Lush Vlad Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I think blame should be apportioned to both sides. Not sure if it would be an equal share, but both sides have fucked up big time. The club were stupid enough to pursue a player, who wasn't in any sort of form, looked unsuited to English football and allegedly wasn't even keen on coming here. Certainly looks to be the case, TBH. McClaren has then barely played the bloke. After it has become apparent that we have slightly better options in front of him and after he's not really shown a great deal when he's actually had the chance. He then gets some stick off the fans at Watford. There's supposedly a bit of a fallout, Thauvin goes crying back to OM, asking them to take him back. It doesn't sound like there were any discussions to reconcile their differences, or much of a fight to keep him. Thauvin is just as guilty of deciding he's had enough so early on in his career here. We then go and spend ANOTHER £12m on Townsend. Thauvin fucks off home. What. A. Mess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I do wonder what would have happened if we'd made him a starter and showed a bit of faith in him like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Bailey Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Good luck to the lad. I'm sure he will be happier and perform better back in France. I'm one of the minority (looking at the poll on here) who have never rated him, nor thought he had shown anything at all to justify his place in the team or indeed at the club. Think Vlads post sums it up nicely, a very poor transfer and tawdry episode from virtually every parties perspective. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leazes_End_Mag Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Pretty sure that NUFC have agreed to loan Thauvin but have denied the right to buy option as part of the deal which means he'll more then likely be back here in 6 month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasy Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Not agreeing to a fee now is totally the right thing to do and I'm glad we've gone that way if true, he's on a long term contract here so we should be in no hurry to get rid of him. Even if he doesn't end up back here playing first team Football will give us a much better chance of getting a good fee for him so no point in agreeing some shitty little fee now.

mrmojorisin75 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I do wonder what would have happened if we'd made him a starter and showed a bit of faith in him like. Team was fucking awful during that period like, that's the problem as it was with Cabella when he got his "chance". Now is the time to be playing him now we have a midfield and Wijnaldum has a position, but we're binning him for Townsend. Frustrating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he'll be delighted to be leaving the south of france in July to come back to Newcastle where he's been as welcome as a dose of the clap.

TRon Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 He's not coming back like, if he's no use to us now I don't see what will have changed in 6 months time. If he does come back it will only be to pick up his wages like Marveaux. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing more than interesting because he hadn't been "tearing it up" directly before we bought him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Wasn't he getting a lot of stick of Marseilles fans as well before he left? I can't see the abuse at Watford being the reason for him leaving only that it is being used as an excuse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Past the stage of getting affiliated to players now. It's a shame it's not worked out so far but if the club are already just thinking about cutting their losses and going down the Townsend route then meh.

Jack Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 If he goes back to Marseille, it's not for 6 months but 3 and a half months, there's not much games left considering he's not fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will need some time to get a good physical condition and to play with confidence. I think there's no point to loan him to Marseille, he would be the same once he comes back.
