Iceland with more dangerous opportunities in the first half... HUH!!! Croatia with not much to play for most likely with their thought on Denmark game.

Considering his age, the position he plays in, his international record and his actual decent strike rate already in the PL. I think 20 million in today's market is undervaluing him. IMO we will struggle to find a player as valuable to our team up front as Fulham have if they buy him for that price. It's a crying shame Rafa doesn't rate him and the two just don't work together because this lad is going to come back and bite us in the bum. Yeah, think he would be extra motivated to score against us having not gotten enough opportunities. I made my peace with this situation, he does not fit into Rafa's system and the choice between Rafa and Mitro is easy.

As I said, Fulham would not be in the Premier League without him. 20m is a fair price in today's market. Was looking at Villatalk today and they seem to think that Grealish is worth 50m, so we have lot to learn about being unrelistic.

I'm going to take the unpopular opinion, Ramos did nothing wrong there, it's part of football and was a accident. https://www.facebook.com/allualhaaan/videos/605104756522787/?hc_location=ufi

Fulham would not be joining the Premier league without the contribution of Mitrovic.

Player sales do not come into Turnover and are therefore not a part of the operating loss of 90,9m. Included in the Operating loss is wages, other expenses, player amortisation and depreciation. Player sales however do come into Loss after Tax along with Taxation credit and interests.

On one hand I'm glad he's not going. 1) Facing England will be easier 2) He will be rested for Newcastle On the other hand, it is a problem that playing for Newcastle somehow excludes you from contention for playing for England. Who was the last Newcastle player who played for England?

In the "Rest of the World" - Team of the season in FIFA 18 (ea sports). Must have had a good season with Anderlecht.

Found a clip of the incident: https://twitter.com/AbsoIuteIyAyoze/status/991001727657828354/video/1

Stupid of Slimani and should be banned. When I watched the game, the commentators Dawson doing something which caused Slimani to react, can't find the incident now. However Dawson rolling in the grass pretending to be injured with the intention to get him banned is not something I like.

Agree with that, but that is a global problem, or at least a 1st world problem. My feeling is that Newcastle and the north east is a perfect soil for producing excellent footballers, but maybe the "gardening technics" aren't up to date. Not sure how the youth program is for young footballers in the north east but that is where it needs to begin. Newcastle youth academy can't be responsible for it, it only handles a hand full of kids.

Why isn't the area producing good players at the same rate as before? This should be a prime area for good players, football is almost a religion and kids should be interested, playing football day-in day-out. Is the coaching not up to scratch or a lack of facilities for young people to play at?

Why change a winning team? because gayle keeps missing loads of chances and we brought in a £28m striker to try to stop that happening EDIT: miss the chances against the likes of arsenal and you'll get punished, basically His last 90 min was on the 1st of January. He will not start.

He is truly the David Brent of football management. You are so wrong to hate him, you should all just enjoy him while he is still employed.

Here is my take on it (voted 5 in the poll):

If I remember correctly, when Rafa came with 10 games to go in 2016, it was said that never had a manager change so late in the season saved a club in the PL. Still think it would be a correct decision for West Brom just like it was for us in 2016.

Injured, ooopps

More accurate.
