Guest palnese Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 We have 4 keepers at the moment. Totally understandable if the club wants to get rid of one or two before bringing in a new one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/massadio-haidara-latest-player-told-13406120 Massadio Haidara is the latest player to be told his time is up at Newcastle United French full-back Massadio Haidara is in talks with St Etienne ahead of his exit from St James' Park BY LEE RYDER 13:00, 30 JUL 2017 Massadio Haidara has been told his time is up at Newcastle United. The French left-back did not feature in any of the Magpies’ last three pre-season friendly games after being handed a surprise start in the 2-1 win at Heart of Midlothian. Haidara has just one year left on his current deal and isn’t being offered a new contract with the player informed that his representatives must find him a new club. The defender was used sparingly by United last season and made just three appearances after an injury-affected two years on Tyneside. Haidara has made 50 first-team appearances since arriving at the club from Nancy in 2013 but has now been offered to French clubs, including St Etienne who claim they are in “advanced talks” with United over his signature. The 24-year-old is just one of a group of players who have been told by Rafa Benitez they can leave this summer. Senegal midfielder Henri Saivet, Achraf Lazaar, Emmanuel Riviere and Tim Krul are also on their way out of the club after being told the train at the club’s Academy. Benitez said recently: “When you have too many players what you can do is talk with them straight. “That’s what I did. I told them: ‘Listen, we have too many players, my idea is this and you have to be sure you understand what we need to do’. “You have to maximise the time you have with your players so therefore if somebody has to train at the Academy it is not personal, it is professional.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 His time certainly is up. Just too injured for a player with talent, but ultimately not the fitness to be counted on. Hope he gets a decent move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Haidara was ruined by horrible little cunt Macmanaman. Didn't seem the same player after that challenge. Defended by that twat Martinez too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 He'd played 4 games for us in which we were unbeaten, had kept three clean sheets and conceded one goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Actually he only played 16 minutes of the game we conceded and it wasn't when he was on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Wasn't he running like 3 days after the tackle? To say that ruined him is absurd even by N-O standards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Wasn't he running like 3 days after the tackle? To say that ruined him is absurd even by N-O standards. Aye, I do think that challenge knocked him but don't think he ever looked like he would be good enough anyway. More hope than anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentally, I'm sure it had a massive impact, you could even see it in his body language going into every tackle since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Dare I say that if an admittedly awful tackle at the JJB/DW causing no physical injury ruined him mentally, there was fuck all to ruin in the first place. He has some ability but he's never in a billion years a PL defender. Another stupid Carr signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The initial scare will have done enough damage unfortunately and he doesn't seem a good fit for this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reasonable signing in theory; as in we needed a left-back because Santon was never gonna cut it and Haidara might've developed into something decent. But it was ultimately one of countless bad calls.

Guest Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 It was his first Premier League start, he was a bairn still, had probably been told to expect a more physical game, then had some thug almost snap his leg. I could see why that would play on the mind like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Play on his mind years later? Shut the f*** up, man. He's a professional athlete in a contact sport. Not necessarily that specific incident. But it will have started a cascading effect to etch away at his confidence little by little and his game and fitness will have suffered as a result. You might want to think professional athletes are homogenous robots, but I work with them, especially athletes recovering from injury and you would be surprised at the impact some injuries can have on some personalities.
