  1. He holds countless records for being one of our shittest managers of all time. There's no chance he did better than Rafa or Hughton, especially relative to the squads they had.
  2. I wonder how many of these players will end up here...
  3. How do you know he isn't? He's specifically mentioned only players that have signed or been heavily linked, he's either ITK or very specifically lucky.
  4. If it is true that it was essentially Szboszlai or Maddison and that Man City going for Gvardiol would stop it from happening at all, then I'm sure it'll either come into their thinking or they'll consider another player. We've really taken our time on this AM/RW hybrid player despite it always seeming to be a priority target.
  5. £60m is a lot like, but he does look good and is 22.
  6. I wonder if they'll reconsider just paying the release clause then.
  7. This lad has been far, far more reliable than any journos this summer
  8. He's been by far the most reliable person this summer. Way beyond the journos. Any others that he's already mentioned without me having to go through his full timeline?
  9. The actual thing that Ornstein's saying doesn't fill me with any worry tbh. If he's right, then Liverpool are considering him as one of their other AM targets but they might not go for it because of his pricetag.
  10. That's true but it's not dissimilar to their overreliance on Bale before they sold him. The money that they sold him for (and Modric the previous season) kickstarted a spending spree that ended up with them landing on Dembele, Lloris, Vertongen, Alderweireld, Eriksen, Alli, Trippier, Son with plenty of room for signing some absolute duds as well. I dunno, maybe they don't need to sell Kane to do that and they just need to sort their recruitment out regardless, but £80m for a 31 year old is a lot like.
  11. They seriously want their head checked if they don't sell him for that mind. It was the sales of Carrick, Berbatov and later Bale and Modric that kickstarted them ending up with an excellent squad under Poch and the club they've been for the past 10 years. They seriously need a refresh and selling an aging Kane (and Son tbh) would go a long way to funding that
  12. Mad to think that part of that tenner is profit as well
  13. Where's the journo tier list? Edwards needs taking down a notch after the last couple of weeks
  14. He was 15 or 16 I'm so grateful Twitter wasn't around when I was that age.
  15. I don't want to start my day like this
  16. £50m is fucking insane That's what Kyle Walker went for.
  17. Mad how much he looks like our lord and saviour Jesus Christ
  18. Student population ≠ student accommodation population. I would need to check when I'm on campus for the exact figures, but we (Newcastle Uni) and Northumbria have a huge amount of local students who live at home as well as students in off campus sites and in Singapore and Malaysia.
  19. Howeh man Yorkie you know what I mean It's not the same as private renting, it has its own regulations and is for students only. But yeah, fair enough, it's housing. In general it indirectly frees up other privately rented properties by being there, but in this specific case with Leazes Terrace where there's existing, available student accommodation in the same area, it doesn't really apply. I'd be agreeing with you if the city didn't have enough student accommodation.
