So he says if he really loved the club he would sign the new contract offered to him (no doubt he is enjoying it here , but he loves money / trophies more) he’s obviously holding out for more Eddie Howes body language and words ….we hope we can find a solution Makes me think Bruno / his agent not happy with latest contract offer He will be off in a few years if Real Madrid come on for him He was outstanding the first twelve months dropped off after his injury and was dallying on the ball a lot Hope he turns it back on again as probably my favourite alongside Isak. I am sure a resolution will be found but if we don’t win things his head will turn , which is understandable to be fair as he has huge ambitions Hope we can buy more players in the future on his wavelength and win a trophy or two.

RobsonsWonderland Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 I reckon it will get sorted after the window... Hard to tell new players we only pay XXX per week if we have increased his to 30/50k more. And then you have the knock on effect of Isak etc wanting an uplift. Maybe this is what maxis sale will cover... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a bit out of context, but if a partner wasn't giving you back what you're worth, would you commit further? Even if you did love them? Can't blame Bruno or his agent for wanting their worth. He was playing through injury most of last season. At some point, we're gonna have to pay higher wages. We're in a transitional period as a club where we're growing, with a lot of players playing out of their skins with mid-level wages. A lot of these would deservedly want wage rises if Bruno had one. With this and FFP I'm sure this is where the problem lies, or else Bruno would of been tied down for another 5 years long ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I teach English as a foreign language and Brazilians will usually say "I have a doubt" in situations where a native speaker would use "I'm not sure", even if they are pretty high level students.

LV Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Seems pretty damn settled on Tyneside to me, with all his family here and the love he (and his dad) gets from the fans. Not worried in the slightest about any of this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are underpaying many of our core players, hope we can manage it well without any unnecessary drama in the following years. Glad Howe appears to be really good at stuff like this but it's almost inevitable that at some point we will have problems related to the wage structure.

Dr Jinx Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 He’s already on decent money and he’s no idiot. If we can get top 4 again that changes the money landscape massively. Now is not the time to have a gun to the clubs head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBottle Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Nothing to see nor to worry about here. If he leaves it won’t be this summer. I don’t think his performances in the second half of the season were particularly fantastic in all honesty - he’d be on a much stronger footing to demand a massive hike if they had been. Players come and go - the best thing about having an ownership which is competent is that I’m far less worried about players leaving than I would be under Ashley. Ashley saw only profit; this board will sell players if it’s the best thing for the club. I’m aware that people are tying themselves to the notion that the top quality players we sign these days will be here long term. I’m not convinced this is the correct assumption - there is likely to be a full recycle over the next half decade as huge profits from transfer will just build the club further. Every achievement at the moment is like a bonus - it’ll be another few years before the commercials have us competing with the big boys. We’ll get there, though.

Had to agree to this , he's great for us, as much as i love him, it's pretty hard to see him starting ahead of Bellingham, Tchouameni & Camavinga Edited July 30, 2023 by teohgk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
