I would imagine the loan market coming to the fore at the end of the window.

I think most importantly is getting shrewd football appointments in the right places at boardroom/admin level. Once that’s done the rest follows I would prefer Rafa for the challenge that lies ahead this season out of the two. I would feel confident he’d get us promoted too. really I’d like us to appoint the next Benitez.

Shelvey should never have featured.

That's where I'm at @midds. I think he's actually done pretty well to get the team playing his way as opposed to Bruce's way in the period of time he's been here. Remember how long it took Keegan to get the Allardyce stink out? That said, it's of fuck all use if you don't pick up points.

Give him the rest of the season off. The biggest component of a porous midfield.

Touche. To be fair to Eddie his hand would have been significantly strengthened by some early singings. We appear to be struggling with that.

Newcastle 3 - Brentford 3 Arsenal 2 - Newcastle 0 Newcastle 1 - Norwich 1 Newcastle 1 - Burnley 0 Leicester 4 - Newcastle 0 Liverpool 3 - Newcastle 0 Newcastle 0 - Manchester City 4 Newcastle 1 - Manchester United 1 Newcastle 0 - Cambridge 1 Newcastle 1 - Watford 1 It's enough time to fix glaring errors.

I don't even mind going down if PIF get a bit fucking smart.

What the fuck did he learn when he was studying Simeone?

Probably need at least 4 quality players to have a chance. If the majority of our outfield players remain pre-takeover signings then we are done.

Shelvey and Lascelles are always picked when fit. Shelvey always the midfielder nearest the defence and runs in treacle. Lascelles lucky not to have lost us the game today. Not good enough.

His close control at pace is ridiculous ??

Did Maxi hold on to it for too long ?

Get Tae fuck Watford

There is a conversation to be had as to whether Howe is pragmatic enough to keep us up but there’s no denying we have a lot more of the ball higher up the pitch. Shame the players are crap. I mean most needed replacing 3 years ago. Other teams improved we went out of our way not to.

Our players are not very good.

He’s a fucking immobile fucking twat.

Probably because Suarez didn't want to go to Arsenal? Edit: he did but then he changed his mind after speaking to Gerrard and Rodgers.

I really enjoyed this post.

Lady Mags is a quality name.

It's not theoretical, he's better than Gayle and our only other striker is injured. We now have a striker.

Ones a miserable hell hole where women are second class citizens and human rights are a punchline and the others Saudi Arabia

Also this is not an Ashley signing. At best with Ashley we would have low ball bid for him on deadline day having sold ASM.

Happy with this.
