and Keane. It all makes sense.

18 is Karius. Lean on Lascelles to give up 6 imo. If not, 16, or 21 when Fraser goes.
-
He'd be playing instead of Gundogan you'd think, but then rotation also comes into it. I definitely don't think he'd be wasted like Phillips has been.

Just thinking back to Milanista's post yesterday about Tonali's role in covering for the massive gaps left in behind by Leao and Hernandez, just throwing this out there, but I wonder if there's also an 'unlock ASM' element to this signing.
-
They say this about every player, it's an easy thing to say. As long as it's not that there's a obvious gap between the fee and the quality from the outset (Maguire for example) I would pay it no mind. The same was said about Walker, KDB and plenty of others when they were bought.
-
They definitely look similar to the extent that they can cover for each other. Then look at Longstaff vs Tonali as well, he's pretty much a like-for-like upgrade on the same profile of player. Based on the stats anyway.

James Maddison (now playing for Tottenham Hotspur)

That scene is so unintentionally funny like. I proper burst out laughing the first time I saw it. -

Repeating myself like, but he was my dream signing when the takeover happened. It would be amazing to see him back to his best, but it's hard to imagine he can after his injury problems. -

Now imagine if he was white? -
Slobs vs snobs Saying nothing vs talking pretentious shit Having a laugh vs thinking what you're saying is important It would be nice to get some middle ground and tbf I think Cox is really exaggerating. Micah Richards and his put on craic gets on my nerves and the fanTV style has crept in a bit but it's hardly as a replacement for analysis like, it's alongside it.

He was the one that wanted to give O'Neill manager of the year over Howe because he'd got Bournemouth to 'mid table' - they finished 15th. There's very much a grift circuit that him and all of that group are on like. We look down on TalkSport for deliberately getting disagreements going but they're no better really. The only one who genuinely knows his stuff in that crowd is JLA
-
I think I'm the other way. I blamed Given, Carroll, Enrique etc at the time but with time understood what Ashley's like.
-
Thought this was pretty interesting when Maddison and Szoboszlai's profiles were compared on Sofascore on Loaded Mag last night. Nigh on identical.
-
Just give Bruno 48 hours
-
A bit of a cliche because they're all Milan legends but his gait on the ball does remind me of Pirlo, Rui Costa and Kaka at times like, but within the mould of a more tenacious DM.
-
Would be really interesting to know exactly where Tonali was on the list alongside Veiga, Szoz, Maddison etc
-
I think we only have one starting player below 80 on FIFA if this goes through. Crazy.
-
For all the joking on, it's shit from your perspectives that this is happening (if it is) and we can definitely relate from our years under Ashley. Hope you stick around
-
Something so fucking weird about us potentially nicking an AC Milan player, there being talk of their fans rioting if it happens but not being blown away by the actual player like.
-
It wasn't that long ago that we were on the other side of the fence, so it's easy to empathise like. It happening to a club like AC Milan isn't good at all, as much as it benefits us. I think we can all collectively agree that football went to the dogs of capitalism a long time ago as well, it's not like this is anything new, Newcastle is just the next, possibly penultimate or final incarnation of something we've all hated for like 20 years now.

Yeah that makes sense. It's Barella that's throwing me a bit in all of this I think. Total guesswork, but I'd think Bruno stays deep with Barella alongside him and plays RCM with Tonali playing deep.
-
It's quite hard trying to work out whether the players we're going for are as an alternative to another or in addition to another. Like are we going for Tonali and playing a different way as an alternative to going for Barella or for Maddison, or are we going for them in addition to each other?
