        Like Wolt long term.
        I would save transfer and just bring in Anthony replacement

          I don't like him long term

          Newcastle are goal shy
          He gets subbed every game
          He's not on pens
          Doesn't have great expected goals or stats
          Wissa will see him rotated

          Better options on pens and better mins in teams with better expected goals

              I don't mind it but I don't like Welbeck as an asset long term I can promise you he does this every season has a great spell at the beginning of season then goes completely off the boil/ injuries etc every season

    didnt realise if things stay as they are, newcastle will only have scored 10 goals in 10 games. 8 in 3 in CL. they can get up for the big matches but no energy for the pl ones?

    Woltemade on Free Hit, what a dud. Will be avoiding him, Saka and Sarr going forward.

    Funnily enough I have Pedro and Paqueta in my regular squad but I would have benched both this week anyway.

        If a player doesn't score in the last game they're garbage, and if they've scored they're the second coming of Maradona.

        You know how this works 😆

            He didn’t say anything wrong. You sound like you chase points

            If a player doesn’t score for 2/3 weeks, that doesn’t mean they’re a bad pick
