Keggy_Keagal Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 We've too may players who act like top class players but aren't playing like them. Bruno and Joelinton are excluded from that . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HayDen Traces Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 People take this shit way too personally. He was outstanding for us up until the last 3/4 months of his time with us. He's an elite player and we're not yet, we might never be. He's going into his prime years and most of the top clubs would want him when we're not likely to even be playing in Europe next season. But players the class of Sandro were the type I thought I'd never see pull on the black and white again. Lets not usher them out the door. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtua Stiva Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 He’s at that age and profile where he’s going to want a very big contract and sadly, we just can’t give them what they want yet. Hopefully we’ve learned from Isak and hopefully, Tonali has at least give us a few months heads up. Best thing we can hope for is a big fee and money reinvested sensibly this time. The continuing emergence of Miley and the upturn in Ramsey could make this one slightly easier to swallow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The player refused to play for us and we took £130million off them. And what's it got to do with Tonali? I'd he not considering his options if we don't sell Isak to Liverpool?

The Prophet Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 1 hour ago, Mattoon said: Let's be honest it's nothing to do with Champions League, wanting to win things or playing for the best team possible, it's a cattle auction on who can line the pockets faster and quicker and we can't match the "big boys" on wages that's the bottom line. It's a short career, you can't blame the players for wanting to make as much as they can to set themselves up for the rest of their lives. Before we vilify and ostracise Sandro, let's see what happens over the summer, also, let's not rewrite history, he was instrumental in getting us into the Champions League last season. Not seen anyone suggest otherwise to be fair. Part of the frustration is that he's been unable to recapture that form (which could be for a variety of reasons).

And what's it got to do with Tonali? I'd he not considering his options if we don't sell Isak to Liverpool? I agree with you on a lot of things, but don't think we'll ever see eye to eye on this one. We've discussed before. The club's response means having a four year contract, a five year contract, or a six year contract with a purple is effectively worthless. A cartel club just needs to flash their wallet, and there is a proven blueprint to agitate successfully for a move. The only long-term vision of success, I can think of, which can withstand that squad-building vulnerability is a) we have a squad full of people as committed to Newcastle as Dan Burn or b) PSR gets scrapped. Neither feels realistic. Yes we got a lot of money, but this season has been an almost perfect illustration of the false economy of transfer fees. (It's all about wages. £130m does not provide replacement value for a star, because you can't afford a new star's wages). I hope I'm wrong but I can't help but feel the club's lack of resolve was a horrible precedent to set in an environment when the deck is already so stacked against non-cartel clubs. The next part is a bit tongue in cheek: Would we that much different this season if we hadn't bought Wissa and Elanga? Isak sulks until November, then started playing.
