  1. I like how the article is about signing some kid and they just drop it in all casual about Wijnaldum

    This.

     

    Newcastle close on Ivan Toney transfer as Steve McClaren eyes young talent

     

     

    The 19-year-old striker will cost the St James' Park club around £300,000

     

    Newcastle United are closing on a deal for Northampton Town teen Ivan Toney.

     

    The 19-year-old striker has caught the eye of Premier League and Championship clubs with his performances for the League Two side and was close to joining Wolves last year.

     

    But the Magpies have now swooped for the promising forward, and he is expected to become Steve McClaren's first signing as Newcastle boss if the £300,000 deal can be confirmed before the arrival of Georginio Wijnaldum.

     

    Toney made his Football League debut aged 16 back in 2012, becoming Northampton's youngest-ever player.

     

    He has three goals in 16 first-team appearances for the Cobblers.

    Christ, put an owld coat on Mclaren, he'd pass immediately for a hobo

    He looks like he's been down a pit. Have they struck coal in the bore hole?

    Good to see Ser Davos getting a new job

    Was just going to post that

  3. Well, the cheap, fallback option is actually a better player than the first two options. I'm not actually sure we'd be able to sign him; I wouldn't give that much credence to the "modest fee" put there.

     

    If that's true then fair enough, I don't know too much about him (but 15 goals isn't bad). I just saw the cost and where he plays and figured it was the 'Rivière' option. Personally I'd like some more South American players in the squad.
