If we sign Sean Longstaff we deserve everything we are getting. Did Ole not watch him the other day?Tweet

We'll have to quick or City will be sniffing round.Corr, let’s not take all the world class options
Prefer his brother who plays with abit more energy.Can would be a decent option to be fair. Not keen on Longstaff though.
NahTweet

This is surely bollocks, Ole must be over the idea of signing Longstaff now considering he’s been garbage all season. His brother seems the better player and he isn’t up to much either.Tweet

Seems to me that they're thinking more along the lines of getting someone in to replace the injured players rather than add genuine quality to the midfield.ESPN know nothing luckily but that would be a depressing level of target. Don't add the creativity we're clearly crying out for and neither of them are starters for their teams (one can't even start for Newcastle regularly). Would be cementing our position in the midtable.
I think Can could do a job and is more physically suited against powerful midfields than Fred is for one of the DM roles in the team. If we're going to have someone with physical attributes come in to replace Matic, he'd be a good choice without breaking the bank.Tweet

One player who was absolute dogshit against us and the suggestion is that he’s good enough.We're finished aren't we?
I’d agree with this. I was interested in the prospect in the summer but he hasn’t kicked on this season at all.I was open to the Longstaff signing in the summer, but having seen a bit more of him I’d rather we passed. As others have said he’s not as good as McTominay and I’d rather give Garner or Levitt some game time. Feck, I’d rather give Mejbri some game time.
Can, I’d take on a loan with and option to sign but wouldn’t want us to sign him without having a good look at him.
Much depends on who s available. Most players cited in press are not available - Maddison, Grealish and Phillips just ti name a few.I was open to the Longstaff signing in the summer, but having seen a bit more of him I’d rather we passed.

Yeah I think these would be pointless signings. Can always struck me as rounded but not great at anything, Longstaff doesn't look a special talent at all after some hype last year and is not even a constant at Newcastle. Was shit when we played them recently. With everyone fit they don't start and I don't see the value of bringing in players who dont improve our team.Tweet

For the time being, and not even counting this ridiculous tweet...yes we are. Short of relegation, we are currently experiencing the most depressing phase of United. Unimaginable in 2013.We're finished aren't we?
How well has Longstaff been playing this season please?Tweet

We desperately need bodies as far as I’m concerned, I just feel that blowing even £25m plus wages on a 4 year contract for somebody who’d be obsolete in 6 months is a bit of a waste of money.Much depends on who s available. Most players cited in press are not available - Maddison, Grealish and Phillips just ti name a few.
If the choice goes down to Longstaff vs Can, I prefer Longstaff.
Watched a bit if Can in a Juventus game and wasn't impressed. He looked like someone who already peaked.
Longstaff despite his drawback looks like someone who s yet to reach his full potential
Can't even get in the Newcastle side, gifted us a goal on Boxing Day, dropped again by Bruce for next game.How well has Longtaff been playing this season please?
What?? The guys garbage and can’t even nail down a spot consistently in a Newcastle team, hope we steer well clear or I’ll really start to worry where Oles trying to take this club.Longstaff doesn't seem realistic in that he's playing for the team he loves, doing well in the league and Newcastle would really not want to sell.
Loaning players with experience seems the most likely.
Yuck!!Tweet

I'm sure. That would go without saying and goes for many players out there, put in a silly bid and you can get the player.Mike Ashley would sell his mum if the price is right.
I m not an expert on Newcastle but MAYBE he and his brother are not getting selected more often due to contractual issues pending with the club.What??

He’s not first choice and hasn’t got anywhere near his form prior to his injury last season.How well has Longstaff been playing this season please?
Sean hasn't looked great when he does play, so maybe he just isn't good enough for Brucie.I m not an expert on Newcastle but MAYBE he and his brother are not getting selected more often due to contractual issues pending with the club.
Absolutely, and it's also definitely not the ones whinging about others moaning who are taking the thread off topic either.You're all absolutely right - It's @Fridge chutney who ruins the thread with his tweets.... It's absolutely not the whingers who constantly moan about his tweet page after page after page.
Just ignore them for god sake. I have an interest in lower league football, so I would be very much opposed to him being banned. I'm not alone in this, which I suspect is the reason that the mods allow the tweets. You know.. Because he's actually following the rules of the thread?!
Thanks letting me know Doesn't sound much to get excited about sadly. Was hoping he'd been playing well if we are really interested in signing himCan't even get in the Newcastle side, gifted us a goal on Boxing Day, dropped again by Bruce for next game.
