Whilst we're at it, let's bring back Santon, as he was sick back on FM09, and Kyriakos Papadopoulos always ended up my captain in every save since he entered the game until he became to expensive for my low league starts. What's Freddy Adu up to these days?

I'll be really disappointed if they don't shore up the CDM position before the season. So yes, I'm bound for disappointment.
Got a feeling we might, think we will play 3-5-2/5-3-2 so would expect Longstaff, Shelvey, New CM, unless Hayden stays.

Also speaking of Hayden does anyone else find it suspiciously quiet on him ATM, he couldn't shut up about leaving before, but now Rafa has gone all that talk seems to have died down. <scratch>
I wonder if there isn't the PL interest he would have hoped for? Or if maybe something has changed in his family situation to make him more comfortable? Or if he's just more content about the role he sees himself in with the team.

Still time yet might be waiting for us to sign a replacement. If anything that's changed to make him stay it'll be the reason he wanted to leave his family situation.

Late to the party <awe> Could be a good signing anyway. Hopefully we continue to strengthen.

As sarcastic as this post was, it made me wonder what Adu was doing now. He's now 30, clubless since last year(when released by Las Vegas Lights) and coaching kids.

We have been linked with a lot of pacey attack minded players who like to dribble, for all the doubts you could throw at Bruce, has he ever really had the quality he could potentially have with us, Almiron and Joelinton, with talk of Saint-Maximin or Bowen, Sidibe etc, will be interesting to see how he gets on with this type of squad if we were to get the players we are heavily linked with.

I've seen James Tavernier mentioned as well. 17 goals and 20 assists in all competitions last season

From rightback? <laugh> I know the spl is considered a fairly weak league, bit those numbers can't be right, surely?

Apparently we're after another Brazilian (striker) called Marrony from Vasco De Gama, he has a £30mil release clause according to SSN

It'd appear somebody on the club staff left a business card with Brazilian agents.

Yep.

But 14 goals from penalty spot. (14 successful, 2 missed, not bad)

Don't have Instagram so can't verify it but apparently Saint-Maximin is liking all the Joelinton posts on our Instagram page. Signing #2 soon? <scratch>

I genuinely forgot penalties were a thing you could have.

Yeah so that means Rangers had 16 or more penalties last season. How far back do we have to go back to count that many nufc penalties? Must be a fair few seasons.

Yeah he takes a decent set piece. Would quite happily have him back (I know the SPL is weak but he does look a tidy player).

Mbabu too <roll>
I'm the scumbag outlaw. You're the pillar of justice. Neither of us like looking at ourselves in the mirror. Do we have a deal?

It's been pretty baffling to me how many semi-promising fullbacks were released without ever having the position shored up.

Mbabu should never have been sold imo.
Supporting the Toon since 1972.
