Only seen highlights of Lucas Perez, but he sounds eager to prove himself, after being shut out at Arsenal. Sounds like a good buy, if the price is right. The main stumbling block will be convincing the player to come to Newcastle. All the noises seem to suggest he's keen to return to Spain.

Young 27 or old 27?

Christmas must come early in your household.

Spoke to a few Arsenal fans on the way to the Community Shield today and they said similar to what has been said before. Looks very good but has never got much game time. Questioned his age and they say he plays like a young 29 and his athleticism very good.

Just been to the Community Shield match. Was bemused and astounded how many Arsenal fans rushed out with me after final penalty and how many had already left and were walking down Wembley Way.

Nice one Out of interest do they show the 3pm games? Yup. Perfect I'm willing to drive a car full if others fancy it. Guessing Theregulars will be staying at mine so that will be the front seat filled.

Gamez He has played RB every time I've seen him including pre-season at Hearts. Also fairly right footed it seemed. None the less he would be the back up in that position. It's almost like we need to sign another left back. If only someone like Gibbs was available... Would've liked to see this lad to be given a few games to see if he's up to it but clearly not rated by Rafa. If our budget is what it appears to be then what Arsenal want for Gibbs is out of our reach for a LB. Can't say I'm that bothered about him as I don't think he has much hunger in him these days.

Who is our back up LB? If we are looking to shift him and Haidara.

Hope she's serving it!

What is this utopia you speak of...

Aiming for 7-A-Side if we get the numbers. 5 if not. 1.LFEE 2.Dr Spaceman 3.Foluwashola 4.HTT 5.Slim 6.Danh1 7.M4 8.Theregulars 9. Heron 10 Yorkie 11 Ian W 12. 13. 14.

Nice one

Thanks

For those saying they can't make it it would help if they gave a reason so if it's the date then offer a Saturday close by you could be free. The date is TBC so if we have a dozen no's from regulars but it's nothing that changing it to a week later could fix it be easier to judge as the thread develops. I can only do dates up to 9th Sept at the latest. Thanks NEEJ. Sorry to hear that. You'll be a miss along with Sifu

Whatever judgements Rafa has made about Hanley they've been made from training as let's be honest the lad's hardly played for us and when he has he's done little wrong in reality. I'm a Mbemba fan but at least I can say he had a stinker against Wolves (though his teammates didn't help by not showing for the ball TBF) and was dropped possibly rightly. Couldn't understand him not getting back in or Hanley when Lacelles was clearly struggling with injury or the pressure.

Whatever you do don't give it to HTT's GK to hold

I remember posting something similar a few years ago along the lines of possession football never being truly workable for us due to the crowd at SJP and being shot down for it.

The Celtic LB does look canny like. You can see why we've been linked with him if true.
