STM Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 IMO, you have to take the money. We MUST have someone in our sights who we can sign for 15m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Still can't get my head around this one at all. Like I said yesterday though, I can't help but feel it's Rafa that doesn't want him here anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 This is definitely going to be our Milner moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said yesterday though, I can't help but feel it's Rafa that doesn't want him here anymore. Aye I was feeling to same. Something's felt odd with Gayle for a while now.

STM Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Aye, Rafa has lost his faith in Gayle. That much is clear IMO. Probably to do with fitness, more than anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Swift Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Still can't get my head around this one at all. Like I said yesterday though, I can't help but feel it's Rafa that doesn't want him here anymore. Gayle isn't a Benitez type striker, IMO. His hold up play isn't good enough.

steve_69 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I can see this being the transfer that makes or breaks the board's relationship with Rafa. Surely he'll only be prepared to let Gayle go if he has someone else lined up. If the board fuck about and stop the replacement coming in it'll be the straw that broke the camel's back. We'll have around £30-40m in the coffers if this goes through and a decent budget for wages. No excuses! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 He wants to stay according to Ryder. Of course he wants to stay. Newcastle number 9, or Fulham? No contest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 We need the money for a striker if he goes. That wouldn't help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Swap for cairney? A bit like buying a gun in exchange for all your bullets though, innit? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Still can't get my head around this one at all. Like I said yesterday though, I can't help but feel it's Rafa that doesn't want him here anymore. It's quite clear that Rafa doesn't think he can be as effective in the PL. Add to that he's one of our most saleable assets, it makes sense to get maximum value for him and use the funds to strengthen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I really do like Gayle, but his fitness problems are a concern. I'd accept if Rafa had someone lined up of his choice, who would actually be purchased in the next week or so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Just think of the four £4m signings we could make if we sell him. Ohh the joys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Not particularly happy about this one like. Piles of deadwood to shift and we sell one of our best players from last season the day before deadline day. Seems ridiculous tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperFlat Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I really do like Gayle, but his fitness problems are a concern. I'd accept if Rafa had someone lined up of his choice, who would actually be purchased in the next week or so. Or, say, by 11pm tomorrow? Still very, very uneasy about all of this.

We'll have around £30-40m in the coffers if this goes through and a decent budget for wages. No excuses! Again, why do people think that we'll have that money? We sell players in installments and buy them upfront. If we sell Gayle now Rafa will see about £5m of the fee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Rafa must have identified replacements already. No question about that. Just a matter of time and willingness. I do think he wants to sell Gayle, not the other way round. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
