Infinitely Content Posted July 26, 2025 Share Posted July 26, 2025 I think Paqueta is absolutely class like. If he's available for a reasonable fee and is cleared of the betting charges, I'd be disappointed if we didn't try to sign him. Would offer us a lot, genuine central midfield cover fitting our current system, whilst also being a genuine option in a 4231. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be peak Newcastle to finally get someone from our 2022 shopping list only for him to be banned for life before he's even made his debut.

Infinitely Content Posted July 26, 2025 Share Posted July 26, 2025 Actually, I've just remembered how annoying it is that his name gets constantly mispronounced as Paque-tar, when it's actually Paque-tah. So it's a pass from me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 26, 2025 Share Posted July 26, 2025 22 hours ago, Stifler said: Was he really an asshole? He was asked a question about what he brings and what he is going to bring differently to the club, he answered it by saying that the clubs previous approach to transfers wasn’t fit for purpose long term and that the club had moved on from the position they were in when the takeover happened, and what they needed going forward. Fans and then the media after that all pissed their pants and thought that it was a dig at Howe. Thats what he said in public, his original speech was far from endearing to those who were around and lost them from day one sadly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted July 26, 2025 Share Posted July 26, 2025 Some might have it as a controversial opinion but I honestly think Howe would make Jackson into a better forward than he is. As long as hes not Isaks replacement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
