[Special Juan 28,146]

Howe has been sold down the river dealing with all this shite and apparently the Newcastle officials have been to visit Isak at is house today to talk about him staying, so basically they are sucking up to him. Let the fucker rot and not even in the reserves, sit him out and let him rot

You’ve been bang on about Konate for ages, @Vesper

He's Disasi like in terms of composure and concentration.

[Vesper 30,224]

ffs

Rio wins it

16yo who they stole from us

[Pizy 18,952]

Jammy, lucky motherfuckers

[Vesper 30,224]

if we had Rio now we certainly would not need to buy Garnacho or Gittens

[Fulham Broadway 17,333]

Terrible marking for their 3rd

He’s more talented than both that’s for sure.

[Vesper 30,224]

Good joke, Winstanley would still buy them and shove him on the side like its happening with George.

Gakpo is Slot’s preference at LW and they are looking to bring in another LW per Paul Joyce.

Don’t agree that he has a better chance.  

Second game into the season.

its a good result for us cuz newcastle are fighting for top4

Rio broke Wayne Rooney's EPL record by one day

he is now the youngest player ever to score a match winner

[Pizy 18,952]

It would’ve been annoying yet at least tolerable if young Rio had decided to leave Chelsea and killed it in Italy or Germany or something. In that scenario we probably could’ve potentially bought him back in a few years.

But to see him at a direct rival where he could blossom into a superstar for 15 years is gutting. Things are kind of breaking just right for him too since as @MoroccanBlue says, they have only Gakpo on the left and haven’t been able to sign the new LW that they had wanted. Had they done so he may have never gotten these opportunities and been sent on loan.

Stuff like this is always going to happen though sadly. When you have such a crazy good academy there will always be future stars who get away. For every Reece James, Colwill, or Chalobah there’s a Musiala, Olise, or Rio who gets away.

Its kinda fucking annoying that we have produced some great defensive players that have made it as first team regulars but haven’t had a single attacking prospect become a superstar.

4th youngest to score an EPL goal of any sort

he should have been off with a 2nd yellow

but Pool is a golden child club

[Thor 2,720]

Rio is talented but you can’t get every young golden boy. 
 

I honestly don’t think he’s close to the talent Estevao, Dowman and a few others are. 
 

Also as I stated, Pool look very shaky and I don’t think they will go on some crazy unchallenged run.

So sick of them! Two late wins with one coming in 90+10. Plus red card and next is Arsenal who will be with injured Saka and Odegaard. So fucking lucky! These wins give them confidence and momentum which they got in similar fashion last season as well.
