Any reason the dippers haven’t signed anyone?

Feels like they don't want to invest while new guy sorts out needs and then must save money to extend TAA, Salah and VVD. If they buy nobody and lose all three of those guys for free after season, they're in a remarkably bad position.

That's their entire project or football business model.

Flirt with someone and hope they get them for free/ cheap.. and then sell them for way more.

Did the same thing with Frank Kessie, Aubameyang, Depay, Kind of surprised they haven't done it with Christensen
 
There has to be a deal where Gundo comes to us and Cancelo goes to them. I’d give Gundo a 2 year deal as long as Cancelo’s move is permanent
There at least has to be some positive discussions about him coming back in from the board.
 
The irony is that Bobby Robson nor Keegan won a single trophy with Newcastle as a player or manager and yet are treated as deities up there.
And why shouldn’t they be? Both are legends of English and European football and both are legends throughout Newcastle. It’s not ironic at all because it’s not always what you win that makes you a legend it goes a lot deeper than that.
 
much like the love we have for brian horton.


anyone who watches football knows trophies are a bonus not a necessity
Yes, but we dont have a statue made for Brian Horton. Their love affair with Bobby Robson is weird in my opinion. It would be a bit like us commissioning a statue for Joe Royle.

Both achieved a lot in the game and but not with Newcastle.
 
We’d be sorted for this season had we signed Mac Allister over Nunes last season.

I think Pep and the team must’ve noticed last season we didn’t have enough threat from midfield on transitions and recruited for that in Nunes and Kovacic.

The difference is Kovacic isn’t only a transitional threat - he is excellent on the ball , press-resistant etc.
