The new number 9…

I've convinced myself that:
1. Newcastle are willing to sell;
2. Isak wants to come;
3. We are will pay a transfer record £150m + fee; and
4. This man's groin is completely fucked and it's a matter of when we find out.
They could be doing a Torres on us that we did to Chelsea.
 
League and CL next year and bin off the domestic cups early doors please.

Just reminding you that the players who play in the early rounds of the domestic cups are not the players who play regularly in the league or CL and giving them game time to get them match fit actually helps our cause of winning the other two major trophies.

So no “binning off” - play the kids/reserves, try to win, but if we lose… that’s ok.

It takes away the focus of all the senior staff too. Play the u21’s then maybe but we know that’s not going to be the case.

In what way does it “take away” focus?

Playing the U21’s along with first team squad players who aren’t playing much is precisely what we DID do last year.

Otherwise, Marmadashvilli, Gomez, Endo, Badger, Nyoni, Rio, McConnell, Doak, etc may as well leave after pre-season, because the only way they get game time is if someone gets injured.

I think you completely underestimate how useful these games can be to the squad.
 
Why have this same argument every year? Just accept that Dreamie is always right in his world, meanwhile those of us on the real world side of the wardrobe can have our own views ... never the twain should meet

I am ever hopeful that Dreamie somehow sees the world through different eyes at some point.
