Hu-gone.

Hugo soft-cock. Downie says attention is being turned elsewhere AND that we’re pushing for Lingard. 👀

[Dr Gloom 21757]

i'm surprised we weren't interested in ramsey or dele ali

[Dr Gloom 21757]

i'm surprised ramsey couldn't get a better club than rangers tbh

[acrossthepond 866]

Wise moves to pass up Ramsey and Alli imo, we've got Bruno and both will be on ludicrous wages. Any word on Zapata?

not for a few days, i don't think. only forward options mentioned today really have been ekitike (off) and lingard (tbc)

[thebrokendoll 9033]

bit pissed off with the etitike deal going tits up. appreciate the kid was probably being bought as one for the future, but would've been another option up front.

remain underwhelmed with wood and can't help but be concerned with the lack of goals in the team.

[acrossthepond 866]

I agree, I don't think the job's finished until we've brought in another forward.

lingard is the big one now ekitike is off  - sign him on top of the rest and the window has been a triumph

[Phoenix711 26]

Let's be honest, no real Newcastle fan will care if we miss out on Ekitike - the chances of him becoming a worldie are low and if he does we can always revisit the situation.

 

We want Lingard in, if they lower the loan amount to £10m total (upfront + survival fee), we should just bite the bullet.

 

Some people have said he'd choose West Ham over us - for a permanent I'd agree - for a 6 month loan, I'm pretty confident he chooses us for one reason, Kieran Trippier (they're good mates). 

[Polarboy 2311]

He could prefer West Ham all he wants, but the chances that Manure would let him go to a direct rival for top four seems slim. 

[Gemmill 44098]

Lingard deal is everything now. West Ham still sniffing around too, the fucking bamps.

bizarre.

so the one's who would've liked to see the kid signed are just pretendy supporters?

is it generous to call west ham a direct rival? sign of how far man u have fallen, i suppose

What a bizarre thing to say

my west ham mate reckons they will end up signing no one

[Anorthernsoul 1221]

Lingard wants the move to Newcastle over West Ham, we should get him over the line.

Aren't you a real fan Tom? Are you a hologram or something?

They are for this season at least on the basis of the table and general form. The 'ammers getting Lingard could conceivably have a big influence on their final position, if he were to reproduce the same form as he did for them last time. 

[Gemmill 44098]

Fuck. 

 

 

[Ayatollah Hermione 13760]

 Oh, mate 

[Gemmill 44098]

Wait it's fake. What a cunt.

 

[Gemmill 44098]

Finally went one further than wykiki.

 

I thought I was bulletproof.

 

I'm Icarus. 

[Polarboy 2311]

Well there goes my theory 😂 I honestly think that's a bizarre move from Manure. He could easily be the difference between them or West Ham getting the final Champions League spot. Oh well, if we have other targets we could have a very interesting end to the window.
