    Transfer rumours

    Move to Chelsea doesn’t really make sense. Chilwell is first choice so he will be back in once recovered from injury, plus they have Alonso as back up and Emerson out on loan. £30 million is a lot for a back up
  2. I always thought that once you could make money on YouTube you got around £5 per 1000 views? If that’s correct he probably averages £20-30 a video. certainly won’t be on mega bucks mind.

    I was referring to his £19 million move from Liverpool to Bournemouth in Jan 2019

    £30 million is not a lot in this day and age in my opinion. £20 million even 2/3 years ago only gets you a Miggy Almiron, a Rhian Brewster & a Dom Solanke

    I think in any industry your starting bid would be lower than what you are willing to pay.
  6. I am guessing that some of the extra blocks Cambridge have are in the home side of the concourse? I’m guessing in the concourse there is a block between the home/away, but presumably Cambridge tickets cross over that barrier so Newcastle have kept blocks empty up until the next blockage?
  7. We only need to win 8 from 19 if Burnley and Watford win 7. That’s also unlikely so it’s unlikely 8 will be needed. I think 5 wins and 5 draws is enough and I think that’s is doable.
  8. If we don’t play most of the first team, they will have gone nearly 3 weeks without any action by the time Watford comes around. I would play most of them against Cambridge to ensure some kind of match fitness for the Watford game
  9. Can’t wait for this one to be official now. So many tweets from Romano and the likes saying ‘not there yet but almost’ is driving me crazy!

    Haven’t seen Van de Beek mentioned anywhere. Surely we would take him?
  11. Cooper (their captain) and Phillips are out until March. I think they will struggle. Hopefully a draw tomorrow, followed by wins for us over Watford and Leeds will have us out the relegation zone by the end of the month!

    Any other names you’ve heard Ando that haven’t been mentioned much?

    Transfer rumours

    Makes sense, Chelsea I imagine only want him to cover Chilwell this season. They wouldn’t have much use for him next season, and both Chilwell and Digne would want to play week in week out. Would be delighted if we signed him
  15. I think they will still have coverage of it, they will be asking for some money back from the PL if not
  16. It could be possible we are waiting until late as possible so that we can go to the PL and say ‘look, we’ve done everything we can to play this game but it’s just not possible’
  17. Moving into the same territory as Emery now this, multiple sources saying it’s done, other sources saying we haven’t even made a bid. fingers crossed they don’t cock this up.

    I still sometimes have to take a minute to actually get my head around how we have gone from one end of the spectrum to the other, money wise. Crazy
  19. I just can’t see them buying a team in the same league as City and being happy as a mid level team. They’ve bought us and I think they will go all out to make us competing at the top end year on year eventually. I don’t think they have spent 18 months chasing us just to put us on the back burner straight away for a team in a worse league. They spent £300 million on us, rumoured to be a billion for Inter - if they spend 3-400 million on us we will be on par with Inter anyway. Inter are currently losing 15 million a month, not something that would draw an investor I imagine. They also lost their head coach and 2 of their best players last year. The PL is a better league than Serie A with more money, more financial reward and way more exposure. Overall I am not overly concerned by this news.
  20. Not sure that’s quite correct? What I saw was that Alwaleed fella has hosted a show in Saudi which he invited the homophobic journo onto. Nothing to do with the club I don’t think but still not a great look
