Also cant be easy seeing Tonali come in and absolutely take the piss

I think there was a point when Longstaff looked good as a midfield destroyer. He was reading the game well, breaking up play and covering a lot of ground for us when the team was doing well. That was only going to last for a while though, because like Almiron, the technical and physical attributes just aren't there to be a regular start for a CL/cup winning side (😎) Hopefully the likes of Everton, West Ham will stump up 20M or so and he goes onto have a decent career with them.

The real United v Manchester reds - Thy choicest gifts in store
aimaad22 replied to Dr Gloom's topic in Newcastle Forum
Aye I noticed Sky and the like have done more segments on 'can they keep their best players?' since yesterday. Entitled deluded wankers. Also I think it was Wright who was saying 'can they consistently challenge the big six now'? Didn't have time to notice we're odds on to finish top 4 two times in the last three years and the in the year between that finished 7th having dealth with an injury crisis a semblance of which has crippled your beloved Manyoo and Spurs. But yeah aye I suppose we haven't really 'challenged' yet. -

I love this team man, what a bunch of lads. Of the countless wonderful things that have happened in the last 3 years making a habit of embarrassing Manyoooo is one of the top things on the list for me. Just another thing I never thought I'd see, as regular as this sort of result has become, I think Gemmill mentioned our record against the likes of these and other big games recently, I'm still pinching meself half the time and I hope that feeling never goes away because whats the point if you can't truly enjoy these days. It's the manner of these results as well, we've absolutley blown them away and we play the kind of football people love to see especially when the talk of the town is the boring sideways football lacking character prevalent these days. Even mainstream pundits are (begrdugingly I'm sure) openly admitting it now. Barnes sensational, what a weapon to have. The cup final performance seems to have just lifted him. Tino so impressive again, so happy to see his slight downturn in form was very temporary. And Tonali where do you even start? The goal, the energy and physicality, his movement to link play and cover the full pitch, the understanding of the game coupled with technical brilliance; it feels strange to say in a team with Isak, Bruno but he might really be our best overall player. Mental. There have been a number of outstanding performers this season; Isak, Hall, Burn probably the top for me alongside Tonali but he's been the gamechanger this season in terms of what's different in the squad from last year. Just another month of keeping this up, the final stretch to what already is our best season in 70 years but could get even better. Another day of spending an unholy amount of time on Youtube awaits.- 425 replies

Generic small time football blather thread FOREVER

I can see Chelsea selling Palmer to themselves for $200M tbh. Would sail through PL approvals as well. -
Don't see him being ready next season in any case, maybe the year after that if Howe's magic works again.
-
I think the assumption was Wilson gets replaced with someone younger and DCL only comes in as a 3rd choice if we're in the CL. Shouldnt pay too much heed to that rumor mind, it's almost in the Brett Emerton/Bas Dost category now.
-
Copyright issues I suppose mate, it was basically Onana making a complete tit of himself again.
-
Our forward line plus Tonali should have shoot on sight orders on Sunday.
-
I'd get the logic of DCL as 3rd choice striker if he's okay with that, but why the assumption he'd be fit even coming off the bench? I'd expect him to pull a muscle as soon as he tries a header against Palace away when we're chasing the game in the 85th minute. Might as well expect Wilson to carry the forward line for a season. Bloody hell.
-
Still think 100M is a bit ridiculous to ask for a player that's talented but hasnt really lit up the league or anything like that yet.

I can see the Mbappe/Salah/Trent type contract situation become more normal unless something about PSR is changed. Players will look to run down their contracts if they arent happy and other clubs cant come in due to inflated fees and PSR.
