Howay 12496 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Not sure if it’s been mentioned but we’ve been linked to Stefano Sturaro: https://www.themag.co.uk/2018/06/newcastle-united-offer-12m-for-stefano-sturaro-report/ I don’t think it’s been from anywhere credible mind. Only worth posting as there’s been next to nowt other than Ritchie, Gayle, Mbemba all leaving rumours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1244 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Ki having a medical ahead of a free transfer from Swansea. I always thought he was a pretty decent player but shopping in the bargain basement again doesn't bode well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 13863 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I've always thought he was a decent player actually. Seems to use the ball well, has a bit of presence and height. Not sure I'd want him starting every week but he's a dependable option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 13863 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 These kind of squad filling options are exactly what we've missed for years tbf. Gives competition to Diame with Merino and his bad back leaving, knows the league, seems sensible enough to me. You'd like to think it means Colback is fucking off the wage bill as well.

Howay 12496 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 He was Sunderlands best player a few years back, not that that says much. He seems a bit of a sideways passer type CM from what I’ve seen, as others have said if he’s replacing Merino as cover that’s fine but he doesn’t improve the team iyam.

247 597 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Think he'll be a solid signing for us, an upgrade on Hayden and back up for super Diame when he decides he doesnt feel like being the second coming of Makelele anymore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerosum 234 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 (edited) got to be flogging colback now .. even just a mill and him off the wage bill would be good Edited June 29, 2018 by zerosum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21915 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Underwhelmed but it’s what we’ve come to expect. Hopefully he exceeds expectations and is s solid signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooneyToony 41 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Colback To be fair Ki is a tidy player, likes to move the ball around and keep possession. Not better than Diame, no way! Anyway, we should be moving hard for a striker as soon as possible instead of midfielders or defenders, or we'll end up with another Joselu-type signing late in the window.

I may be being harsh on Hayden but I’ve written him off at this level tbh. Also, has the kit Ki is pictured in been actually unveiled yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21915 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Quite like that new kit. Shame about the holocaust of a sponsor all over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
