I’m just stunned we agreed to a 25% sell on fee. We overpaid by a good £20m, and yet still got taken for a ride with not just a sell on, but a BIG one as well.
The summer was a car crash.

I don’t think we can expect to get anywhere close to what we paid, probs best putting him out on loan with the option to buy if possible.

Our best hope is a stellar World Cup performance for DR Congo

This transfer will be a pub quiz question in 20 years time

How would you rank the Wissa, Owen, Kluivert transfers from worst to even worse?

Some cracking bit of business by the lads on Strawberry Place.

He’s obviously been shite but cutting our losses this early, especially when his lack of pre-season and a bad injury could easily explain why he hasn’t settled in well, makes me feel like there’s something going on behind the scenes we don’t know about

Makes sense tbh. Wish we knew more about what’s really been going on but we never will. Just have to trust at this point. If we sell id support it. If he stays I hope he comes good.

Just need Howe to give him the Big Joe treatment and reinvent him as a fullback 👌

*”The striker, who is on a long-term contract, wants to stay at St James’ Park.”*
Of course he fucking does, he’s allegedly on £140k/week.
NOBODY is going to match those wages, so we’ll be stuck with this clown til his contract expires. One of the all time worst buys we’ve ever made.

Worse signing in PL history based on the fee, age and sell on clause? Surely.
Cant believe we got a record fee for Isak then spunked half of it up the wall on Wissa and the other half on a striker Howe doesn’t know how to use.

As bad as it gets. Utter shambles
