Does seem like a lot of money, especially considering the sell-on clause. It's probably the sort of profile player that Newcastle should be signing, though. They need someone to compete with Wilson and Isak ticks a lot of boxes. Investing in potential. Time will tell if that's the right decision.
Spot on. I would not criticise Foster at all, doing his best for some **** teams, it is the referee's problem.
3 points blank blocks one after the other by Soton against United around 20 minutes. Amazing bit of football.
Not watching it but BBC report says ball hit McTominay's arm *twice* in the box but VAR says no pen. [typing this at the same time Billy was it seems] Remember that Penunited were getting help from the refs even in the games they were being stuffed.
Looks like the Southampton player gave up challenging because it was such an obvious penalty. Now they always tell you to play to the whistle but I can understand why he stopped there and just appealed.
2-0 palace. what is it with them? They seem to get these amazing results against the top sides quite regularly! …. But then lose 2-0 to Bournemouth the week after.
