Davide Santon (now retired)


Recommended Posts

I could actually see him going back to Italy tbh. Wouldn't be surprised if Pardew wanted a natural left footer.

 

It could happen, but while he's conkers deep in a local lass we can hope she'll keep him here.

 

Really? Think she'd turn down a move to Milan? :lol:

You've obviously never seen the bright lights of Pegswood.

 

Pegswood >>>>>>> Milan.

 

Never really understood why Milan is placed on some kind of pedestal and is supposed to equal "glamour". It's a very industrial city and not particularly attractive.

Very few Italians would choose to live there rather than one of the coastal cities like say Genoa for example.

I'd say Newcastle is a much nicer city than Milan, albeit smaller of course.

Tbf i've been to Milan and loved it, but i do see why some wouldn't. I think Milan is probably better when you have money! Like disproportionately so compared to Newcastle. I love both so meh! Jesmond > Lake Como

Me too, if we sold for no loss & got in some LB from Ligue 1 as the replacement for a lesser fee/wages, guess who wins again.

 

I like him as a player but 2 right footers on the left isn't for me, especially when Santon can barely use his left.

I doubt Pardew wants anything other than to have Santon available every week. If he wanted a natural left footer he could have moved Santon over to the right, and/or not signed Debuchy.

 

This. Pardew has faith in wor Davigay and tbf, he returned to form against Norwich

This nonsensical view seems to be spreading across the forum like wildfire lately.

While yes, the widely held opinion is that we should have invested more earlier, yes like almost every club we have a salary budget and of course the people at the top would not be doing their jobs properly if they were not trying to strike the most beneficial deals,  it should also be realised that outside of the CL elite and one or two clubs who have found sugar daddies Newcastle are paying very competitive salaries.

We simply wouldn't be signing and re-signing the players we are, if we weren't.

Well said. People get away with this logic-free negativity on a mass scale on here.
