  1. I’m predicting early-September
  2. It's Wednesday now, so will we see another week with no decision. This is so laughable, that I just see this dragging on forever.
  3. The whole takeover is complete joke. We were so close being a big force in football to being (again) joke of the country
  4. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/newcastle-takeover-saudi-arabia-mike-ashley-bin-salman-khashoggi-hatice-cengiz-a9550131.html Not exactly good news.. So much hope and nothing has happened.
  5. I would love to get some official comments from PL and Saudis about this. I absolutely hate this silence, because this should be done by now.
  6. Elephant

    Steve McClaren

    Why can't we appoint someone that would actually excite? Just for once in every.. 20 years or so. Getting someone who just got sacked from Championship club is something that you can only expect from Newcastle in Premier League.
  7. Di Matteo was always going to get sacked at the end of the season. Schalke was awful and poorly organised this season. Di Matteo also had lots of problems with players during the season. Few good results might fool someone, but I wouldn't go for him.
  8. They played like Brazil today.
  9. Have to quote my previous post about this situation. Speculation is that the reason Tuchel's deal with HSV didn't go through was because Dortmund got involved. Rumours say that it's 4-year-deal with Dortmund.
  10. Interesting that Tuchel agreed already for HSV, with Dortmund being a real option in the summer. But if he is holding for Bayern Munchen, then Dortmund is not an option. Can see Klopp switching to England next summer with Liverpool and Manchester City as potential clubs. And it wouldn't be bad for Dortmund at this point, as it seems that Klopp can't change it around at the moment for them.
  11. Tuchel actually biggest favourite for next Bayern München manager. But some still think that he is not good enough for us.
  12. Tuchel would be my first choice and he is the manager I would be extremely excited about.
  13. Tuchel would be my first choice, but Garde also seems like excellent option. And it is good that we take time to appoint the right man this time and not end up with likes of Souness, Pardew or Kinnear.
  14. The fact that we got rid of this guy - and even got payed for it - is just beyond me.
  15. What the hell is happening? I was few days off and something like this happens. Better be away just for few days more.
  16. Seven games, no wins. I would love to be Newcastle's manager, because there seems to be no pressure on results. Just take your time, wins will come. If not in Premiership, maybe in Championship then.
  17. Not winning Hull at home. And being happy about the result. What has happened to the club? Smells a lot like relegation.
  18. If it was Perez with that performance, everyone would've praised him. Great passes, good movement with the ball. But when it was Messi, it wasn't anything special. Yes, the expectations are really high and he didn't quite deliver what he could at his best, but it doesn't mean that he didn't play well at all. I agree that physically something is wrong with Messi and has been for a while. It's interesting to see what happens now when the World Cup is over. You could really see from Messi that this was something he really cared about. It's worrying though that with Suarez banned, Neymar probably injured and Sanchez gone, Barcelona might need to play Messi even though he might not be at his best fitness early next season.
  19. I'm Barca fan and wanted to see the team win so badly, but Atletico were better today. They wanted to win the league, Barca players just wanted to collect the bonus moneys. That was well deserved and well fought for Atletico. As for Barcelona, Tata Martino has managed to ruin everything Guardiola and Vilanova built. Thankfully he is gone anyway. Dani Alves and Mascherano can follow him out of the door. Iniesta has been very poor lately aswell and I'm not going to even comment about Messi. Putting Neymar on today was huge mistake by Tata. Barca need huge changes in the summer.
  20. Buy me out of trouble again please Mike. Absolute joke of a manager. Agreed. Basically saying that it's only players fault that the team is not performing well enough.
  21. It was not long ago that he was in the stands watching Barca game and now. Such a shame, tragic news
  22. Hasn't been like that for years anymore. Look at Real Madrid last season, blame was on the players (like Casillas) the whole season and Mourinho did nothing to stop that. The standard of refereeing has been horrible this season, but well.. It has always been. Even the referees can't stop the best team winning the league when it's 38 rounds.
