Forden and Trippier just doesn't work at all.

But you get what I mean, I've seen players well up for premier league games, this is huge, and their all lethargic.

Nobody looks up for it, it's so weird 😕

We look iffy when they counter.

Trippier well off it here

You probably misunderstood what very many thought about the Gordon signing at the time though, it's not about proving anyone wrong, my personal reasons were about how he came over on the pitch, his attitude, and he was quite cocky, there was even a moment where I thought to myself he'd already blown it at Nufc, when he had his tantrum at being subbed. Gordon has admitted himself on the overlap and many interviews he's done that he's happy, he was never happy at Everton and that reflected in his performance and attitude on the pitch, he's admitted he's matured massively in the last two years, and he's being managed well. I don't think anybody was questioning his ability when we signed him, but rather his attitude, so Antony Gordon proved nobody wrong or right, he proved to himself he can be the best. Newcastle fans will always back that character in a player. You can remove any chips of your shoulders now pal

And there was those saying we had unsellable assets.

Yeah and the cheeky fucker knew he was coming here with baggage, we might have avoided such problems if there was honesty from the player and his representatives. I do believe he may have taken a pay cut so fair play, but addiction is a horrible thing, and nobody can guarantee he won't repeat. We just have to hope it works out. With all this psr bullshit, you really need to get your business spot on though. I mean we nearly fell foul with Paqueta also had those rumours been true. You'd like to think there's better people involved in the profile checking when signing players.

Sorry I was defending the Barnes signing over perhaps how the Tonali one has turned out.

I'm not blaming Barnes, I'd be looking at Tonali, talk about luxury signings? Guys not played, Imagine if he gambles again? Could easily happen with addiction. Perhaps we could have pursued other midfield targets at 65m

Barnes getting a bit of stick, Tonali, all the shit he's caused, going under the radar.

Wait and see what we do. Everyone is just assuming things right now, Forest paid high for Wood, Anderson is a bright prospect with potential sell on value after for them, if they profit on a big sale for MGW then Anderson could fill that void short or long term. I think everyone has got their knickers in a twist over Minteh, all because of this deadline approaching, and because the media have pushed that particular player as the sellable one, it could be anything or anyone, Newcastle of the past few years have surprised us with buying and selling, the media just push what they want, and most of us buy into everything they're saying. Let's see what happens, I'd still love to see Minteh tested with us, and a player like Anderson, Miley, or Longstaff moved on. Good goal scoring wingers are tougher to find than your average midfield player.

If we're looking at pure profit players, Miley, Anderson, Longstaff, one of those could be the sacrificial lamb.

Couldn't agree more with what @midds is saying, he must be looked at and given the chance off the back of a very promising loan spell that saw him pick up a trophy at such a young age, and smash all the data/stats for his position. They'll have to shove their PSR up their arses when City rumble them in court and hand back any deducted points anyway.

Not sure, discussed on Saintsweb I think, guess we'll see?

I'm sure I read somewhere 12m was a figure should Southampton take up the move.

I think we'll strike a deal with Southampton for Fraser soon, how long do we have?

You've convinced yourself 👍🏼

Nobody has any idea what offers we could receive? Fraser I think will certainly go, Miggy, Wilson, Targett, Anderson, Longstaff, if offers came in for these, I'm sure we'll be listening. We've got weeks and weeks of this, I'm sure there's only our fans that think our players are unsellable, but I'll remind you, we shifted out both Shelvey and Wood to Forest.

It wouldn't be in Eddie you trust though, I'm pretty sure Eddie would be taking a very close look and a preseason if he could, the hierarchy if this happens will be the ones pushing it as a pure business move. I would absolutely agree with you if Minteh completes a preseason with us, Eddie has the opportunity to assess him, but then decides to still shift him on.

Going off that, I'd assume he was always a Brighton target, and one we took up because Ashworth advised. Think we'd be mad to sell, should be offloading others first for the sake of raising 30m.

Any need

Reckon they have had a poor uptake of memberships due to how poor the ballot is. I voted to return to the old system, I gave feedback saying they could open ticket sales from 5pm on a day rather than 9am, for the simple reason moaners who got the ballot in the first place said they couldn't log in at 9am when it was first come first serve.

"Brexit, the pandemic, and the difficulties of replacing an underperforming, yet available Kalvin Phillips, have caused me a major headache.

Worries me the way the captain is talking, constantly blaming everything on the, this is tournament football line, talking about our next opponent how it could go to extra time or penalties? Wtf, talk about negativity running through the squad, no confidence. I don't even think Kane should be captain tbf.
