Jose posted:shelvey owns actually and i'm sure i've never said he's poo poo itf Even when he's interested he can't defend, run, or take less than 4 touches before picking a pass. Might do alright if you've got players who can run in behind defences, and midfielders willing to do all his work for him. Monk changed the whole Swansea system to suit him and it sort of worked for 6 months. Lot of Newcastle fans seem to like him based on the game at the start of the season, but Jonjo was practically anonymous until Janmaat got sent off.

jonjo is decent and that is a good bit of business for newcastle imho, at least they have someone who will take wild shots any time all the time now

12m is about 4m too much (but Liverpool are getting 30% ftw) but he's a good signing for Newcastle for sure. Also Caulker is a weird signing at first glance but sort of makes sense who knows

EvilHawk posted:Do you know what was going on with him off the field? I heard he was getting into fights but no idea who with (or if that's true) He headbutted Gylfi before a game when he found out he was on the bench (Leicester, I think, same game Ash wanted to fight Mahrez and the bus). Then went home crying and Gylfi played 90 minutes like a pro. Doesn't get on with Cork either, but I don't think that came to blows (Jack's too nice for that). He's never been the most professional and mostly just does what his dad/agent tells him. When the England callups came old man Shelvey's head got turned, and they've been pushing for a move for months. His missus is also mad and has had a go at everyone at the club at some point on twitter. ![]()

Apparently, a Chinese club are looking to offer Jelavic stupid money after just 4 months at West Ham. Would be nice to free up some wages so we can buy an actual right-back or a not-completely-poo poo backup striker

Norwegian midfielder Markus Henriksen is on his way to Napoli from AZ Alkmaar. One of the best midfielders from Norway (which doesn't say that much really).

Norway has produced a surprising amount of decent midfielders over the last couple of years. Martin Odegaard goes without saying even if he isn't quite the Double-Messi everyone hyped him up as and Martin Samuelsen looks real, real good even if he is out on loan at Peterborough.

Steven Caulker is awful and I'm glad we're not paying him to sit on our bench anymore.

Fan favorite who won everything there's to win in his first spell with the club and fits the manager's philosophy perfectly? Come home to Man Utd Nemanja.

I'm all for having a squad with good depth, but I think we have enough midfielders now, Mike/Lee/Steve/Graham or whoever actually makes these deals

Toure and Sakho should start against Arsenal and I'm happy enough with that. I don't think Lovren is too far away either. Shelvey is a weird looking man and a weird player. He's clearly talented and is one of those players that will impact a game hugely- the problem is that can be for the wrong reasons as much as the right ones. Given he's never had any pace you might see him peak a bit later in life when he matures. Regardless he's a fun player to watch provided he's not in your team.

Shelvey owns. He scores goals, does Hollywood passes, causes drama, taunts fans, and sucks at mostly everything else. A++ player that I would not want on my team.
