Who gives a fuck. We got a great player.

Potentially. Could end up being a massive waste of space if he does here what he did for them. We need to hope we've signed the France Sissoko and not the Newcastle Sissoko. Poch best bring this boy up to speed.

I have seen some classic knee jerk in this last few hours. Seriously? Just read in the Negativity thread that Maske2g is giving up his season ticket....and his mates too!!!!

Brilliant stuff.

Has the knee jerk thread become the reality thread yet? May as well rename it.

I cannot believe for a second, we allowed all of these players to leave without any concrete targets or offers.

I can honestly see Poch leaving after this season in all honesty. I wouldn't blame him.

He is expected to compete in the league, CL and he done a great job of getting us there..... then baldy goes and derails the show. I can see why Mitchell fell out with the twat.

just asking but who should we of gone and targeted, and been able to get

answers on a postcard

the trouble is the Newcastle team only showed up on a couple of occasions last season, that's enough to effect anyones game. playing for France he looked so much better, because he was playing with a team that all pulled in the same direction, he has just joined a team that pulls in the same direction.

I still hate him for that dive on the last day

A deadline day signing and some good solid net spend and they still complain.

There are literally threads saying 'i want some net spend'. No pleasing some people.
We havent thats the problem. Playing great in one international tournament doesnt make you great otherwise that liverpool team in 2003 would have been awesome with the amount of senegal players they had.

Yedlin and Origi had great tournaments but havent translated that in to club form. International football is a different ball game to the PL.
Exactly mate lol can't win can we.

So happy we got him. Yes a little overpriced but just what we need and so are all the players at the moment. I'd be laughing more at Newcastle losing their best player and being in the championship!!

Let the haters hate.
This is the point he wasnt their best player and we just brought a player who was getting outperformed by andros Townsend week in week out

I can want us to spend some money and also be annoyed that we apparently only had £30m available for Moussa Sissoko. Refuse to believe he's the best we could have got for that, and if we truly think he was, then why didn't we do this a few weeks ago? We didn't exactly get a cutprice deal, this man is now our record signing.

It's a panic buy. You can't seriously tell me you would have been enthused three months ago that our big summer signing was going to be a relegated player famed for his inconsistency and lethargy.

Fuck, I hope he proves me wrong. Just don't see how this is anything other than the most panicky of panic buys.

I'm going to take a guess and suggest the ones that don't perform to the expected level required.
