Send Longstaff to Ajax He's the one I've wanted here since we were first linked under Rafa when we came back up. Should have had him then when he was £4m-ish. Athletic saying talks ongoing with Sevilla for Carlos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either buy into what the club is trying to do, or bugger off elsewhere. 1 hour ago, TRon said: I said character for this club for that reason. A lot of players from France/Spain/Italy want to be in London, that doesn't mean that they don't have character, just means that they are the wrong characters for Newcastle. Perhaps the wrong choice of phrase. Not sure about any of that. I suppose it's natural to want to live in London. But if he's prepared to talk then he's prepared to listen. Over to you Amanda.

Whether he joins us in summer is another thing I think his wages and fee and Chelsea only needing a short-term solution may work in our favour, that and Rafa seemingly wanting Longstaff. Fingers crossed it happens anyway! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Can't stand Digne. Excellent little left-back that he is, still a bit of a twat. If Howe really wants Kelly I'd be happy with that until summer, and then see what else is out there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always liked Everton and been good fun and good people up there for away days. The same as Liverpool fans. I do feel like there seemed to be a shift from their end towards disliking us. I’m basing this off fans online, which isn’t necessarily a fair reflection. But it seemed noticeable when they got Allardyce. Still, the more shit teams the better. Hopefully Leeds and Everton get dragged into it properly and we might have more of a chance to get out the shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Get Botman in too and maybe he will change his tune. Would be a good start showing that we mean business. If he's been reluctant before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emotic Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 If he's handed in a transfer request and needs to be sold on, we're in with a shout, IMHO. Not sure if Chelsea will splash out 20 mil plus for what would essentially be a covering LB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple of sessions to rehearse tactics and he can feature immediately against Watford. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) Him or Tagliafico. Happy with both. Slightly prefer Digne because of his left foot and knows the league just like Emotic said above. Edited January 7, 2022 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaztoon Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 He wants out of Everton because he's not playing.. don't understand him wanting the Chelsea move when he'll be going exactly the same there.. He plays every week here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't feel anything for them at all. In my 33 years of watching football they've never done or been anything. They had a brief period under Moyes when they were ok but that's it. Nothing, anonymous club! Their financial fairplay woes seem to be down to not being able to attract decent sponsorship because no one cares about them. Sad plight really.

Emotic Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Just now, ManDoon said: Yeah that’s fair, tbh the Dutch Journo on SSN essentially said Tagliafico is PL ready There's all that guff and hassle of uprooting yourself to settle in a new country too, for a foreign league player. No matter how good Tagliafico is (and I prefer him to Digne), Digne would be "plug n play" for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
