Would like to think not. But can't be easy being a Geordie going through Sunderland academy and making the final step-up. He doesn't strike me as an in your face/fuck you type (imagine Carroll taking same route into the game) so he has probably had to try and prove his loyalty/blend in/compromise his true feelings.

can I start a Marcus Rashford rumour in it's place?

Seems to be more right wing, left wing, LWB, LB in that order.

Well that's down to him/the level his undoubted potential can take him to, I guess. I've been reading about his move to Chelsea and seems he was seen as one of the best young players in Brazil. Here's hoping...

ditto. They're often from some peripheral 'pit village near hell/new town'/have only a passing knowledge of the city.

Still clueless. But wonder whether it will come out that he has some ancient border reiver ancestors from the Kennedy clan? Welcome home kidda

Here's an equally obscure reference... Hope he's excused having to make charitable hospital visits.

Who was interviewing Rafa on Premier League launch show? He was shouting at him like the stereotypical British approach to speaking to 'foreigners'; stick to English, but loudly and slowly. Daft c***.

No need to start Peking his head.

Smacks of taking what we can get, rather than what we most need. 2015/16 we had an excess of attacking midfielders to try and fit in. 2017/18 we have an excess (relatively speaking) of wingers; mainly right wingers: Ritchie (left footed right winger), Atsu (same), Kenedy (same), Murphy (right wing), Aarons (left). Presume Kenedy is for the left side (though not his preference, apparently) and we have flexibility with the others playing on the left if needed, but not ideal.

"It is quite difficult not to make comparisons between Kenedy and Hulk whenever you watch him play, especially considering how both are natural right wingers with a liking to cut inside and shoot from the box or from afar with their powerful left foot." https://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2015/6/29/8859697/chelsea-fc-transfer-target-scouting-robert-kenedy-fluminense

Wut Throw me a bone here, my history doesn't go back far. Having said that, there was probably some c*** two years ago I've forgotten. Mirandinha ring a bell First Brazilian in all of English football, wiki tells me. How about that. You don't say.

Aston Villa would be my guess. Burnley.

'Very' online catalogue. Just buy your ordinary size though, I made the mistake of going a size up due to some patter on here re shirts being small. http://www.very.co.uk/puma-newcastle-mens-third-shirt/1600155287.prd?crossSellType=item_page.recs_1 [edit: just checked, sorry mate only the XL now available. If you want to buy one and swap for a XXL I'm your man!]

We're all monitoring. Closely.

Defender's face is hilarious (in the camera angle from behind the ball),

definitely possible...

Benetiz, Ritchie, Murphy and Shearer on Premeir League show; Sky 403 now.

I agree with what HT is saying/don't see it as controversial. But I don't personally think what Rafa has said counts as airing dirty washing/threatening to walk (word's beginning to grate on me...). How others have interpreted it is the issue. I accept that he needs to be conscious of how his words may be interpreted but the quotes/clips in full (not stopped at the most controversial sentence) always seem to include a bit of balance/perspective re the context/situation and often a sense of a collective we/the club working to do what we can.

Well that is one way to increase someone's motivation to take a pay-cut (elsewhere).

Can see us getting a right tonking. More players were required.
