Don't want him to get CL football - doesn't deserve it - don't care about the £30 MILL - I so hope they're too late to get deal done.

Wouldn't take Koeman's call. :lol:

Who is saying that? Sky?

£55 Mil for two player whose value should have plummeted after their performance last season.....Rafa is a genius.

Ryder is Clueless....as if there is a bidding war for Sissoko lol 

Everton are clearly desperate.

Wonder if we've anyone in the wings to spend Sissoko windfall on....

Nah Rafa will get rid - just not this season.

£30 MILL.....Ha Ha Ha Ha......

Come on Rafa - stand firm - £30MIL

Hope it's true

My only complaint is that I thought we were going for someone with proven goals in them at this level.  Looking at his record he's had one good season in his entire career (14/15).  We needed someone a bit more prolific that that.  It's a gamble - not monetary wise but promotion wise.

Happy with this provided we also bring in another winger.

He's barely played football for the last three years - its a total gamble.  We need another proven winger.

Understand Sebastien Haller's definitely a target for Newcastle. #nufc

Doesn't look the quickest - reminds me of Riviera 

Mitro is good going to love this guy

better going forward than defensively.

Agreed thought he was lucky not to give a pen in second half.  Did well going forward though showed some determination for 4th goal

Thought he did ok today wins a few headers for a small bloke

This guy is mint he bossed it for some periods tonight - was everywhere.  Looked a leader on pitch constantly shouting instructions.

Lacked creativity - no balance - Everything was down right.  Need a winger, left back and a proven striker.

 

everything went down the right because on the left,  if you didn't notice , were Dummy and Anita making a complete fuk up of everything they touched 

Oh I noticed - if we don't address we don't stand a chance of promotion.  Goals win games and we don't look like scoring them - teams can sit back and hit us on the break.  We don't have enough to break teams down.

Would rather have Flanagan over Lucas.

Balotelli 

Anyone got a reduction and/or a refund yet?

Totally forgot about that - weren't we meant to get a letter in the post?

That game was crying out for Ben Arfa - needed someone with a bit of magic to unlock that defence.

Well he's playing for a move.

He's still only 24 - a season in the Championship under Rafa could have been the making of the player.  If we miss promotion he probably then could have the pick of clubs.

What idiot would leave that to play under Pardew for anything other than ££££. 

Clearly cares more about £££ than developing as a player.  His loss.

Should get Hoddle back, at least we won't have to listen to him then.

Eddie Howe for me - not that they'd offer him it nor would he take it.
