If we had sold him in January I don’t think we would have been too fussed, but his form when he came into the team from then was fantastic and he really showed everyone what a player he is. It’s now going to be really hard to see him go and replace him. The difference a run in the team can make.

He’s probably made it harder for him to find a club now mind. His value has probably doubled since the last window.

Aye best of luck.

 

The only the thing I'm bothered about is Rafa getting the transfer fee to find a replacement.

 

Will end up at Watford, Palace, Brighton or West Ham IMO.

I got quite emotional at his substitution, yesterday, with the fans chanting his name. We're a classy lot, sometimes. Hope this kid gets the life he wants, don't like seeing him leave, but he's earned the right t do so with my warmest, and sincerest, best wishes.

As said before he will prefer a West Midlands club. I don’t think people realise how inaccessible these southern clubs people keep mentioning actually are to the South West which is where he wants to be based near to. He may as well stay at Newcastle which at least has good airport access.

Birmingham is like 20 minutes closer to Bristol than Watford by road. It's not a different time zone. Your obsession to be right over which club he'd rather go to is just weird.

Newcastle players have now gone their separate ways for the summer with an end of season trip to Las Vegas scrapped.

 

Hayden said: "I think it was called off. I wasn't too privy to it as I had already booked my holidays a couple of months ago.

 

"I think a few of the lads were going to go on it but it was cancelled.

 

"To be fair Mike Ashley came into the dressing room, shook everybody's hand and said thanks for the season, we said thanks back.

 

"He is making an effort and trying to do the right things."

 

Is he really though?

If he's attempted suicide I haven't heard about it.

Although Hayden stated earlier this month that there can be "no excuses" from the club not to sell him this summer, Benitez has suggested that the midfielder will only be allowed to depart should Newcastle receive a sufficient offer.

 

“I have been talking to him [about future]. I told him that in the end, if you have a contract, you have to see what happens and think about what you would like to do, whether it is this or that," Benitez said of Hayden's situation.

 

"It does not matter if you [as a journalist] want to go to another newspaper who will pay you more, we have to have the offer first.

 

"Fine, then you can talk to us and we can see where we are. I understand that Isaac has his personal issues. That is fine but, at the same time, we have to find the balance which is good for him, but also for the club.

 

"He’s a person that obviously has his own issues with his family that we know about. But football’s not so simple; it’s not a normal job.

 

"There are a lot of things you have to analyse. We will try to do the best for him and the best for us.”

 

Pushed as to whether that meant there were no guarantees Hayden would be able to leave this summer, Benitez replied: “I have a meeting this week [with Ashley] and then we will see.”

 

Asked if, in an ideal world where Hayden's personal circumstances did not necessitate the midfielder to relocate, Benitez would like to keep Hayden, the Spaniard said: “Remember that I signed him!

 

"After watching some clips [of him] and oof! In the contact, I was impressed and was checking, watching more videos.

 

"I spoke to a lot of people, then we signed him for a low fee. I told him then he could be the holding-midfielder for England. I said: 'If you progress, if you listen and if you do all the things I tell you [then you can play for England].'

 

"When he was not playing [earlier in the season], I was a bit disappointed because I thought he could continue growing. In the second part of the season, he has shown he has the potential.

 

“I will be the first one really pleased if I stay and he stays, but we have to find the solution for everyone.”

I mean, what's Hayden supposed to say, "He's a fat cunt and he's made a mess of things.  We had to disinfect our hands after we shook with him.  Some of the lads left when he started puking into a fake fireplace."

 

Yes. There's nothing in between those statements.

 

First sentence would suffice, anyway. At least if he was somewhat aware of all things Newcastle, the fans and the club.

That's a manager trying to drive the price up for a promising young player that everyone in the world knows is available for purchase. Which is fair enough; there's no doubts about him leaving. Given how vocal the lad has been about moving on, there'd be a risk of letting him go for something well beneath his value. So we need to give the impression it won't be a straightforward sale, even though it probably will be..

 

Positive comments from a Rafa point of view, too.
