The key point that underpins all of your posts is that you're an idiotic, rambling, incoherent troll.

So yes, your point was made quite some time ago.

Lol. Brilliant.
 
Looking forward to getting this tournament over with. Getting back to England will certainly help push through deal I think.

Manquillo and Moreno seem just a matter of time.

Still need that striker though. Then I think our business will be done.

In today's game. can you think of any others who have say at least 10 years of top flight experience and have played for the same club? One club players seem to be a thing of the past. 20 years ago, it was very common just to play for the same team for your entire career. Now it seems a rarity.

I cant think of many although im not trying hard. Gerrard, Totti... Terry maybe??

Giggs (just retired), Zanetti (just retired), Xavi (thus far), half the Bilbao team ...

Surely could have gone to a lot of other clubs and been a number one. Now he has to duke it out with Casillas.

Diego Lopez is ahead of Casillas.

I'd suggest this might mean that Casillas is on the way out.
 
Goal.com reckon that Mussachio is on the way to Spurs, with some quotes from Villareal's manager.

All the tabloids have picked up on it now too.

Makes sense. One of Lopez and Casillas will leave, I would have thought Casillas but Lopez leaving could also make sense.

Casillas is back to being number 1.

Based on what?

Based on him playing as number 1. During the United game the commentators even made note that he had won back the spot.

Sounds like the Madrid media kind of forced Lopez out and Casillas back. Lopez is now able to leave on a free transfer.

ESPN commentators? So he played in a pre season game. Has it come from Madrid?

It would be incredibly stupid of them to lose Lopez just so they can stroke the ego of Casillas. Lopez has gone past him as a keeper.

Oh well. Who cares that RM are stupid.

Kudos for the mention bok but Taylor is one most Toon fans would rather see moved on! :D

Credit to him though, he has had plenty of chances to move on and has always stated he wants to stay at Newcastle for his whole career.

Others include Shola Ameobi (who just left at the end of last season on a free) after 14 seasons. Arguably our best ever GK - Shay Given 12 odd seasons and his understudy for most of that time, Steve Harper who was on the books for a massive 20 years! Though Ameobi and Harper were never world beaters, they were Toon fans and stayed loyal to the club for many years. Given, at his peak, was close to one of the very best keepers in the EPL too and probably could have played for a more successful team if he wanted during that time.

Shearer also gave us 10 wonderful years and rejected the chance of plenty of silverware by telling Ferguson to stick it up is clacker as well :p
 
Looks like the dream of Aubameyang won't be realised this window - he has no intentions of wanting to leave Dortmund (which is fair enough) and maybe thinks he can get more game time with Lewandowski out of the picture.

Jatz interestingly, we were linked to Wickham over the weekend. Poyet has said he either signs a new deal this window or they will sell him (as he has 1 year left on his deal). Reportedly available for $6m ($2m less than what the scum paid for him). Not a bad option for $6m and the premium on English talent!

Facundo Ferreyra has officially joined on loan (our 7th addition this window!) and got an assist on debut against Schalke!

Finally, Mirror reporting we are set to raid the Championship for young CB Jamaal Lascelles from Forest for $3m and young GK Karl Darlow (who might be loaned straight back to Forest). Not sure how much truth is in either of those (haven't previously been linked to either) and we already have an abundance of young keepers at the club...
