Once it became clear that their position had softened, we got the deal done quickly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBottle Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 I get the impression that we'll use this window for significant squad strengthening rather than one or two 'marquee' signings. Total guess mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 1 hour ago, Chicken Dancer said: You’re such an arrogant arsehole at times like Nobody in their right mind believes we’re signing Messi, but to call people on a forum childish for making a few comments about signing football’s greatest ever player…2 years ago we had Bruce with Jeff Hendrick in the middle. To even have Messi’s name mentioned in the same sentence as Newcastle is mental enough, despite quite clearly being bullshit. Let people just enjoy it man. Not everything has to be so serious all the time. Your posts are constantly littered with patronising comments as well. Really do think you’re the fountain of footballing knowledge. Maybe you should start a YouTube channel? It's really hard to believe what some of you come up with at times. You only claim I'm arrogant because you can't handle anyone disagreeing with you or finding a take of yours to be a bit silly. That's your issue. That's your ego. When I was sticking up for Joelinton back in the day I got endless shit for it. But that was all fine yeah? You guys weren't being patronising or arrogant at all then we're you. More recently because I commented on how McTominay might fit into Howe's system and how it would make sense why he would go after him, again endless shit about it all the time. But I suppose that wasn't you lot being patronising or arrogant. Please just spare me the whining man. Yes, I think wanting to sign Messi at this stage of his career is extremely short sighted and is a childish/immature view just because as many of you stated, you just want to be able to say you saw him in the Newcastle shirt. In the grand scheme of things that's just my opinion though, so get over it, and stop with the crying man. You lot have a grand old time when your dishing out cheeky digs, but don't seem to be able to handle it when it's the other way. It's pretty pathetic.

midds Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Can I suggest either take the squabbles to pms or just ignore each other lads?

It really was never any kind of argument really. Just wish folks would stop acting as if anything I've done/said is different from what they have done/said in the past. It's ridiculous.

I read that the entire RB model relies on the player trading and (yes big fees) they have to be simple to deal with on both ends to make sure the model works. Re: Szo, he’s such an elegant and technical player. Looks pacy, direct, very creative and his confidence is second to none. He’s my #1 choice for a RW / AM option tbh. Give him the ability to link with Trippier and Bruno. Ooof. Too clean. He honestly seems good enough to play as an attacking 8 as well as 10 and on both flanks.

buzza Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Lads, to be honest I haven’t enjoyed coming into this thread the past couple of days because it has been completely hijacked by a “silly” squable and the inability of anyone to draw a line under it. please, for the sake of the thread continuing to be readable, be generous and call it a day… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikky Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Say we sign Big Dom - do people think his main role will be as a wide forward? A bit like a Big Joe - meaning we will most likely sign 2 more mids (Veiga plus 1) and possibly a 3 positional forward which I am assuming J Pedro would have been Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
