I don’t see him as being a definite starter over any off those attacking players in a Newcastle team. Heading to Newcastle still puts him on the bench, albeit with a better chance of making it to the starting team. He had 6 starts and 22 Subs for us last season, that might switch around for him at Newcastle but he’s gonna have to improve for that to happen.
Newcastle got 80 appearances out of Joe Willock and Jacob Murphy combined last season.
If Harvey were to go to Newcastle he’d likely be competing with both for those appearances. Even if he bettered both of them I would think he’d still only be looking at maybe 40 as opposed to 28 with us. Someone would have to leave for him to get more opportunities there.
Changed his tune in 24 hours
God the guys full of shit.
Full of Shit. Full of Hope.
“Cope”
‘Full of cope’ is a great new expression 
Looks like Hughes found some bottle over night.
It’s worth questioning a guy who’s name is C Hope.
Klopp might be playing a part here and telling Sesko to join Newcastle which would help us landing Isak.
His full name is Craig Hopeless Journalist.
Sounds like Red Bull are trying to keep Man U in the game so that they can keep the bidding going.
Sesko would have to be a fucking moron to go to Manchester, big club or no big club.
The demonstrable and irrefutable evidence is that it is highly likely he will not develop there.
If he believes he’s a top player destined for a top club he should sign a 3 year contract at NUFC, do the business there and move to bigger club in his mid-20s.
I dont see any European club dropping a massive transfer fee for a player and be happy for said player to sign a 3 year deal. It makes no financial sense for the buying club.
I do agree that it’ll need to be a career stepping stone, assuming neither Newcastle or United get their acts together and start actually competing. Long may that continue.
Fair point.
4/5 then.
Either way, back yourself in to be good enough to get a move in a few years. As things stand today, much better chance of that happening in Newcastle than Manchester.
To be frank I think it’s for Newcastle to adjust their thinking more than anything.
They’re pretending like they’re this massive club only a fool would be interested in leaving. Reality is that’s what they should be aspiring to now as they go through that process of building, developing and then occasionally selling players on for huge profits to help them with the next step in building.
It’s what we had to do but their ego is getting in the way. They still think “we’re the richest club in the world” when that’s just not true. They have a rich owner but the club is miles off where they think they are. They’re trying to bypass the 10-15 years it took FSG to build us up to where we are now despite the rules that are now in place.
They’ve played this so badly and now other clubs are thinking “if you value Isak at that and you’ve offered that for Ekitike then we know you’ve got a pile of cash to spend so we’ll add another 20% onto the lad you want from us.”
Feel a bit sorry for Eddie, he’s clearly been hung out to dry on this and even if they bank a big fee for Isak the rest of the window then becomes a scramble.
All the rumours, thoughts, desires are irrelevant, if they want 150 then we need to stump up the cash. Stop dicking around. We wouldn’t sell Nunez to Napoli for the exact same reason.

As it stands the situation appears as we are denting our own reputation. We are a club run at the highest standards and should always act that way. We pride ourselves on being an honest and champion club. We should not be treating other clubs as feeder clubs because we consider them smaller clubs.
.
That’s what a United does to teams like Everton.
