No, they didnt quite embarrass themselves enough

Another striker?

It should be Mitrovic, just don't know which way Rafa will use it to motivate him. Now or something to aim for.

Sissoko, Wijnaldum, Janmaat, Thauvin - definitely gone Krul, Tiote - probably gone Shelvey, De Jong, Saivet, Perez - possibly gone Gouffran, Riviere - hopefully gone

The last few years have taught me to instinctively assume things are shit at NUFC. Keep forgetting that Rafa is here and it always brings a small smile.

Isaac Hayden? Was good voicing Chef on South Park, the episode where they killed him off was class. Dunno what he's like as a DM though.

Saivet, Shelvey, Colback, Hayden, Anita is just one away from a decent set of Championship midfielders. It's mostly the wings where we're lacking. And another versatile defender.

Very nice I knew China wouldn't let us down. Now for Tiote....

Jurgen Klinsmann :lol: Fucking hell, may as well stick with Roy!

May as well take advantage of the loan market for back-up players.

He and Mitrovic would get on well

What an absolute prick this one is :lol: Years of inconsistent, heartless shite and he gets to play in the Euro 2016 final. Smelling of roses. At least he's timed it well.

I wonder how much he's regressed in recent years

We must have a quota for knuckle-dragging centre-back mongoloids. Saylor out, Hanley in.

Oh man

The Anderlecht crew are the only two

Get French Football ‏@GFFN 7m No serious talks yet, with Dortmund notably interested & willing to pay Newcastle's €25m asking price. Another PL side also in talks. €25m :lol:

By September it'll be the usual 4 CBs, 5 CMs line-up. Guaranteed

Any word if there's a transfer fee here?

Anyone but Wales, hopefully

If he was fit and regularly playing, I think De Jong would be the natural choice. But he gets papercuts for breakfast, so I would give youth a chance and put the armband on Lascelles. Bold move but he's a good lad and seems a leader.

I love the surprise nature of this summer. He's arguably better than Janmaat and has leadership qualities. Bring it on!

Why is Blaise Matuidi's transfer fee so low? Considering the outrageous, eye-watering fees we now see...... Man Utd are spending just €25m on him.

Don't know what's more unappealing - those prices or the prospect of being surrounded by Russian hooligans.
