U2 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Figured he was away by how little Rafa has been using him in preseason. Hatem mIII was a dud. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikky Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 We really really need a couple of attacking midfielders / wingers if he leaves. This: we are very short on creativity; this is the one aspect that still worries me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I'm not fussed either way. Looks like we were only prepared to sell him if we got our money back, and it's yet more evidence that we are not prepared to panic in the transfer market any more. No player leaves except on our terms. Love it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Bummer, if he goes, because I still wanted (hoped) he'd come good and was a big fan of his in France. However, that's a hell of a fee all-things considered given his past 12 months+. I hope we sign some exciting attackers now though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 It's more difficult to sign players now compared to a few weeks ago. People want even crazier money now. Fingers crossed that we can get the ones we want in soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed that we can get the ones we want in soon. Don't worry, we will. Easy to forget that there's still over a month to go and a lot of teams still have a lot of business to be done. Rafa said we are " close " so i have no doubt that there will be a few more signings yet before September arrives. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 "Lazio have reached an agreement with Newcastle United for the signature of French winger Florian Thauvin, according to Italian daily Corriere dello Sport. It has been claimed that the Serie A giants have agreed to pay a loan fee of €2m for Thauvin, and are obligated to make the move permanent at a later date for €11m." I know they are far from reliable but i thought i'd post it anyway. Probably BS. I read this in the voice of James Richardson sitting in the sun outside a Milan cafe and it's believable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 That'll be 4 attacking midfielders/wingers out with him and Sissoko and one in with Ritchie. Going to need at least another 2 in now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to need at least another 2 in now Sissoko's still here, but yeah I'm sure there'll be at least one more wide man coming in. We've got Gayle and Aarons who could do it at a pinch for now. I'm not counting Sammy Ameobi because he's not good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Would love it if Rafa signed a few talented ones from Spain for example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 A lad that clearly doesn't want to be here (if various reports are believed), I'm sure we could find someone of equal quality that does. Not arsed if he leaves, I'll just be disappointed as I had high hopes for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubestationatmidnight Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Hope we don't get stuck with someone who Dosent want to be here due to asking for 12m when we could sell him for 8 and replace him with someone who does and Is also suited to English football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 That video Looks such a simple task as well. In regards to flogging him, I'd be happy if he goes. He didn't want to be here in the first place, such a daft transfer for us to sign off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I'd rather we kept him than loaning him out for the season for £1.5 million as the article on the previous page stated Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altamullan Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 In a strange old world six degrees of separation kinda thingy: "Tobin is not an indigenous Irish name, but the family can be regarded as having become completely hibernicized. Its Irish form, Toibn, is a gaelicized version of the Norman 'St Aubyn.' Another interpretation is that the name was first called de St. Aubyn and the original bearers were from Aubyn, in Brittany, France." We now just need to sell him to Bohemians (unless there's a St Aubyn FC on Jersey??) and all will be right with the world. Need Minhisa to do some more prophetizing malarkey: "when the moon shines low on the Liffey and Tobin's lass swallows me baguette, wor Flor will return whence he came, and the Toon will win something yet."
