While it's worrying we are losing local players, it's understandable why the kid would think Everton are a better bet right now. He would be waiting until he's 22 at least to play for us judging by past efforts. What has happened to Cal Roberts, When does longstaff get a chance, what's the point in Tom Heardman. Now Rafa may have plans and ideas but a young kid and family probably think Everton are aiming higher and will bring young players through. On another hand 6m is a lot of money for a 16 year old, so not surprised the club have accepted it for an untried talent

No he didn't, he was exactly the same all season and in my eyes complete and utter turd.

Would sell if we get over £12 million

I prefer Gnarls Barkley

I'm hoping Colback is a fringe player by that point and they dump him as quick as possible. Hanley, Murphy, Krul (I would keep) will surely find clubs no problem. Riviere, Saivet, How Lazaar, may be harder to shift

Aye, much better buying big names like Wijnaldum and Sissoko. I take your point but Manquillo and Clucas sound like relegation battle names. We need to aim higher, hoping Murphy is a decent signing and he seems to have a bit about him but not convinced at all with others. Could be a masterstroke of course and I'm more than happy to be wrong.

It looks like we are signing a load of shit tbh, trust Rafa but not convinced by the names being linked

As a squad player he may be ok, but underwhelming signing this one. Hope to fuck we are filling out the squad and blowing the rest of our load on a couple of top players

Off to Fulham innit? His Mam was born in Walker so wants to sign for us

Urgh, he's shockingly shit - Don't trust Rafa anymore.

Murphy prefers to play RM so it'll be interesting to see what happens with him and Ritchie. Decent pace with him, Aarons and Atsu, with Ritchie offering a bit intelligence. Not sure how Ojo would fit in as well, not sure we need 5 wingers

I hope he stays, we need a player like him if he can just stay fit and keep his organs together. Has that touch of class that could be the difference for us

Can't wait for the next drawn out saga of monitoring, preparing, considering and making a bid

Probably that we are not interested in him or that we want to pay them in a lifetime supply of chocolate oranges

Well all you need is a script to update a page framed by shit ads and videos with the words Newcastle united Sources deny %1%

[emoji38] I've got an i7 and it kills that easily. I try no to go on it if I can help it "but , but you work in IT put add blockers on your browser" :lol: Pfft The Chronicle website is Chernobyl for your PC Tbf, I'm against ad blockers as content does need paying for, but that website is utterly ridiculous. Running a website is cheap as chips. There's absolutely no reason to have that level of infestation forced on viewers Please read what I said. I said CONTENT, content doesn't grow on trees actual people need to create it. I run multiple websites, I know that. I don't think Content could grow on trees and who is actually creating Content on trees. Might have been better to state Content does not self generate unless it's done by google.

I love how they are trying to build a mid table championship team.

Afternoon denial, we will be lucky if not denied by 9 o'clock for any that come through ?

Suppose at least it will make it interesting when we sign no more players and Rafa walks. Pardew rocking back up and flipping the crowd the v's

Turning our noses up at every player we are linked with, do we expect Messi? Players that make us a solid team are where we are at and mid table would be a big achievement this year. It's not about the individual, it's about the system and balance. Montero, Navas etc are really not as shit as people are making out. Ffs we had Obertan, Anita, Sissoko and fuck knows who else playing as wingers until recently. I trust there's a plan as long as Rafa is here

What's wrong with it? Should be at least 2 commas in there

Urgh I hate watching Lick Ryder. Hes such a spaz. Worrying if our range is 5-10mill. I wonder where we would finish if we didn't sign any more players. I don't actually think teams from say 12th to 17th last season are anything special, that's not to say we wouldn't just go straight down but we definitely have a few players to make the step up and play better than 2 years ago.

I mean it's really sounding great at the moment - can't afford 12 million for Delph is surely a new low.

Well we will be going straight back down then. I reckon we need to spend that on Striker and maybe attacking midfielder. The bar has been set by other smaller clubs this year and other teams will just raise prices now. It's mental really, but we have to compete unless we have a grand plan for sourcing from abroad. Mind we have the right manager to get the most of players we bring in. I don't think we have to spend massive on every player, but in a few key positions we really do. I can't believe we aren't trying to compete for Ineacho, Giroud or Batshuayi - or maybe we are and they don't want to sign
