Marc Guehi

[Paully]

There is no way that this isn’t going through - our first bid was two weeks ago today! 
 

Not a chance we’ve wasted two weeks if we aren’t 100% certain that he wants to come!

Found these comments interesting from Howe:

 

“There are two ways to look at it,” said Howe, whose side kick off the new Premier League season against Southampton tomorrow. “If you believe in the deal, believe in the player and it’s still within your financial structure, then yes, 100 per cent, you keep working on it.

 

“But there are also times where we have to go, ‘Okay, that’s too much’, and we’ve done that plenty of times in the last two-and-a-half years. People might not have found out about that, but we’ve had to switch targets. It depends on the deal and the amount of money that you’re going to spend.”

Sounds like the clubs knows what its doing to me.

[Away Toon]

For the price reported, he'll need to be pretty much world class from the start and imo he's not at that level. Whether there will be any money left over to buy a new RW seems doubtful as well. Hope for once the club knows what it's doing.

For once? They've barely put a foot wrong since they got here? 

[Ginola14]

think this will be a hugely important signing for us if it goes through, just brings that extra bit of quality and depth to the squad 

 

if the team can get back to its defensive solidity of 22/23 and maintain the prolific goalscoring of last season then we're in for a really good season 

[gbandit]

If you’re at the point where you think the club has made countless blunders in the last few years then just give up following the sport. How negative do you have to be to come in with that attitude after the last two years and a bit

If this was true we would have won something and would be in Europe this season. Harsh maybe but true nevertheless.

They put a foot very wrong with the PSR situation at the end of the season and had to scramble to fix it.

Continue to embrace failure and not winning fuck all since 1969, hope it makes you happy.

By that logic if it was the first / only time the club has put a foot correctly, we would be languishing in Championship or League 1

after being relegated the season the new owners arrived.

Sound like the kind of bloke that wins a million pound on the lottery and complains it was two million last week.

Wait

 

What

 

An absolutely key part of their decision making is for Darren Eales to log into N-O to see if the expert scouts, expert stat nonces, expert FFP nonces, expert tactics nonces and expert transfer negotiators all approve of deal

 

Why’s Eddie not mentioning that ?

in terms of signings under Howe, imo almost all of them have been a success, which I believe is quite rare for most clubs 

 

most here seemed to be against Gordon signing at the time and quite a few said Isak was too expensive 

 

maybe I'm overly optimistic but I reckon this will prove to be another great signing 

 

 

 

[Away Toon]

I'm sure signing Guehi will improve us, it's whether it will improve us enough to get us back into Europe this season. No europe again will mean a lot of changes at the club and a lot of them we won't like.

We only demand a club that tries writ large and proud here folks. Had it ever occured to you that other teams also have a say in how these things play out? 

[Away Toon]

It' about time we changed that to we only demand a club that wins something, anything at all really. Even the much diminished league cup will do.

It's less than 3 years since Steve Bruce had us at the foot of the league, free falling towards relegation, with the club having no plans, no hope, and no ambition. 

 

Your post isn't harsh, it's clueless.

So in your opinion the club didn't know what it was doing when they signed Trippier, Bruno, Isak and Gordon? You don't think they've proven to be quite astute signings?

It seems to be realism, as they are realists. Well, that is what they will tell you.

[Ikon]

How much did VVD cost Liverpool ages ago? I remember most people thinking it was a batshit crazy price at the time. 

[Ginola14]

what I hate most about fans of other clubs such as MU, Liverpool etc is their sense of entitlement 

 

unfortunately it seems a lot of Newcastle fans are no different
