12m better be a wind up. Whatever happened to our long interest in the likes of Gray and Callum Wilson, Ings etc. They are perfect Gayle replacements.

Joselu surely is/was intended to be a replacement for Murphy, surely. I posted last night I'd love Correa here; someone who I'm going to be excited about going to watch as I've only heard about him recently and what I've heard is really good, plus he can play a striker, which we're desperate for. I can't see us being ambitious enough and trying to get him. Ashley doesn't want the club anymore and so won't put any of his 3.5bn fortune or whatever the f*** it is into something he doesn't want. And the press know f*** all regarding incomings. Merino was out of the blue, as was Manquillo, and the Correa talk from 2 days ago from Ryder and the Chronicle has just evaporated it seems. I know we are a newly promoted side, but for gods sake! Whats happened to the market, if its that tough to sign players we should turn back to ligue 1. Because if Haidara on 22k a week is considered high wages, we could sign pretty much anyone outside PSG and a few of the top tier sides. Everton picked up Ramirez for nowt. They are blowing their lukaku money to death, you are right though the fat tit has decided he's done. Its like me putting piles of cash into my house im selling for some other fucker to enjoy. I would respect Rafa even more if he can do something with what we have. Id be content to finish 17th. I know Benitez will already be targeting much higher and believe he would have had everything he needed by now. Unfortunate we have a director who is useless.

Last week im masturbating over Correa, now we are talking about Joselu. A guy who spent most of the season behind John Walters. Fuck off and sign some talent. Season starts a week on Sunday for us. And nobody else will be in by then given our track record. Fucking sack Charnley he's an utter slug.

Good result. Nice long pass to shelvey to create the third for Atsu. Impressive.

Think I'll wank my foreskin clean off if we can get Correa to sign.

The craziest appointment ever, after the famous bolt the horse and carriage. McClaren hardly chose the players coming in mind. I think the only one he fought for and signed was Shelvey, maybe possibly Townsend?

Thing with Mitrovic. He scored 9 in his debut season. In the past we have raved about players who have perhaps only done a tad more. I think with him,most of us note the amount of missed chances or simple chances he wastes. Since our last promotion, players best seasons. Ba 16 Remy 14 Nolan 12 Carroll 11 Cisse 11 Mitrovic 9 Ayoze 7 Its not that terrible, if he could put away the chances he wastes he could have improved that record.

No you really are not.

Seriously. Real Madrid or a newly promoted side. And people wonder why we get the delusional label.

His record since leaving us is dismal. Think I read he hadn't scored for over 18 months.

Is he signed?

Is that an opinion, or have you read some info on it?

I think bbc have the games tomorrow and Wednesday also.

Buying Hanley was a mistake. As was Gamez, as was Lazaar. As was Saivet. Riviere. The list goes on. Only squad buy last season worthy was Murphy,and you can see why hes been purchased fairly quickly. Some of the players we have stuck with us will be pretty difficult to shift. That's bollocks, Hanley would'be been essential if we'd had one more injury, same with Gamez. Murphy wouldn't have been needed if Gayle had been fit. Saivet, Riviere, yes they are shit players. Im not sure? Obviously you need cover for injuries. But im not sure the outley on some of them was necessary. Hanley cost more than Clark. Its not about blaming Rafa as I bet Carr was behind most recommended targets. I just believe we could struggle to make any profit on many if we need to sell these players on, maybe even struggle to get the same back? I dunno? It would be a shame to be stuck with players we just dont need. Typically players like Riviere. ?

West Brom are ready to move for Tottenham flop Moussa Sissoko and save his Premier League career. The sunday sun. Would love this to be true.

It was nothing special mate. De Jong fluffed a few chances. Some of them still need to get a bit sharper Aarons. Mbemba was tested at RB and was fairly poor ahead of him Atsu wasnt setting the place on fire. Personally I thought the second side was better than the first half side. We saw Callum Roberts get a short stint down the left he looked ok. Top of the bunch were Lejeune who was fairly solid and made very little errors passing out from the back. Shelvey was standard usual good display, Dwight Gayle was like a man possessed running all over, he seemed to have bulked up maybe for the prem facing stronger defences? Mitro did ok won lots of flicks took his goal well and also smashed one of the inside of the post, which looked like his second goal as we all jumped about to find it wasnt a goal. Murphys debut was nothing special looks like he is still getting used to his new team mates, ahead of Yedlin that right side looked very threatening, but he switched for the final 15 for the introduction of Manquillo, Murphy looks rapid mind, I also thought Yedlin was class. Still looks like we need to shift a fair few on,some youths out on loan and maybe flog Hanley, Diame. Also Dummett needs some competition for that LB spot, theres nobody knocking on the door. Cheers,sorry cant be bothered to rate them individually. It was nothing special. Those mentioned probably an 8 the rest 6s or 7s

The size of Hanley there! Even compared to LeJeune.. He'd nearly be worth keeping just for the Stoke game. Hes on his tip toes if you look at his feet. Dont know why?

Looked like Gayle had been working on his physical upper body he looked beefed up. The new CB Lejeune looked pretty solid. Mbemba at RB was no use. Yet second half Clark at LB seemed ok? We had some fairly decent chances and plenty of possession but as the game drew on looked like neither side was going to get a winner. Agree with you on Diame and De Jong. Was a good turnout from our support they gave double allocation so we were able to sit anywhere.

Jack Wilshire isn't the kind of signing I would want here given his fitness and attitude. But if it was the end of Colback forever, I could totally live with it.

How come nobody has gone in for that ante coric yet? Was he not supposed to be on many sides radar including us.

Didn't know we had a bid accepted? So hows he got to decide between clubs.

Shocked at this transfer. Its actually a down grade on Anita. Hope its a low fee if it is permanent.

https://www.google.co.uk/amp/www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-double-signing-benitez-ojo-10816933.amp Hope this reassures a few. Sounds like he does have some faith in the owner. But just the market is mental. I particularly like the mention of being able to spend it how he likes be it alleged 70m on one player or several. I guess nobody wants to get ripped off when you only have 70m to spend and 2 experienced players could cost you that(these days). And would they keep you up,stay fit and injury free? I trust Benitez to get this done its just gonna be a game of patience, guess we should try and relax a bit.
