Skyline Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 What could go wrong?! Diego Carlos, considered one of the top talents in the European Leagues at the moment. Currently playing for a Sevilla side who are 2nd in La Liga. Requesting to be allowed to leave to join.... Newcastle! Who are offering to triple his current wages. The most annoying thing about this, although they don't need it, if Newcastle get relegated they will receive parachute payments to help cover these stupid wages. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point and view, especially if we ended up in the same league. I've took a back seat from caring as much and just find it all extremely fascinating. How the super rich have all become attracted to England and it's Premier League. Newcastle are going to become a force and I'm intrigued by every signing and their road to the top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 On 18/01/2022 at 13:08, TheEnchanter said: Potter on being linked with other clubs. The mistake is often to think you are better than you are and can succeed in any environment," he added. "That is not the case. "I am ambitious. I want to succeed. But I am no magician. I need help. To be successful as a coach, you need good people around you - staff, board, CEO, the strategy of the club, the structures around it, the players. I have got senior players here who are so helpful and supportive. "We have a fantastic chairman who provides the clarity, vision and support for us all and allows us to get on with our work. "Everything around the club gives you a chance as a coach This is so relevent to us as a club. Any manager that manages Swfc has almost none of that. Or none of that in a quality capacity. That is why everyone struggles here. We have no system, plan, structure. 100%. That's why they're where they are and we're where we are, despite being pretty much on a par with each other not that long ago. We can hound out as many managers at we like, but until the club is set up for success, each and every one will continue to come up short while we flail around aimlessly. Potter is smart enough to know that he needs the right club, and there's no way a manager like him would chance his hand on Wednesday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohgoditsjames Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Leicester 2-1 up at the 94th minute only to be 2-3 down at the 98th minute. They must have taken a few lessons from us 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorrallOwl17 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 That game was bonkers last night, a 95th minute equaliser is normal enough, that happens week in week out around the country teams equalising in stoppage time. But to surrender the ball from the kick off within a few passes, and be that wide open in centre midfield and centre back literally after the kick that meant 2 passes put Bergwijn 1 on 1 was madness, surely with having the kick off, a pass to the defender or GK then a punt up the park would have been full time, but a misplaced past in the middle of the pitch from kick off and so wide open was madness. Good game though, like a basket ball game for 97 mins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopparberg Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Cristiano Ronaldo's representatives have told Manchester United that the 36-year-old Portugal forward will look to leave Old Trafford in the summer if the club fail to qualify for next season's Champions League. (Sun) ________ An unnamed Premier League team have matched Newcastle United's offer for 28-year-old Sevilla defender Diego Carlos, with the Magpies believed to have tabled a £30m bid for the Brazil centre-back.

Only one of their last 13 managers has gone beyond 50 games, and I'm not even counting caretakers in that. It's unbelievable the club is relatively successful.

beswetherick Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 They are a mental club, always seem to have about 50 players in the squad as well as sacking the manager every few weeks. No doubt they’ll go straight back up if they get relegated though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls maniac Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Ranieri is a busted flush now. Amazed he keeps getting premier league gigs. Feels like the owners are hesitating to pull the trigger because of his pedigree. Although that might change after this result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was about to point out that he's only been in charge for 14 games, but this is Watford, so he's probably got a stand named after him by now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birstall Owl Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Read this on the Watford forum earlier, reminds me of us being 1-3 @ Derby in the 90th minute and drawing This is worse than Yeovil 3-0 and Coventry 0-0, by far and away the most disastrous result and performance in recent memory Its the kind of result which defines the next 5-10 years of a club. We'll be looking back and talking about tonight in 4 or 5 years when we're losing midweek games in league 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scram Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 TBF Dean Smith is at least giving them a fighting chance - which is a first for them after recent seasons Watford do seem to have some of the dark arts which they call on When they get their players back from the African Nations and if they can get some of their injureds back then they do have a reasonable squad - but rely on players who have potential like Joao Pedro and Ken Sema but aren't reliable week in week out in a relegation scrap Not sure if they could cope with another relegation tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
