sushimonster85 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 What's happened with Danjuma? In the space of 12 months he has gone from being linked with the likes of Man Utd and Spurs, to seemingly having to pick between Everton and Bournemouth.

And when there's no leaks because the club is being run like a professional organisation for the first time in decades, they're left scratching their arses because unless there's a leak from the selling club that they can get hold of, they're left writing vacuous shit like "5 reasons Jacob Murphy has had a haircut".

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 There’s really no chance of someone like Lee Ryder getting information from a professionally run transfer department. Maybe he’ll get it late from someone who works as a driver or at the training ground or something, but he’ll never get it early. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sushimonster85 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Aye, wouldn't be too harsh on them, just means things are far more locked down. Have been ever since Ashworth came in. Isak was the one that really blew my mind. Few rumours early in the Summer but nothing solid, then the next thing we know it's basically done with the player on his way over to sign.

Chicken Dancer Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 It'll be lush when we have a proper squad and almost 2 XI's. Got to think, we're 3rd top with Murphy and Wood making 19 and 18 appearances in the league this season respectively (granted mostly from the bench). That's why Howe deserves all the credit in the world. Having Wilson to back up Isak or vice versa is a 'champagne problem' to coin an Eales phrase. Soon enough, we will have more or less 2 strong options for most positions. Be mint. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stozo Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 If you were let’s say Moussa Diaby and wanted a nice day out in Newcastle, presumably you’d want to use Dortmund airport which is a mere hour away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 It's very rare that a player turns up in a plane without the press getting wind of it before hand. IF that plane has anything to do with football, its more likely an agent coming in for talks. Remember we had Seskos agent on Tyneside, it doesn't always mean anything significant. I'd wager that Ashworth and Nickson have multiple discussions everyday with agents and intermediaries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(*Subject to a steward's inquiry on his birth certificate) I mean, it's just a framework until we sign Osimhen in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paully Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I wanted to go on loan in January, because I wasn't playing - again - and Newcastle was on the cards,' Lingard told the podcast. 'The deal was done and everything, but obviously the United squad wasn't big enough. 'So, they let a couple of players go out on loan, but when it came to me, John Murtough rang and said "No, you're not going on loan." 'I was like, "Well, he's gone on loan - let me go and enjoy my football as I'm not playing here." He asked "What do you want, days off?" and I said "No, I just want to go and play football." https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-11652709/Jesse-Lingard-SLAMS-state-Man-United-accuses-briefing-against-press.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
