Sanusi was said to be signed nearly a month ago with Divine Mukasa and Leo Shahar too. Has Ollie Harrison even officially joined Chelsea yet? Must take longer with paperwork or contracts or possible tribunal at that age? Or maybe just less priority. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Exciting times. We seem to be mopping up talent from everywhere, and not just for the sake of it, but also with a proper plan and strategy behind it. Can't wait to see "unknowns" plopping up from the academy into the senior squad. We'll save so much having players come up from below. The ones that don't have the potential to make the cut growing up will hopefully impress enough out on loan to still bring some coin in. It feels decent to be a Toon fan now compared to when the takeover "collapsed" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to enjoy watching them when they played at Durham. Remember watching the youth teams with the likes of the Caldwell coming through. Again, killed by Ashley.

Even with our constant taking the piss out of the SPL’s quality, I worry it’s a big leap up for a lad who hardly tore it up at Tranmere last season. Worked well for Krul and Dummett but less so a number of others (Kuol, https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/31099950) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 This shouldn’t still be happening very annoying, can only imagine they’ve offered the family something ridiculous, or despite all the upgrades to scouting the actual coaching is still considered shite at the academy. https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-lose-highly-rated-27567900 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
