How much of the "Sissoko was demotivated at newcastle and didnt try hard enough" is based on the fact that they were relegated rather than watching him play more than the 2 games against us? Apparently Benitez named him captain for the last 6 games of the season in which they were unbeaten. Maybe not all his fault then.
Mate of mine is a Newcastle fan. He very much says it as he sees it and wasn't singing Sissoko's praises much last season.

I find the transfer window like a prostate exam. I know what to expect but no amount of mental preparation can make the end result any more enjoyable.

I agree, prostate exams literally can't get any better.

We drew 13 games last year, the most of the top 6. This year we have had 31 shots on goal over 3 games. We can wait for Dele, Kane and Erikssen to find form, or we could drop them to the bench if we had viable alternatives, but we don't have depth at the moment. You can see with Dembele missing how weak our overall team play is.

Not the place for the discussion, but you were claiming we just needed one 'game changer'. This is another argument entirely. Anyway, moving on...

Will be so awkward tomorrow when the only deal we announce is that we have signed Cisco to provide video conferencing equipment...

We'll get official confirmation about the ISCO deal breaking down tomorrow lunchtime.

It's the same old story with Levy, he did the same with Aguero, Rossi, Berahino, Forlan and Fabiano.

Isco isn't a goalscorer, he's more of a creative spark in the mould of Modric but he plays behind the striker.

I would say that it was essential to buy a goal scoring creative midfielder. VDV scored 24 in 63. The successful teams always have a Scholes/Lampard figure.
