That and the one getting off the plane, just looks miserable. If the geordies have a bad year and don’t get another season of champions league football he’ll be off. They should’ve gone in for Kalvin.

Perhaps he was happy in the haze of a drunken hour once upon a time? Heaven knows, he doesn't look too happy now.

And the Ian Dowie lookalike award goes to........

This guy...?

The ex Milan player may have looked less than happy. Could be down to something as simple as tiredness.

A lot of the comments on social media however are probably from the jealous supporting red mob thinking how dare a top player not join them. ie snobbery.

Remember the “joke” just after our take over that new City players thought they were joining Utd. Seems like only yesterday.

I’m sure that Newcastle supporters are hoping, J, that it was really nothing.

Is that 'Gripper' Stebson(sp?) from Grange Hill?

It certainly is

Peter Beardsley don't play for the Toon anymore

Peter Beardsley don't play for the Toon anymore

Reminds me of this.

After a disappointing season at Newcastle,

Manager : "There'll be new faces at this club next season"

Beardsley: " Can I have one , please?"

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

I only heard about this on talksport. It was derisory tbh. How can they spend spend, ffp?

Go Newcastle, my 2nd team. And any other club that upends the media-red club monopoly.

I can't wait until Newcastle are outperforming the media favourites.

Looks like Newcastle have got it seriously wrong with Tonali, he clearly doesn’t want to be there. He’ll be back in Europe within two years. Should’ve gone for a Gareth Barry type signing.

I would take the rumours with a pinch of salt as they seem to have come from bitter Milan fans as soon as he signed. His agent has said that Tonali is delighted with the move, the Milan manager has also said the same.

Tonali came over for a day during his holiday and was taken house hunting and shown around the facilities at St James’ and the training ground. The only negative comments have again been from Milan fans.

Tonali has released a new video over the last 24 hours or so with Sam Fender music so he’s picking something up and his wife/girlfriend’s every other word when getting shown around was ‘wow’.

Do a Google image search for Tonali and you’ll struggle to find any photograph of him smiling, it would appear that it’s something he rarely does.

He never looks impressed, some people just don't smile much and he's one of them. This photo is him signing for his boyhood club and sitting next to one of the best footballers to come out of Italy and he looks as if his face is going to crack.
