Newcastle switch attention over to Leeds Italian international winger Wilfried Gnonto after Everton refuse to lower Anthony Gordon's 60mil pricetag...
There is too much noise around the Gordon deal. I think it will happen. 35m plus addons. The sacking of the manager has probably slowed it down.
There's a couple of stories floating around about Malcolm from Zenit. 1. I have no idea who he is 2. His end product in his youtube clubs looks bad enough for Newcastle to be interested.
If he doesn’t turn up for training that a big indication he’s not staying at the club. Can see a dirty Villa bid coming in last minute.
I want Gordon to sign. 100%. He’s a good player. He’s perfect for Howes style. Everton fans will **** the bed.
Probably this. The thing with Ashby is will he be instant cover, training with the first team & competing with Manq for a spot on tbe bench? Or will he be another "one for the future" who gets loaned out to a lower league?
Apparently Bielsa has assessed the squad and has more or less said they won’t be able to play his style.
He said that before the most recent talks between him and the club. He was in London yesterday, meeting Moshiri by all accounts. He will relegate them, I think he's all hot air honestly. Leeds were 100% going down under him last season, they were tripe
Agree, he would be a bad choice for them, especially right now. The only ones who really fit his style are Gordon, Onana, Iwobi and Gray. Their defenders don't have the leg/pace for a back and forth basketball style game where they are constantly up and down the pitch. They'd be absolutely fooked by half time.
They also don't have a striker, Gordon might be coming to us. That one is yet to be seen. The only thing they have going for them is their CBs are quite good. Under Bielsa that will go to ****. I seriously don't rate him, had years to sort out that Leeds defence and never bothered, leaving Lazio after 2 days, walking into Lille and telling the entire squad he'd sack them day one. I think Dyche is their best bet. All that being said, I hope they go for Bielsa
