I doubt we would offer the same (or more) wages as Newcastle - they just seem to throw money at players. Would love to see their wage bill!
BUT
It would be really funny to strengthen our defence by nicking Diame at the last minute after weakening theirs by selling them Clark..... or in fact, using the Clark money to buy Diame :-)
Agreed - 5 years???? Madness!!!!!!
Given his tweet about Newcastle moving in the right direction, it would be hilarious if we got promoted and they didn't. Mind you that would be hilarious anyway! :-) Good luck Clark, you are going to need it.
So you have got to think that the quality of Newcastles team/squad has dropped/will drop vs last season (unless they have unearthed a couple of gems - although that link doesn't show anyone with that potential), whereas our could only go up (LOL - even if we sold all the players and fielded a team of kittens).
It looks like (on the face of it) they are doing what we did last year with the Benteke and Snake money.
3-4 more decent signings and it could be a very good season.
Apologies, it wasn't specifically aimed at you, I was responding to the post not the person - It was in relation to the tweet from Murphy being put forward as evidence that we had failed in our attempts to sign someone "better".
I has a moment of being sick of all the negativity (and even now there is still some) about what is a very good, positive signing for us.
No offence intended directly at you sir.
its called sarcasm. People were saying that we either aren't trying to get, or aren't able to get the players that they think we want. All based on one tweet from Pat Murphy who has got this one wrong....... (Look at his tweets over the course of yesterday).
Getting sick of people wetting themselves over the fact that we have only signed three players and calling Xia out as a fraud. Chill out and see how the rest of the window goes.
And also very young. These things will improve with more game time at a higher level. Really looking forward to seeing this kid get a chance this season.
I KNOW!!!!!!
This bastard, pretending to spend money on a striker, whilst all the time, like, planning to stitch us up and sell off everything and make us a laughing stock and stuff
WOW!!!!! That proves it. We are shit, everything is shit, we have no money. RDM OUT Xia is a fraud OUT OUT OUT
Can't remember the last time Pat Murphy got something right.
Until it appears on Xia's twitter feed, it didn't happen.
Oh, OK cool. There is speculation we don't like the sound of. I shan't lose any sleep tonight. For a minute, the way it was posted I thought it might have been fact.
So glad we have agreed that it is speculation, and as such, meaningless.
^ Errrr we do have players that can cross a ball, Armavi, Traore, Grealish?????? all wide players with an ability to cross a ball...... also if the worst came to the worst Bacuna and Sinclair....
Had three Kebabs on his way to the medical (was driven there by Gabby).....
See how easy it is to make shit up? Nothing anywhere on the net about him knocking us back for Norwich.
