Was right before the equaliser wasn't it? Seemed to distract everyone in the stadium, including the players.

This is like the 12/13 January window but on steroids and not as French.

I think it's his two-footedness which impresses me most. He referred to it in that FIFA interview video someone posted a few pages back. Admittedly we're only watching his highlight reel here, and Shola looked like a world beater in his. (I am in no way suggesting he's of Shola's low standard! )

Didn't expect being linked to a Kiwi striker to splinter the forum so fast.

The save from Murphy looked absolutely disgusting from the Leazes, like.

Can't wait to see more of him, I just hope that we add a few players that are of a similar quality. Some of his first touches today to take down the crossfield passes, man.

Nonsense, man. He's trying to protect whatever remains of the squad's confidence. They're shot to pieces and, as much as we'd like to start over, we're stuck with the majority of this shitshow of a group until the summer.

Looking through our squad, there's only Wilson who's scored goals consistently at this level throughout his career. Gayle has never been up to it. Of the rest, Ritchie probably comes closest but he's been finished for years. It's a huge problem and one that needs fixing immediately with new blood.

He's been really, really disappointing like. He looks like he'd rather be anywhere than here, which is fucking infuriating when he's phoning in performance after performance.

We desperately, desperately need a goalscorer. We need a beast who's capable in the air as well as the deck. ASM was absolutely shocking. We seem to have signed Willock's shite identical twin. Their goal was comically shite defending/keeping. Dear me.

£12m excluding add-ons according to Hope's tweet. Absolutely fucking insane.

Doesn't it just have to be over the marking in the same way all of the ball needs to be over the of the line for a goal to stand?

I'm looking like Joe Kinnear in here, man!

Can I get out of my transfer bath now?

It would've been absolute carnage. Shins scraped down to the bone, the works. My voice would've possibly never recovered. I think most people around me were stood there, hands on heads in disbelief, wondering how the hell we didn't score.

Reeled in so many people, man. Loads of NUFC accounts following him as well.

£31m, IIRC? It's hardly extortionate for a player of his calibre.

Gutierrez was over ten years ago, man. Who else is realistically going to be spending money in their markets at this point? They'll be dying for the business, which is more than you can say for the PL clubs. I'd be amazed if we got owt but 2 loans from the PL.

There's a release clause though, right? So that's the upper limit of what Atletico can ask for, and we knew this going into it.

Running a New Years transfer bath, hopefully the first of many.

Maddison is a proper odious little pipsqueak, like.

Jez Quigley. What a throwback.

Howay, man.

Incredible statement of intent if he turns out to be our first signing, like.
