Pretty hard for us not to read into the videos and pictures we're seeing. Particularly as we put in bids for him.

As far as I'm concerned it's their loss and our gain. He will be raring to go if he comes back with barely any game time.

But but but we wear the same colours...

Ridiculous but for some reason I felt sad for this guy when he was homesick. Love to see him smiling!

Yeh I agree, Moyes seems to play him abit far forward imo. Brazil he's further back I think, and some of the passes he's been making have been amazing. Personally think his move to west ham was a very odd one, doesn't fit his level and not really a club going anywhere. He's likely going to have the rest of this seasons European games and then West Ham don't see it for a long while. Never seemed like we were in for him at the end but I bet he's jealous as fuck with the way things have gone for Bruno and us. Still think him and Bruno would've been something else in our team.

These links are getting me all hot and bothered. Really interested to see what we do in January based on our league position. Are we going to get a first team player or two, or will it just be a bunch of prospects and put faith in the players that are doing the business right now? Hmmm

I find it hard to see a Saudi owner coming in to compete against THE Saudi of all Saudi's. Seems a waste of time and resources.

Started on the right

Shame it's a shit game to judge him in. Hopefully gets on vs Tunisia/Denmark

That was quality. I really liked one towards the end when he's right down by our goal and just pings one across to Trippier like it nothing. Mrs is Dutch so I used that as an excuse to show her the video.

Full time whistle blows, Al-Shabab have won, when suddenly hundreds of Newcastle flags and shirts appear in the ground. MBS walks out to the centre circle with a megaphone and unleashes an evil laugh. Man I hope this game happens.

Seems ideal for the press. Deceptively quick, long legs to pinch the ball, and a brain (not many of them have this). My awful memory can even picture him nicking the ball off people a few times in the minimal time he's had. Talking about this guy is to much for me, never thought my favourite current player would be one that played a few games and hasn't been seen since.

I like how the media says that for every other team this world cup break is a positive, they will be able to regroup etc etc blah blah blah, but for us it's a negative apparently. My opinion is we come back even better. We're not returning to the thought of fighting a relegation battle or the dull feeling of a midtable finish. We are in such a strong position, imagine players like Burn and Longstaff thinking they could end up playing in the CL with their home town club. Wilson will be desperate to play European football in the same way he wanted to go to the world cup so badly. The list of positives goes on but just the fact they have something special to play for will push them on! I can't be arsed with this WC though, it doesn't feel like the real tournament and I'm pissed we have to wait for our next game as every week is just so fun looking forward to games and then enjoying the result.

Miggy is a good shout, must be alot of people favourites. Mine is odd because he hadn't played much, but there's an aura about Isak (just from the small glipse we've had) that I love. Can't wait for him to have a solid run in the team!

They will be kicking themselves if the chance is gone hahah

Just checked his twitter and yeh he is, that's cool. Also found this on there.

I did think he might be because of the Leon Best song. Is he actually a toon fan though haha?

Personally wouldn't want him at LB behind ASM, seems abit unbalanced. How I've always known him, and very talented in that position. Would be some very serious competition for ASM.

He's a leftback these days? Wtf.

Yeh I think so. There's a lot of good goals in there but none of them are as difficult a technique as Miggy's. The only way he doesn't win is fan voting another way, as all the other goals are just the ball sat infront of them to hit effectively.

Simplified answer is just that Trippier wasn't on the pitch.

100% agree. Can't wait for his return, he's going to be our main man going forward imo. The little glimpses we've seen have been so sxciting, such a slick and classy player. Also really surprised how quick he is! If he stays fit and gets a good run in the team I bet he becomes alot of peoples favourite.

Careful mate, that win broke the last string holding my dick on.

Any time I see us linked with anyone that is also linked with someone else, I can't help but think oh they've just added our name in there hoping for a higher bid from club x.

Cardiff have a mad fans, no way did any Sunderland fan Cardiff fans wouldn’t be a good one to attack. Mental fans.
