Other Games 23/34/25

[Kenneth]

There is no answer. The cunts are making it up as they go along

[Buzzo]

Yeah they are pivoting and changing on criteria on a near game by game basis.

[RichC]

Oh to have some consistency.

No doubt we’ll have Dermott Gallagher rolled out to explain why that wasn’t a red blissfully unaware he’s contradicting himself for the umpteenth time this season.

[red g]

I like Gordon a bit more after that. Still a diving rat face **** though.

Isak is quality. I know this will never happen but if Newcastle did have to sell players for FFP purpose, I’d have Isak at Anfield every day of the week. Class act.

They do have to sell to buy due to ffp.... Bruno G is rumored to being sold for funds

[red g]

They only have to sell, if they are buying big apparently.

As for Isak, United should have been all over him always thought he would do well. Class player and under rated for sure.

What would we have to pay for him now though?

[Slinky Skills]

He's a top player.

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has said selling players "is part of every club's DNA now" to ensure they stay within the limits of Financial Fair Play regulations.

On Thursday, the Magpies reported a loss in excess of £73m for the 2022-23 season, leading to speculation that players could be sold to fund future investment.

Speaking about that possibility upon the release of those figures, chief executive Darren Eales said: "Any decision we make will always be against the backdrop of the medium to long-term benefit for the club. It's difficult to say specifically on certain players, but I can say that if we're going to get to where we want to get to, at times it is necessary to trade your players."

At his news conference on Friday, Howe said: "We do discuss things on a regular basis so there's no surprise to me. We've been working under Financial Fair Play restrictions for a long time.

"Selling players is part of every football club's DNA now. It has to be with Financial Fair Play rules because we have to generate more income. To sign players, we may have to sell players. It doesn't necessarily mean 'star' players, whatever is meant by that term, but certainly selling players will be something this club will do now for the foreseeable future."

Meanwhile, Howe has rejected reports that Newcastle had made an enquiry for Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke.

He added: "It's a frustrating story for me because I love Dominic Solanke, I signed him [for Bournemouth] and rate him very highly, but we have not made an enquiry for him and we don't have the ability to sign a player of that level.

"We're not shutting the door on everything, certainly as I sit here now we're not going to bring anybody in [in January], but that may change as the window unfolds."

Doku is dog ****

[Kenneth]

I’m not sure that Newcastle have completed a pass in city’s half in the last half an hour.

[Kenneth]

After 45 mins of defence against attack, City finally take the lead.

[BobTheCharmer]

City without haaland are relentless. They just don't let up.

[Irishnev]

City without haaland are relentless. They just don't let up.

They’re arguably better without him as they have 11 players all contributing, KDB back gives them the edge now ffs
