Strike

Seems like a CB is part of the plan. We currently have 10 - Fofana Tosin Chalobah Disasi Colwill Badiashile Sarr Josh Veiga Anselmino

Noises out of Newcastle is this might be ascension planning. They may go into this season with both and sell Isak next year

Look at the PSG and Enrique reaction - like they lost a major final. Were never in it tactically today

Lol Trump. Glad that the team ignored him

Brilliant win. Hopefully signals our arrival back among the elite clubs.

Maresca Out?

Doubt we would be the club that is serious about signing Isak. Liverpool and Arsenal will be interested

This is a coup for Newcastle. They’re planning for life after Isak

Will be nothing in the end. But L'Equipe reporting interest in Donnarumma

Nico - without the pressure of being the main forward - is an asset. Except for finishing being a letdown in some phases last season, he was doing all the other work needed of a striker.

We have Estevao and Quenda is coming. We don't need another teenage project. Would be great if we can get in the conversation for a Rodrygo or Rogers (Jackson goes the other way) for the attack.

Too good to be true

Hasn't he been tossed out because of the transfer interest in him? He was ahead of Nkunku and even Sancho, Neto last season. And there's interest in him because he's been good (not spectacular) and has given glimpses that he can be of great use in a game - constantly takes on defenders, always looking to progress the ball. I can see BlueCo taking a 50m + deal but I don't see how replacing Madueke (who is 23, used to the Premier League and has consistently got better in the last two seasons) with a teenager like Estevao is making the squad better? If we are looking to replace Madueke, a good player will cost more than 50m.

If Caicedo has a problem I would rest him in the final No point risking him before the season has begun

Can only beat what’s in front of us. Maresca has tinkered and managed the oppressive heat fairly well all tournament.

He’s back out running. PHEW

And then kicks the ball to their keeper lol

Expecting Santos for Enzo

Only the second goal will convince me we might win

Where was he supposed to keep his hand ? edit - on a stream. Just saw it’s overturned

Loan went exceedingly well but it’s a small profit in the end

We have to sell from the A list according to reports. Some of the dead wood won’t make a dent

Seems pointless - the effort to move out Madueke (after putting in 2.5 years into growing him + when he's approaching his prime years) and bringing in Garnacho/Nwaneri/Fofana and re-starting the process. We are only weakening the first team with this change. The common sense move would be to keep him unless Arsenal stump up 55-60m

There is no replacement in line. Makes less sense to sell for lower price when almost all reported replacements (Garnacho, Fofana, Rogers) are looking more expensive

Why should the club accept a low-ball offer for a player who's good and is attracting interest?
