We've had 4 keepers last season.

Training keepers are the new thing... Old pros who are just there for that reason and maybe there to take the strain of  Pope and the  damage to his shoulder

This weekend feels like it's been a long version of the player trading scene in Moneyball

 

:lol: Was watching this the other day funnily enough, for about the fourth time. Know absolutely nothing about baseball but it's probably one of my favourite films.

The Gordon thing really messes with people so much man :lol:

 

You probably misunderstood what very many thought about the Gordon signing at the time though, it's not about proving anyone wrong, my personal reasons were about how he came over on the pitch, his attitude, and he was quite cocky, there was even a moment where I thought to myself he'd already blown it at Nufc, when he had his tantrum at being subbed. Gordon has admitted himself on the overlap and many interviews he's done that he's happy, he was never happy at Everton and that reflected in his performance and attitude on the pitch, he's admitted he's matured massively in the last two years, and he's being managed well. I don't think anybody was questioning his ability when we signed him, but rather his attitude, so Antony Gordon proved nobody wrong or right, he proved to himself he can be the best. Newcastle fans will always back that character in a player.

It’s exhausting and I missed most of it yesterday

Minteh has been compared to Sadio Mane - both on the eye test and on the data. Bona fide wonderkid. 

That means he could develop into a beast of a striker, who finishes. All that while operating from our weakest position, RW. A Salah, a Palmer, a Saka. These are obviously the best in the PL and this is all hopeful hype.

I would prefer we let either or any of the following leave for PSR (providing replacements are sourced before the season starts):

 

Longstaff
Anderson
Wilson
Targett
Trippier
Dubravka
Lascelles
Krafth
Almiron
Murphy
Burn
Willock
Lewis
Hayden
Pope
Kuol 
Ashby

The only untouchables for me: 

Bruno, Isak, Botman, Gordon, Barnes, Tonali, Miley, Kelly, Hall, Livramento, Schar
 

Assume this is the post you refer to @STM ? Yeah, well no, it doesn’t remotely say what you claim it does (see bolded)… :facepalm:

I'm not going to dwell on this issue but I will say this..

 

He's not a bone-fide wonderkid because whilst the word wonderkid exists and the category of wonderkid exists, it's not an actual thing. Young footballers development doesn't work in such absolutes. Josh McEachran.

 

I'm sure he will become a very good footballer, I'm sure he'd have become a better football at Newcastle. 

 

It simply doesn't matter. We couldn't keep him for external reason. Cest la vie.

Nobody has suggested a wonderkid is an iron cast world class player a few years down the line :facepalm:

 

You said people had said he was absolutely certainly going to be as good as Mane. They haven’t. I wouldn’t expect you to admit you were wrong though.

I'm trying to be nice.

 

I always admit when I'm wrong. 

 

Your going to have look for bother elsewhere.

How are all medicals going today?

Are any deals officially confirmed yet?

Be all waiting on Chelsea saying they are ok

Been pretty reliably told that Gordon to Liverpool was a real possibility if those 2 deals hadn’t been agreed and that Bobby Clark was in the mix to come back.

 

This is amongst other plans b,c,d and more.

I hope this doesn't upset Gordon, he was our best player last season

How much would Gordon have to go for, assuming we needed to make around 60 million?
