Scoot Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 I hope they do all hate us. It doesn't bother me. All I'm concerned about is us as fans, the players and the club. Get me into St James Park tomorrow. Howsy the lads! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Fighting talk from Eddie, I like it. Never seen him so strong in his words. Saying the game should have ended earlier, kept referring to Isak's "second goal" as if he thinks it should have stood, other teams "not wanting to be seen to be helping us" transfer wise etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Honestly I'd rather he didn't come out with this stuff. I'm not sure it's productive in the long run to be whining - even if it's true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbee909 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 I seem to remember Fergie making the most of a siege mentality at Man Utd as a motivating factor for his team. Go for it Eddie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding other clubs, he was asked "is it fair to say..." and he just more or less confirmed that it was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 PL clubs rarely deal with each other especially the top 6. They see us as a threat, its why they didn't want the takeover to happen (like fuck was it on moral grounds), wanted us to go down last season and why they didn't want to negotiate with us. We have to look abroad for our players like most top clubs do which has gotten us Bruno, Isak and Botman. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 I hope it is worded a bit wrong. Of course no PL club wants to do us a favor. Why should they? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingxlnc Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 I do believe they thought Pulisic/Gallagher was possible (especially since Zakaria) but this suggests Chelsea didn't want to strengthen a competitor. I acutally think it was the Bruno transfer that made people take notice, that Sky Sports lady on Twitter said as much, both Liverpool and Man City were shocked by it. Isak is another one who most would think would be above our station so confirms to them that we're building something serious and will be a force to reckon within 2 years. Imagine in 4 more transfer windows time, assuming each window will have 2-3 first team replacements: Imagine Isak/Bruno/Botman level quality in the below positions Schar would have been replaced Tripper would now be back up Targett would have been replaced Almiron replaced Willock replaced ASM possibly replaced Joelinton possible replaced Pope possibly replaced Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Re the comments about other clubs; it was literally put to him by Edwards (and someone else, who chirped "they see you as a threat") and he basically just agreed. He hardly said anything about it tbh. Wasn't whiny and just reiterated the general idea that we can't have the piss taken out of us fees-wise.

ponsaelius Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 We're already public enemy #1 in the league. The media frenzy after the perceived timewasting and antics this week has fed into that. This just ramps it up further. I don't think a siege mentality helps when we're still 2-3 years away from having a team good enough to compete at the top. I think we need to be quiet and calm rather than stoking the fires with comments like that - even if it is true. We obviously had interest in Gallagher, Pulisic, Maitland-Niles on loan this week and were basically told where to go. I wouldn't even mention it.
