Pilko Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 We'll sign absolutely nobody, and I don't know why anyone would get their hopes up and expect us to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlies Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 The times (?) NUFC 360 @NUFC360 · 1h Rightly so. #nufc Times Sport @TimesSport Newcastle want Rafa Benitez to extend his stay - but @CaulkinTheTimes says the manager will not discuss it before the transfer window closes (link: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/sport/benitez-will-delay-contract-talks-until-transfer-window-closes-z5mvpn8d5) thetimes.co.uk/edition/sport/… 5 4 45 NUFC 360 @NUFC360 To add from this piece: It is understood that Benítez’s first choice this month is a striker who would cost £20 million, which would represent a record fee for Newcastle. They are hopeful, however, that a loan for Kenedy, the Chelsea winger, can now be completed. #NUFC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Apparently the striker Rafa wants is valued in the 20m region Slimani? Actually Schurrle would probably cost that much too. Maybe him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can name names all we want but I still struggle to believe we'll spend anything like 20m in this window Caulkin has a point: https://mobile.twitter.com/CaulkinTheTimes/status/955079791237058561 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Kenedy one is weird, we're not short on wingers/wide midfielders but certainly are in other areas. The one thing the few Liverpool fans I've spoke to about Rafa, they have said the same thing, you end up with a bit of lop sided squad if he gets to spend. He likes to rotate if he has the players to, sometimes to the bafflement of a supporter, as a player might be brilliant one week but then be on the bench or not in the 18 the next. Even in saying that the one thing they all added, they all loved him to bits and would have him back tomorrow if they could, a born winner who gets what the fans want who them proud of their team.

KaKa Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 It's different this time I can feel it. I think MA was thinking a takeover was going to go through even from the summer, as there were whispers even back then, and was stopping all spend due to that. Let's be hopeful. Would be pretty sweet if we get in some top quality man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really struggle to care about who we sign, the club is as good as dead to me until Ashley fucks off. His bullshit this week is just another reminder that despite us having Rafa, it's a club that's never going anywhere under him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His bullshit this week is just another reminder that despite us having Rafa, it's a club that's never going anywhere under him. Ah right, I agree with that of course - Ashley is in an unredeemable situation now with the club and he knows it. He also knows he can no longer afford to run a Premier League team and is probably for the first time feeling genuinely under pressure to get rid and clean his hands Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Think Pete Graves gets a raw deal by our fans, like. Don’t think it’s anything personal to Graves, it’s the result of a decade of cynicism, lies and spin. The lack of trust between the fans and the owner/minions is so ingrained that it’s inevitable. Sad, but these duplicitous cunts have created and fostered this negativity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
