Ross Barkley joins Chelsea, er, Villa on loan

Huyton Layne · May 24, 2020

Some Newcastle fans excited with their new found money and chances of Rafael but not so keen on Ross

Then there 's this person who should just support us instead as they think a 26 year old has potential, when he's gonna hold his current form/ability for the rest of his career

That's not how I remember it.
I think his agent and himself had us off for millions.

Those two were the only winners in the situation.

Imagine orchestrating a snide move to knock the price down that brazenly for a player of the calibre of Ross Barkley

Considering us and Chelsea agreed a £35m fee on transfer deadline day August 2017 only for it to fall through at the last minute, then we ended up getting just £15m when he eventually left the following January, I'd say it was us that got had off.

Newcastle want to go down the Sunderland route and buy up ex Everton players. :oops:

Sure these are better ones but still we had them, Jags, Deulofeu, Lukaku, Baines, Pienaar and Coleman and we still won nothing.

Funny thing is, IF this bs take over is true and they want stones and boss hardly, they'd be their best players since shearer....massive club

I thought the deal hadn’t gone through yet. I mean they are still owned by Ashley.
