  1. True, but I suspect they just chuck a lot of stuff out there.
  2. Had a quick look at Adlernews twitter and top tweets were back in June where they were spamming Liverpool and Chelseas lookinh to buy him. Don't think they seem very reliable at all.
  3. When Downie reported that we had a small team of guys on transfers so it took a while & we couldn't do multiple deals at once, I was wondering 'are we trying to sneak a quick transfer through here?'
  4. Any chance of a JT as Terry Mac? Edit: caught up with the thread now
  5. Always think with Big Joe, the better the team we're playing the more important he becomes.
  6. I dunno man, they're no Joël Piroe that's for sure.
  7. Yeah definitely manc but I think it's the fact he also sounds positive and happy that's causing the confusion.
  8. Yeah some Scandi bloke called Firstname Firstnamesson. Dunno if he's got the x factor to make the first team though. Sounds quite stereotypical to me.
  9. ATTEN-TION. PRESENT... BINOCULARS. STAND AT... AIRFIELD.
  10. Plane nonces assemble!
  11. Well wait no more, because the time is now. Newcastle United have signed someone. And this is what it feels like.
  12. Don't get too cocky, Targett's wages are dropping off our books next year!
  13. I'm pretty sure they get less money from their sponsor when they're not in the champions league, which is probably pretty standard. That's just being phrased in the most clickbaity way possible.
  14. Just to trigger a large section of our fanbase: Ooh, you can dance, you can jive Having the time of your life Ooh, see that guy, watch that scene Digging the dancing swede,
  15. The fume whenever Wilanga have masculine fun together is going to be beautiful. As will the fume over calling them Wilanga.
  16. Low blocks are hard for everyone to break through tbf, that's why teams do it. I actually think one of the best ways to combat it is for a winger to get to the byline, drill a ball into the box and cause some chaos, and Elanga could be great for that. My main concern with the team is that we tend to be quite impatient, usually look to quick transition all the time, and while that can work, it can also lead to dangeros turnovers and counters where players are out of position. Hopefully Elanga's also got the touch and compousure to be able to link & maintain possession under pressure & isn't a mainly guy who just thrives running into space.
  17. I did specifically say it was a cheap joke to be fair. EDIT: also he is statistically a bad finisher over many years
  18. Fair play to @SUPERTOON on this one.
  19. I think my main concern with DCL isn't so much that he can't hit a barn door, it's that I'm not sure he even knows what a barn is. Plus there's his concerning injury history, which suggests that at least some of the time he'll be fit to play. Anyway, internet dickery for cheap jokes aside, he's a consistently bad finisher, but his all around game as a target man is probably perfectly ok, which gives us something a bit different. Like any deal, all depends on how much really, I suspect he'll want pretty big wages. But if picking up a free lets us go bigger in another area could be worth it. End of the day: cheap / good / willing to be a backup: pick two.
  20. Quality player, best of luck to him. Still think he's got a bit more left in the tank than everyone assumes. Hope he gets a good gig somewhere.
