When was it that Newcastle fans weren't deluded?

He's been there since he was a young lad (5 it maybe 7?, checked, it's 5) so I guess it will feel like that to them. I understand and empathise given what one of ours did.

I suspect Marseille couldn't offer what we and various other Premier League or La Liga teams did. Plus, let's face it, he's now in the biggest and best league in the world.

Good players leaving is always a pisser but iIt's not quite the same though in that he hadn't signed a new contract and so his departure shouldn't really be a shock to them. Greasy pissed off a year after signing a new one with us and giving it the whole "my club, my city" bollocks.
You'd have preferred he left for free so long as he hadn't hurt your feeling by saying 'my club'?

I'm glad he's gone, the horrible, pissed up chav. I wouldn't have him back on a free.

Me either. Anyway, let's not sully this thread.

I'm loving the business we're doing. Gerrard is obviously doing well along with Lange and Purslow.

I do wonder if Lange had maybe found that some feedback on deals he'd previously been pursuing would've stood a better chance of happening if our manager/head coach was higher profile, and this fed into the decision to sack Smith and bring in Gerrard.

I don’t know about that. I’m sure Gerrard’s profile has helped though. Certainly we’re not getting Coutinho. But I don’t know that Kamara is higher profile than Leon Bailey for example. Or Danny Ings. Having Smith didn’t impede those deals for example.

Watched some footage of him and he looks exactly the kind of player we need.  Ideally, I think we could have done with a more experienced leader type in there, as I feel we are missing that in the team in general, but I'm looking forward to seeing him next season.

Philippe Auclair described it as a “stunning coup for Villa”. Talked about him being one of the future stars of French football.

When citeh decide to offload grealish guess who will be first in there waving their saudi cheque book.

I could definitely see that happening.

Just to point out the obvious to the Geordies, but why do they think Bruno Guimaraes decided to leave Lyon (who were playing European football at the time) to join a relegation threatened Newcastle?

No, but at 22 I wouldn’t expect him to start bossing people around.

Unlikely given he's already married.

Two kids too, Leeroy and Kingsley so despite his youth he's clearly a fan of 'Fame' and 'Lucky Jim'.

I haven’t read the entire thread.
This is what he put on Twitter

Quand le mensonge prend l'ascenseur, la vérité prend l'escalier. Même si elle met plus de temps, la vérité finit toujours par arriver !

Short of a seagull but that’s always good!

Resisting the obvious Grace Bros / Marseille parallel, I like him!

I thought you'd actually translated it there Lou, and was wondering what on earth he was on about! :)

Probably for the best, I got in trouble for a Grace Bros reference a few months back. ;)

I'd love a centre mid of Kamara and Bissouma. If we swapped Luiz + £££ for Abraham we'd be in for a serious season.
