ASM carried Newcastle for like 2 seasons, madness his stock has fallen so much.
Tbf, itās not that surprising heās fallen out of favour there.
For all the flashiness and havoc he causes, donāt think the end product is there with him.
Eddie Howe has been getting more and more pragmatic with his approach at Newcastle. Itās clash of styles really.
Thatās why heās been a glorified sub option for months now.
Bit weird to see him go regardless as their attacking options arenāt great. Thereās Gordon of course who will soon be joining them but I wonder if thatās really enough.

Heās flashy but not that effective. Even when he supposedly ācarriedā Newcastle (sorry cristo) he was netting 5 in 35 and 3 in 25.
Highlight reel player who can be a danger for any full back in the world on any given day but not regularly enough.
Someone like Everton should maybe take the gamble since heās only 25 but itād probably end up like Bolasie.

Yeah those stats donāt lie, I think I got caught up in the highlight reels on MOTD where he always looked like the only Newcastle player that was even slightly dangerous. Although youāre also forgetting his assists albeit they are still only in the single digits.

Good lord, what a fall from grace. Bournemouth? 
Thing is stats can be manipulated to show whatever you want them to show
I would suggest a player who can pick up the ball in his own half, and take it at speed close to the opposition box is a very valuable player.
He moves his team forward whenever he gets the ball, thats a good quality to have.
Club agreement. Wow. Surely he rejects them?
Will look like a fucking idiot if he backs out of a move now though.

How did Bayern end up paying only 8m for Sommer when he was being floated as a De Gea replacement for 30m just six month ago? Itās not like heās playing poorly.
PL tax, mate. That and Bayern always gets their player cheaply.
His contract was ending this summer. Bayern fucked around a lot with the transfer trying not to pay for him since he would be a free agent soon but they ended having to give up to their demands.

Aulas going on Twitter to say Gusto is staying till the summer.
Thatās true. They somehow manage to undercut PL buyers and still walk away with the player.
Investigate Spurs.
Danjuna, Porro and Gordon? The flying fuck? I thought they had no money.
Gordon is shite.
Canāt believe he has clubs wanting him

Heās young, looks busy and is English. I think thereās always a market for a guy like that.

Hardly a queue forming here though.
Well only Everton could parlay a guy like that into a midlevel sale. Total incompetence. IIRC Chelsea offered them 60m this summer.
