Waiting to hear Man United out doesn't sound like 'desperate to play for Newcastle' though eh. :/


They’ll happily dump an extra 50k a week on whatever we offer.

 

No brainer really, but depends what he wants from life.

Virtually all the media reporting Watkins to Man Utd so we should have a free run on him which we’ll no doubt balls up!


 

We could fall in a barrel of tits and come out sucking our own cock at this rate

To paraphrase Wor Sid the Sexist:

 

If NUFC fell into a barrel of tits, we’d come out sucking our thumb.

On a side note what is going on with Villa ? Not signed a player all summer and now selling their best player to Man United , are the Villa fans as pissed off as we are at PSR and how the transfer window has gone ?

Gambled the house on getting CL again for this season. Lost.

Mullered by their wage bill and PSR. Barring Ramsey they’ve emptied their kennels of saleable puppy farmed academy players (unlike City, Chelsea and Liverpool) meaning it’s Rogers or Watkins as their other most saleable assets.


In Watkins case I don’t think he’s forgiven them for prioritising playing on loan and never staying Rashford ahead of him for the PSG game. Therefore cash in.

Is Watkins heading to Villa?

Are people happy to have this bloke as the Isak replacement? For me it's massively underwhelming.

We are never going to straight up replace Isak. But Wissa + this guy goes a long way. Think it's an improvement compared to last season atleast. Though not as good as when Isak and Wilson both were in form.

I suppose you'd hope Sesko and Wissa combined would offer more than Isak and Wilson combined considering how shit Wilson was last season.

Agreed as long as we get 2 in the lack of goals from Wilson last season will likely mean we aren't going to get 1 player getting isaks  output if he goes but may quite easily be achieved sharing the load between 2 players instead. 

 

Or that's what I am telling myself.

I have no idea on the names of the company. One of the lads I play football with runs a company that’s been asked to quote for a fit out, specifically of the kitchen and hospitality areas of both the new training ground and new stadium (and are actively competing to win those contracts, when they happen). I don’t know him well enough to know the name of the company (or think to ask).
 

I assume that means that designs are in place for both but don’t know for sure 🤷‍♂️

 

Also, on the stadium front, I know for sure that the hospitality team were treated to artist impressions and designs for the new stadium back in March, pre cup final. Not sure whether they were final designs or just concepts though.

You can’t quote without designs or the potential design, it’s a waste of time - it’s a thumb-suck at that point.  I think he might be spinning a yarn.

Quickest/easiest way to think about it, in terms of PSR fuckedness, they're basically us last Summer. Maybe even worse.

Matt Law reckons they’re not serious. He’s pretty good with Villa

40m for watkins is indeed not serious. 

 

It's one of those situations where he's worth more to Villa in terms of valuation than he is to Manchester united.
