Tomori is out of form as well tbf.

Pardew and Carver

Any news on ASM?

Attacking wise yes. Certainly not defensively.

From that article above - jesus christ:

Genuinely happier when this lad scores than any other player in our team.

I mean, he's 31. He's obviously been poor for a couple of seasons but he's not the first person to wind up early in his 30s.

The point is that you can't really clamour for games to be called off last season when it suits you and then also complain that fans are disappointed / out of pocket this season because the game is less vital to NUFC so you wanted it to go ahead. If you do, it makes you a bit of a hypocrite when those same fans would have been out of pocket last season as well.

And yet as I said, nobody was complaining when the COVID games were cancelled last year, when we had an injury crisis and were in the middle of a relegation battle. Funny that.

I'm not sure why people are annoyed tbh, it's definitely a good thing for NUFC as we'll likely have Wilson, ASM and Bruno all back in our team for the next game. Everyone was happy when we postponed games last year due to COVID

Well if nothing happens now I know Ando is a fraud. All or nothing now

We've essentially replaced: Ciaran Clark with Sven Botman Dwight Gayle with Isak Dubravka with Pope That's an insane strengthening of the spine of the team in one window. Don't see how anyone can be unhappy with that.

Looks like the loan has an obligation to buy once a number of appearances have been met.

Strongly disagree but there's no point arguing the toss. Schar made several big mistakes last year.

100% this. Schar makes just as much if not more mistakes than Burn.

Completely agree. I just think that sadly Bruno's trajectory is steeper than ours (not our fault, he's just clearly a top four player) and no club could develop quickly enough before he'll want to leave.

If Real Madrid come in for him it's completely irrelevant if we make the Conference League, he'll still want to go.

We still need to sell at least two players (plus one for every person we sign) to make a 25 man squad. Yet there seems to be next to no talk of further outgoings atm. Fernandez and Darlow have to go surely.

I find these sort of arguments funny. Let's face it, have you ever seen Ekitike play in a full game outside of Youtube highlights? Have you ever seen Joao Pedro play outside of Newcastle v Watford? I highly doubt 99% of our fans have. Maybe there's more to it then what fans on the internet think from Youtube clips?

Not necessarily, if he goes on loan we could cover 50% of his wages and Chelsea cover the remainder.

Nailed it

Done. FYI there shouldn't be an apostrophe in your title:
