BN hasn't been around much, so I hope he won't mind me starting the thread for the new season

Newcastle follow up the signings Dubravka and Ki Sung-Yeung by completing the signing of Kenedy from Chelsea on a season long loan

I guess that means they won't be going after Townsend, which I also hope means they won't now have to sell Ritchie to help pay for him

seemingly the Fat lad is dangling £100M in front of Rafa.... but only if he signs a new 3 year contract

I wouldn't believe anything that fat *modded* says

but I would like Rafa to sign a new 3 year deal

everyone spends more than Newcastle

'cept perhaps Sunderland

If Aldi had bigger dump bins in their middle aisle, then the fat *modded* would probably have his minions rooting around the bottom.... just in case there was a footballer there

If this does happen then one has to think that Roman is pretty annoyed at not getting his visa.

Chelsea could be loosing Hazard, Courtois and Willian. Very different team this season.

and clearly Rafa doesn't either, because he says he won't start contract negotiations until after the transfer window has closed

and who can blame him

money first, fat boy..... talks later

Still hard to get ones head around the fact that Rafa went to Newcastle. And that he is still there after all this is an even bigger mystery.

transfer window shuts next week and not at the end of the month. When did that happen?

not long for Rafa to spend the £22M he got for Mitrovic before the fat lad picks his pocket

PL teams voted to end the window before the first game last year. Which is strange, ebcause any European teams can still buy up till 1st September. If Real Madrid decide they want to smash a few huge bids in for a star player as they get desperate, it could leave teams without a replacement.
