Wasted a lot more money on Matt Targett than Dan Ashworth!

There will be executives at our club who will now be a little less inclined to support him if a managerial change gets mooted.

Even if the youth team was good the fans would have come for Newcastle United. we had enough in the squad to play 7 seniors in each match.

Where is Jeff Hendrick when you need him?

I think we should just ban Froggy for the duration of Ashworth’s gardening leave.

£4.5m to Rangers?

He’s basically Craig Bellamy, but nice.

This season I think the CL and cup draws were a real problem as they really sapped the squad in the Autumn months. this will keep happening for future CLs unless we build up our coefficient. Assuming we are in ECL then this is a chance to build it a bit.

£35m player

Murphy is twice the player ASM ever was

True. if we do have to sell to further upgrade our squad we do now have assets. Murphy - £30m Almiron - £20m Willock - £50m Wilson - £15m Targett - £10m Trippier - £10m £130m of fees we can obtain fairly straightforwardly. Selling Pope is also an option depending on GK plans. Then we probably get Hall, Tosin and Kelly quickly. They replace Targett and fill some other gaps in our current squad. one or two strikers needed to be second fiddle to Isak. Ideally one of these can play RW RW would be the marquee signing. Minteh can have a back up role depending on how we replace Wilson. Otherwise we can either loan or sell him too. Willock is not directly replaced as we have a lot of CMs. We would need to make a call between Krafth and a new signing for Right Back to cover Tino.

When are people going to wake up to the fact that much like Joelinton is now an £80m player, Murphy is a £30m player. Frustratingly he is probably the FFP solution.

No they showed him the HTT golf course dossier

Great time to score!

I think he mistook you for someone else
