Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa joins AS Roma then Lyon

I just can't see it personally, adding an extra £50k or whatever to the wage bill while spending the Ba money on the fee. 

 

We'll never know I suppose, was obvious they wouldn't be best suited to playing alongside each other like.

The MYM deal did look like decent planning though.  Colo was getting on and fistpumps and Willo weren't up to scratch so we brought in a young, talented defender who had just captained his side to a championship.  Half a season learning under Colo and he'd be ready to slot straight in the next season and take over the captaincy if and when it became available.

 

I think that was the intention of the recruitment team anyway.  Unfortunately they didn't bargain on our esteemed leader deciding he was a reserve right back.

Impresses Roma that they wanted to tie up a permanent deal before the agreed 4.5m end-of-season option. NUFC facilitates the sale of an in-demand player by accepting a discounted 4m fee. :lol:

Surely this has to annoy Ashley. Can't be happy throwing money away.

It will be 4m + the 1m loan fee for MYM, a loss of 1.7m. Essentially peanuts to Ashley, considering we sold a few players for nice profits. Possibly the only way it would piss Ashley off is if MYM gets sold for big money as Roma did for Marquinhos and Benatia.

He needs to pay the 'peanuts' needed to sack the useless cesspit dwelling slime that's sending us down. He could have sold MYM for far higher and had the money back and then some. Really don't know what his stake in pardew is. What good is yes man if you are in the wrong league?

My guess is Pardew is Ashley's 'ideal' manager by far - does the PR work, takes the abuse in steed of Ashley, low wages, accepts he has little to no say in transfers incoming or outgoing, keeps the club in an acceptable league position or maybe safe enough so that SD would not lose the global PL viewership - and that he thinks he can't get a better manager with those 'qualities'.

Perfect opportunity for the press and journos to question the FUCK out of this decision. 6.7M signing, didn't get on/get chance in his preferred position. Had we done the same to Colo in 1.5 seasons he'd have been gone too. He then goes on to Roma and plays brilliantly so far and they want to sell him 4.0M - FUCKING JOKE. He's going to get the call-up back to France shortly. Colo, Saylor, and Willo won't be closer to their national teams will they?
