Who hopes Palace get relegated and Guehi leaves on a free?
aimaad22 replied to Kid Dynamite's topic in Newcastle Forum
Even a dodgy sale to Saudi might have been nice just to ruffle feathers a bit. Fine Miggy doesnt want to go there the useless tit, but how much did we sell ASM for? 25M? Sheesh. It's like the club has been tucking their tail between the legs and saying 'please oh please dont question us premier league please look how nice we are'. And if a certain Australian is reading 25M is still far too much for him, it's just that Chelsea or ManUtd would have gotten 35-40M. -

Trust an accountant to go by the book -
There is a general feeling around here that Trump might shade the swing states. Who the feck actually knows though.

Well yes, but these are rules that favor the biggest clubs and have been specifically tailored to stop us post takeover. Yet City are the ones taking the league on over that? They're affected too of course but we just seem to be whimpering in a corner. I'd like to see a little bit of agitation tbh. I'm not saying break the rules but we seem to have found absolutely no way to use PIFs muscle to our benefit. At various times some of us have mentioned that we'd expect to see more sponsorships etc by now but that progress also seems to be slow. The stadium feasibility study alone seems to be taking years. These are sensitive issues granted but if you're not willing to shake things up a bit PSR and the Premier league will have us tied down for decades. Maybe I'm just frustrated, but I do think the chaos in the summer has shown all is not as well planned as we thought it was. And maybe they'll turn it around but by the looks of it we cant expect much activity in the January window and that's on the back of a truly pathetic window where the squad has actually regressed. So either we'll end up having to sell one of our stars (which will make the sales of Minteh and Anderson even more terrible) or Eddie will be made the scapegoat. -

It does make you feel somewhat pissed off at just how obssessed with compliance the club as been. You have the likes of Chelsea finding loopholes left, right and center whereas City are the ones taking on the league legally. We've just sat back and been goody two shoes about the whole thing. This expectation many of us had that the weight of PIFs resources will be brought down to deal with PSR hasn't materialized at all, whether it's legal challenges or finding ways around it. For a while I put it down to a slow and steady methodical approach that might bear dividends in the future; I'm not sure anymore with the upheavel this summer. Not quite the well oiled machine we thought it was. -
I do agree that him, Bruno and Joe don't seem to be working well together. The midfield doesn't seem balanced. Then again, it's difficult to make sense of anything with the team these days. So many of the things we expected to have an impact have had next to none. Tonali coming back - average at best, although of course he was out for so long Willock - been shite Isak - Unfit/inconsistent Bruno - been shite Joe- inconsistent, one of our better players in patches with moments of wtf was he doing there sparsed in between Barnes - shite except inside the box Gordon - inconsistent, half arsed at times Defence - all shite, except maybe Hall who's looked good at times Trippier - no idea what to put here Miggy/Murphy/Longstaff - less said the better Osula/Kelly - what have we signed these for exactly???? Difficult to judge individual players when so much seems to be wrong. Is it just many players being out of form at the same time? Or is it something with the system that's causing them to be shite? Who the feck knows.

Great just great. Ten Hag was going to be the prime source of football entertainment now that Nufc are painful to watch again. This week just keeps getting better. -

Maybe Sven Botman was the key to it all -

Bruno is the biggest concern for me. Previously even when he wasn't playing well he would at least get into people's faces, be tenacious and lift those around him. Now it all just seems half arsed blended with Longstaff level passing. And he got the arm band ffs. Did it come with a morphine drip? -

Yes but much of the way we played depended on limited players performing well above their level. Declining players. And we haven't replaced them. -

I really don't know how we've become so poor. And we have been for much of 2024. The lack of investment a big factor of course but dear me the state of the players on the pitch. One's who've done so well past two years, Bruno Isak etc. And ones who were playing above their levels, the Longstaffs Murphy's and Willocks have not only reverted but seem to be unable to string 5 yard passes together. Feel terrible for Howe honestly. He has to pull some magic out of the hat to fix this. I don't see any hope of trophies or European football this season and he may not be backed in January again. -
