[Seat Stealer]

[Brovion]

Thank the lawd that at least a couple of chaps got my joke.

Oh the rest of us got it ..... we just didn't think it was worth a 'like'!

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Newcastle don’t have the same PSR limits as last summer = rinse them TB.
I think we’ll want north of £60m
I don’t want him to leave but it’s looking like his situation is untenable, if we had to lose one of him or Mitoma I know who I’d rather stayed.

Newcastle with Pedro filling the space between Guimares/Tonali and Isak could be rather special.....

 

[macbeth]

And I've read they'd let Callum Wilson leave. Would be interested

Our medical team are busy enough as it is, no thanks.

 

[The Optimist]

Do we care about his international career ? take 60m from anyone mug enough to pay it !

He might and therefore not agree to a move to Saudi Arabia.

 

[chickens]

He might and therefore not agree to a move to Saudi Arabia.

But therein lies the problem with acting the wazzock and burning your bridges where you are. If you render yourself entirely unpopular where you are, you risk having to take the move being offered, even if it’s not the move you wanted.

I don’t know 100% that this is what’s occurring here, but it appears to me to be an advert for keeping a cool head and treating your existing teammates with a bit of respect.

They play three out and out CM'ers. Joelintin converted to that.

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

because they haven't got anyone like Pedro.

When they were good they were good, but they had many games where they couldn't break down the oppo.

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

I think we're resigned to the fact that he'll probably go, so from a squad building perspective we're planning without him.

However, that's reliant on someone meeting the valuation. I reckon we're quite happy if he stays.

If this drags on, it could be that Pedro has to eat a bit of humble pie to get himself in the first team reckoning through pre season.

My take on Newcastle is that they can afford him, but the fee would eat up a huge chunk of their allowable transfer budget, so they are seeing what transpires.

I'd be surprised if Joao Pedro took a Saudi move at this stage. (I mean actual Saudi, not North East England Saudi)

Howe, like many coaches eg Dyche, likes a combative three who'll tackle and closedown for 90+ minutes.

Here you go:

Watford in line for big sell-on boost if Pedro leaves Brighton

Watford could be in line for a windfall worth more than previously thought if Newcastle United target Joao Pedro leaves Brighton this summer.

That article mentioned 20% of any profit
Does that mean 20% of the projected 30M profit if JP sold for 60M per say
Or 20% of the 60M ?

sure Ive seen it confirmed befoe that sell ons are the percentage of the profit , so 20% of the 30m

I’m guessing Pedro would be the back up for Isak, who gets injuries or to rest Isak with a Euro campaign too.

Did we kinda agree that Pedro didn't like or thrive as a winger? So not taking Gordon's lefty wing slot.

They will have Champions League Money coming during the accounting period so will no doubt be OK on a PSR footing given transfer fee spread over a max of five years etc. So at £60m that will be £12m a season.

To be fair Gordon has recently lost his status as Newcastle's first choice LW - after his sending off against us in March he started only three games for the club, including one in which he was hooked at HT.

Feels like a good fit for Newcastle. Can see 50,000 Geordies reacting very well to a lot of arm waving when things aren't going quite so well.

Any noise from the home support would represent an improvement on the current atmosphere at SJP based on our last few visits

And rubbish for England last week. But who wasn't

He gets fans begrudgingly celebrating winning a throw in, like no one else in the business.

The most overhyped 'atmosphere' after Anfield.
