ecclestone the Greek coach?

Caqueret would be a fantastic signing (although I would love us to sign Emmanuele Ricci from Torino) Yeah Cherki - although supremely gifted, just doesn’t have to the work rate

Shame - I’ll take Caqueret and Cherki please

Barnes’ best role is where Willock is at the moment - somewhere in the central point of a LWF, LCM and 10 with Big Joe as your LM - gives us a lot of balance - something I suggested as a tactical tweak about 2/3 weeks ago with Tonali as 6 and Bruno as 8 and not playing in a straight 3 in mid

Pretty much my take on Theo aswell - very well spoken I fhought

Peter Drury please (for the laughs)

We are soft as fuck

Switching this shit off - had enough

Pau was about to get the ball - Bradley pulls his shirt - it’s a foul, so a pen - I’m lost for words, I really am

How the fuck is that not a pen???

It’s like watching our corners - opponents end up having a shot on our goal

They’ve got some hard fixtures out of the way now and done well in them - got a good chance of doing something this season

Yeah he is - extended his ban

This - classic case of signing things that are in fashion - no long term view - makes me think signing Paqueta and Kudos may have just been lucky on their part - everything else suggests they haven’t a clue

He was a shocking appointment to begin with - never rated the guy

Feels appropriate to change thread title to Newcastle 1 - ArseNIL

Sort of linked with him last summer

Think TNT have got it spot on with Darren Fletcher and Ally McCoist

Drury drives me up the wall - hate listening to him

It makes the Barnes purchase all the more bizarre when you think we had Gordon/Joe/Joe/Anderson at the start of last season (Isak if we wanted 2 up top)

How many Simeones are there?

I dunno - there’s a bit of Stuart Pearce about him (don’t know why I think that - maybe it’s the way he passes it - all neat and tidy)

24 and under is Mitchell’s policy - which is what we need as the squad is a bit old in places

The double Joe combo with Hall is so sexy

That’s like the old Newcastle I loved watching
