    I see Minteh got 90 minutes yesterday and neither scored nor assisted but his replacement came on and within 5 mins set up the winner. I point it out as if that had been the opposite way around the bedwetting would be insane around now.

    He looked really decent at times, but also fluffed a couple of really good chances to set others up. Get the feeling he will blow hot and cold, which will mean his highlights reels make him look like 1980's Brazil, whereas he can also drift out of games. Exciting and frustrating in equal measure.

    Trippier won't be involved given the newspaper story.

    I wouldn't worry too much about her, anyway she's retired.

    He got an assist last week.

    People will now spend far too much time trying to convince themselves he's useless but he isn't and will get better.

    The club had to sell him, but we'll never now if there was another option in terms of a sale.

    He certainly isn't useless, but he will need coaching to bring out his raw talent to a level that can make him a great player on a consistent basis.

    Meanwhile Newcastle are still piss farting around with players from the Ashley regime.

    I thought he was no different to Murphy and what he can do
    That's a bit harsh considering I have only have seen him in the 1 game

    And I doubt we could get 35M for Murphy

    What has happened to the 'wonderkid' that was Garang Kuol? After 2 poor loan spells he seems to have just disappeared.

    Currently injured but I heard that the next loan deal is his last chance at the club

    If he ever looks even remotely capable he'll be sold, so that the manager can keep hold of key players in Longstaff and Murphy.

    Let's see if Shola can work some magic then. Who else does he even need to sort loans out for? What a cracking job he has. Smile to camera, sign t-shirts and once every 3 months see how the one lad out on loan is getting in.

    Think Alex Murphy is being sent out on loan as will Joe White. Think Jamie Miley will get a loan deal though he needs to be at a championship club now if he’s got a chance of making it at the club

    Indeed, looks like click bait. Nothing online about Trippier that I can see.
