Dodged a few bullets there. Bring it on.

He's an absolute goal machine. Would score goals in any league in the World . Ironic he was "not wanted" by Pardew

£30M

That lick when he finishes speaking is surely the GLOAT

Haven't seen a single goal from tonight,checked Sky Sports site but doesn't seem to have updated yet. Any other links?

post match interview anywhere online?

Should of took it in the corner and waited for more support tbh. Good goal but he's still got a lot to learn.

Noticed his phone activated S Voice when he started speaking. Would love it to say "Calling Pards" when Ashley said the word "casino"

Still think he did absolutely fine when he played and baffled as to why he didn't get a look in. Maybe his attitude in training was p*ss poor as Rafa (rightfully) wouldn't stand for that. However if he worked hard in training and showed he wanted to play then it's very strange. In less than 90 minutes game time he played better than Colback had in an entire season. One game he was very tidy,keeping his position well and passing forward.

This. I was thinking the other day when Pardew was here and I actually wanted us to lose games. When we scored it was just a Partridge shrug.gif. Now Rafa has brought all the love back,and considering we're in a lower division than before,that's quite mind blowing!

Couldn't give a shit how it's paid. I'm still laughing that we got £30M for him

Sky telling everyone how good he is by showing his FM stats compiled by our own researcher Can't believe they rely on a game for stats. Can't help but laugh everytime I see it

Please don't fall through, please don't fall through, please don't fall through

Newcastle United manager Rafa Benitez said: "I agreed with our fans that we needed to bring in another winger, so I am very happy to welcome Christian to the Club. Hi Rafa

This. Not worth the risk for the same amount of money Everton are offering. Spurs £45M or suck on this Danny.

Deal off

£30M :lol: #transferrape

Luiz just arrives in London and Kirsty Gallacher asks "but will the deal be done in time?" in typical Eastenders style bombshell fashion. Sky Sports are so fucking cringeworthy.

Had all summer to put a squad together and they still need to sign 4 players on deadline day We know those feels.

Will be our keeper when we win the Champions League in 10 years time.

Pardew's ego can't contain itself on deadline day and Palace swoop with a £40M bid for the French Left Back.

Good mentor to improve Mitro's game and gives us depth in a key area. Good signing. We have plenty of pace in attack but lacked strength and power.

Did he even touch the ball? Nope He had a few touches near the touchline. Did he look good whilst touching it?

Some really class passing moments yesterday. Quick precise passing with players moving off the ball. Thought Anita was absolutely superb at RB and so far this season deserves that position as his own.
