Or you could just hope he turns out to be a great signing and sees out his contract?

As long as he performs and does not have any attitude problems
My only concern is people mentioning his form in the euros. I can't even recall his performances. But then it was probably the worst football tournament i have seen since the 94 world cup

I'm not sure either, but they couldn't have been worse than Xhaka's who I do remember as being distinctly average...
But you haven't answered my question
What's funny about calling me Devon?
Unless I'm missing something
But I'm not!
That was my name on Footymad when I lived in Devon.
This isn't Footymad and I don't live there anymore
So what's the point?
I suppose I should have put plenty of thought into it and come up with something really profound or witty
Like Superstaryid

Who said it was funny Devon ?
That's what I wondered as your posts generally aren't
Just the usual bleating and whining but no change there eh, little girl
Reading that thinking "they've not quoted anything I wrote, I mustn't be very good at these divisive comments". Then, as the last comment they posted, they got to the bit where I tore into that newcastle fan...
"Fact is, the Newcastle fans are all acting like an ugly c*** who just got cheated on. Going around spreading insults because you are in denial about the situation. You got relegated because you are a crap team"
I see one of them has commented, quoting this, and said "Hes the one in denial. his club has just bought one of the players from that 'crap' team."
I don't think they realise the difference between a player and a team. That's why they have no identity, imo. The fan's don't really know what the club is about, so it's been lost. You can't tip up in mass thousands each week and expect it to mean something, unless you have a bit of a team identity - we have a style of play, a history of a certain type of player (Hoddle, Gazza, Ginola, Bale etc.).
We've lost key players and kept that identity, whereas Newcastle have a personality crisis every season - can anyone even name of the characteristics of playing them?
Novelty statement from the comments: "I reckon Yedlin will be worth more in 2 years time than Sissoko will be."
:chadliwtf:
Newcastle should do something similar to the basque teams imo - they all love local lads playing for them more than anything else and it would give them identity......and it's not like they could really do a lot worse on the pitch anyway, they've not won a trophy since 1955.

Maybe he thinks you're that guy from Knight Rider...
I think we are wasting too much energy talking about whether Sissoko is a good or bad signing and not enough time discussing what Nkoudou brings to the team..
Whether we agree or disagree let's give Sissoko a chance to show us what he can offer and the same for our other signings in this window..

Rarely does a deal get so many parties happy. Spurs fans happy with having a new player, Everton fans happy with bullet dodged, Newcastle fans happy staring at the cash...
... Andy Carroll
He's a twat
Standing joke on Footymad and Spurs Vital but has ended up on here where we're more tolerant
'According the sun, ' that's all you really need to know.
You could say, who did Paul Mitchell have lined up to get in the last hours of the window then?
They could also say Mitchell didn't do that great a job getting players in this window did he.
One player for the squad and a kid for the academy.
Some say £30m is too much to pay for an option
Then some complain we haven't got a team of £25- £30+m well paid players on the bench.
Is Sissoko better than Mason?
Is he 1x better than Mason?
If you think he is then he's a £26m player.
Is Sissoko better than Townsend?
Sissoko also has 45 full international caps
A player who cost £5m last season and had one decent season in a 'team' was sold for £30m. A player who has 9 international caps and only got his first last season.
A player who left a club a few years back for nothing as nobody bothered to question Ferguson's judgement that he wasn't worth paying that much has just been bought for £100m and is probably getting 3 times as much as they'd be paying him now if they kept him.
Football has gone fucking mad.
I don't think many players are worth £30m, it's mad.
Yet it's the PL and it's an inflated market because it's awash with money.
Agents and clubs can squeeze a lot as they know it.
Or £22m Marcus Alonso, who Chelsea just signed.
Not capped by Spain, not even U21s.
2008–2010 Real Madrid B 39 (3)
2010 Real Madrid 1 (0)
2010–2013 Bolton Wanderers 35 (5)
2013–2016 Fiorentina 58 (4)
2014 → Sunderland (loan) 16 (0)
2016– Chelsea
£22m. For an older Yedlin, basically, minus the caps
