Tubestationatmidnight Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Not surprised we have had no bids with the asking price at least 10m too high. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 So we keep a £15m player who'll probably score about 15 next season even if he's not arsed. Win-win situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milburn Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Loving this attitude from the club. We don't have[/] to sell anyone. Five years ago... “The problem is that where we are now financially means that we can never really fulfill the expectations of the fans. They have memories of European football but the gap is getting bigger as the years go by. “It is becoming difficult to compete with the top clubs, but that is not to say we can’t compete at the level we are at, but we are always vulnerable to the bigger clubs as Andy Carroll’s move proved."

Wallace Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Never understood the club's attitude before as I thought it put us in a weak position when openly touting the players. Every club - even the likes of Man Utd are vulnerable if bigger clubs come calling for their players so there is no need to advertise the fact as Pardew regularly did.

joeyt Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 It meant Pardew had something to blame and lowered expectations that's why he did it so regularly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I've never understood the fascination with Lucas. I've seen him have some good games, fine. But some people rate him way too highly. He's the definition of average midfielder. Better than what we have, and I'd probably get a shirt with his name on the back for the sake of it, but he's not class by any means. IMO I've never really paid that much attention to him before, but maybe he's the diametric opposite of Wijnaldum. Not the same silky touch or obvious class, but heavily involved and gets stuck in. Our defensive midfield is still short IMO, only Tiote has the physical presence required and he's probably going to be sold. If Rafa rates him he probably has good reason.

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 It doesn't really make any difference to us how well or not he goes on to play for Liverpool. As soon as we were Relegated we knew he'd be leaving. Maximising the fee for him was the best NUFC could make of the situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Still though, should have accepted £15m for him of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
