Newcastle United Thread - 2021/22

Buyout clause kicks in in the summer not January the yank owners want the money because that’s what they are in it for

That's probably why Toon are paying £5m more than the buyout clause.

 

[Pell]

That's Burnley relegated. A lot is going to depend on Cornet and he's away at AFCON.

 

[Bluemoon115]

I'd say exactly what they need.

Look at how crap all the bottom few teams are. Chances are if any team pulls 4 wins out of their arse, it probably saves them.

Not a signing for the future, just the next 6 months. But that's all that matters right now.

 

[Corky]

Poor signing for the money and way Newcastle play, the only logic in knee capping a rival.

Come on Watford.

Are they oil bastards too?

Not surprised Lille told them to piss off with their £30m bid for Botman.

 

[bluealf]

Wrong manager
Dubious signings.

Are they preparing for relegation?

They better be

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Smart move. Deplete your relegation rival and strengthen your own side. Money no object so worth the punt.

If they wait for the end of his contract, they’ll be able to sign him on a Botman.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Newcastle fans must be delighted with the signings so far….

 

[Mr Kobayashi]

Could be the perfect transfer for both Newcastle and Burnley.. If it results in both going down. :)

 

[bluealf]

40 years old and still playing!

Does he have mechanical body parts now?

 

[117 M34]

The signing of Chris Wood in itself won't keep Newcastle up but rather Burnley losing some goals might do it.

He has only scored 3 goals in 17 games.

 

[MCFC1993]

Does he have mechanical body parts now?

Somethings happened, last 4 seasons (so 36-40 years old) he's scored 66 goals in 130 games.

Don't know whether I'm more impressed with his goal ratio or the amount of games played!

Yeah Yank is derogatory and I should be better than that and said American owners.

It’s just that these Americans are the ones who are ruining clubs and the premier league it pisses me of.

You could made your point better than that though.

I think it is a bit of a cliche that he was always injured.

Roque Santa Cruz - Injury history

This is the injury history of Roque Santa Cruz from Club Libertad Asunción. On this page injuries as well as suspensions.

There aren't that many big spells out.

But he was never going to get a consistent run in the team once we signed better players like Tevez and Adebayor.

Before his spell in his home country he was only ever really prolific at blackburn, his best strength was always his hold-up play and ability to bring others into the game.

Which made him a favourite for his national side at the expense of Oscar Cardozo, a more prolific scorer at club level.

Seems to get more chances to play the poacher part of his game than target man nowadays.

this.

prob score a decent amount of goals to keep them up and that covers the cost anyway

 

[Grealish’s Shinpads]

Would be funny if they signed Tarkowski as well but still managed to get themselves relegated along with Burnley and Norwich

 

[Stoned Rose]

I hope this sees an end to Burnley in the Premier League.

What a fucking pointless football club.

And the ginger **** can get a new job on the doors of Angels or somewhere up there.
