    Bruno

    Looks like he’ll be starting for Brazil for the first time in the upcoming friendly with South Korea.
    Just seen him interviewed and he said that the move to Newcastle was the biggest decision of his life and he didn’t sleep for 4 nights thinking about it - basically if we would avoid the drop or not.
    The report said that Tite’s been very impressed with his performances with us and that, unusually, half of the current squad play in the Premier League.

    Can't belive Ashley signed Nacho Gonzalez on loan, As a favour for South American scouts. We were also supposed to get first dibs on good South American players.

    100% there was a kickback for Fatso

    I was in St James for Mirandinha’s debut - first Brazilian to play professionally in England, I think?
    Class player but ball greedy (perhaps not surprising due to the quality of his team mates, mind).

    I think we can safely say that Bruno is the best £ for £ player bought by the club since Alan Shearer was purchased by K.K.

    £ for £? I would think the likes of Cabaye and Tiote would be better shouts for that category tbh despite Bruno's obvious quality
