BLACKANDWHITEGEORDIE 0 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Is he having a medical or a fucking autopsy? Frankenstiens monster did not take this long to make. He can not sign until he gets visa clearance, which takes longer than a medical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 3997 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Anderlecht defender Chancel Mbemba agrees personal terms and undergoes medical at United Following an agreement between Newcastle United and Anderlecht for the transfer of Chancel Mbemba, the player has been in Newcastle and has agreed personal terms with the Club and undergone his medical. The documentation in relation to the Club's application for a Governing Body Endorsement (GBE), required in order for Mbemba to obtain a visa, was submitted to the FA on Wednesday morning (22nd July). Unfortunately, the FA are unable to consider the Club's application until Thursday of next week (30th July). The FA advised the Club they were not able to convene a Panel any sooner. The Club will provide an update for supporters at the earliest opportunity following the conclusion of the Panel hearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 5908 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Without meaning to sound racist, when you see the clip of some people given visas I don't see the issue with a bloke who is clearly coming here to work.

Kitman 2188 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 So the Cron says our first choice pairing to start the season is Mbemba and Colo. Colo hasn't kicked a ball in pre season and Mbemba isn't even signed. Our defence leaks goals to third rate opposition and Mike fucking Williamson is incredibly still pulling on a toon shirt. Taylor spends more time injured than playing. What a fucking shambles. When will the club take sorting out the defence seriously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 26830 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 (edited) Taylor and Colo looked like Barasi and Beckenbauer when playing in the 2nd division as they were obviously too good for that division at the time. It worries me this kid hasn't been getting rave reviews in the last year in an easier league and when you factor in his brief performances so far then it doesn't look good does it?

Don't forget that we were the dominant team in the division, much less defending to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were dominant because we had players better than their second div counterparts. Because they were better. A good player should stand out in that league imho. Enrique and Jonas just laughed at the players going down the left side of the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsh to compare Argentinian Internationals in the best team in the league, with a kid who is in a team that's struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammynb 2929 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Wasn't there rumours that Forest wasn't impressed with Lascelles because after signing for Newcastle he had made it and was no longer concerned about them and his performances reflected it? That said he's a kid still and if he's only just as shite as Iron Mike now, there is time for him to improve. Hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that you can get signal on a boat/plane, can you apply from a DFDS Ferry/private plane that enters international waters/airspace? 30 minute (1-2hr) flight to fire off an email.

A good player should stand out in that league imho. Enrique and Jonas just laughed at the players going down the left side of the pitch. Barely anyone gave Enrique trouble back in the premier league also, but that's besides the point. Defenders can be protected and therefore made to look better by being in dominant teams that boss possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
