Kid Icarus

I really thought the whole 'hahaha am so random" shit had died with my generation like

They're all the 'is something brilliant happening!?' cunt from Nathan Barley

empty corporate banter

I said it a while ago, but I think some people might end up coming to the realisation (or maybe they won't) that their happiness isn't tied to Newcastle in the way that they thought it was and that they're actually just unhappy. If you can't feel positive now (ignoring the off-the-field issues anyway) about the club, I'm not sure if you ever will.

Some weird revisionism going on considering it was only 7 months ago. The plan was Carlos and Botman, we then went for Burn and now we have Botman. If anything it all points to Burn having been the alternative to Carlos, which is absolutely fine. Not even sure what the issue is considering Burn was cheap and has been outstanding.

Would be amazing if he could get in the England squad like. He's definitely got consistency and defensive nous in his favour. Would probably take an injury to Chilwell or Shaw to give him a really good chance (similar to the opening Burn potentially has) and he'd need to step up a bit, but it's within his capabilities.

I love him. He's such a likeable bloke. Lodi looks incredible, but as daft as it might sound, I'd rather feel the connection with a player that's not as good. It's what it's all about for me.

I've got a lot of time for ex-players that stay in the area.

Would love to see Rashford absolutely tear it up abroad like

4-6 weeks in my experience

The Luque one was System of a Down wasn't it?

I get that Maguire's a figure of fun because of his Man United form and with good reason, but you're also talking about England's joint record goalscoring defender here

I've heard it loads because I'm pretty much always late.

Ziyech is very good, but also 29 and probably on high wages.

If other club's transfer links and signings are anything to go by, we definitely appear to be looking at the right players. Generally strongly linked with players who are also linked with PSG, Man City, and Borussia Dortmund.

This is well worth a read https://serbenfiquista.com/forum/geral/1/goncalo-ramos/63863/20820 More or less unanimous in thinking selling him is a big mistake.

Not sure if Tielemans is just out of form, but he looked like he dropped off a bit last season compared to previous seasons.

Maguire for England is still usually the same player that's made him a guaranteed starter when I've seen him. Not sure how long he'll be 2 different players for club and country though

We won't lose this surely? Talk me down

On paper it's risky but at least it's not QPR 12/13 has-beens, misfits, or troublemakers, so it might pan out given enough time.

I actually bought Reyna to hit that 'sign 2 American players' achievement in FIFA funnily enough. Sold him straight after though, he was disrupting the squad by 'saying things that you cannot say' (soccer)

It would be like £800 ish each
