And the run ends

With a wimper. Cowardly performance just like that 2nd half against utd

It seems that citeh win was the worst thing thats happened to us. Since then we have been pretty poor to fucking shit. I put this up there with that 2nd half at manure.

Dreadful.

I mean as a professional footballer you fucking get hammered 5-1 opening game you would think you would have the motivation to set the record straight. But no.

And this is a newcastle team depleted with injuries and isak going off. In my opinion totally unacceptable.

Sorry if i am being dramatic but i am raging

Nope. Not dramatic. Truthful. And I agree 100%.

Zanilio is just no good at all.  Weve bought in Zanilio and Diaby and currently they are both big downgrades on what we had

Zaniolo should be sent back with a returns note to Galatasaray.

A huge waste of money, especially for the amount that Galatasaray stated when he was signed.

Still been better than Diaby.
Yep and didn't cost £45m

Again, we dont have the option of cancelling Diaby transfer.

And I don't think Zaniolo was far off £40M when all his add-ons were tallied up.

Not arguing with what you think you're saying. We have spent more money on one than the other. They've both been failures. The one on which more money was spent was the bigger waste of said money.

We are not disagreeing.

But like I said, we have already purchased Diaby 100% outright.

Zaniolos loan doesn't have to be made permanent. Especially for how much Galatasaray quote for the fee.

So I would send Zaniolo back to save the wasted transfer fee we would have to pay & worry about Diaby tomorrow...

No I mean, fair. It's just when we look at FFP one has been a much, much bigger failure.
