    I'm not though.

    Yes I said no-one else was interested. At the time there wasn't - that conversation was in reference to you saying Dortmund were after him.

    Yes he is now at PSG - on loan.

    No I never said he wouldn't get off the bench - I said he wouldn't get ahead of Messi/M'bappe/Neymar - if you accuse me otherwise then prove it.

    No he hasn't played 90 mins. He made his first start on Saturday and was subbed off after 59 mins. No other starts, just odd minutes here and there and his season total is 125 minutes.

    Thats the facts.

    I'll rephrase it... Yes or no... Stop tap dancing

    1. Did you say nobody else was interested in Ekitike?
    2. Is Ekitike at PSG?
    3. Did you say he wouldn't start for PSG?
    4. Had Ekitike started a full match for PSG?

    I'll add this to the list come February... He's signing there permanently in the summer.

    It's all rolys fault that we're revisiting this anyway. I'd forgotten about it.. We made a deal to move on because he was crying about me being right and using screenshots.

    It ends here or I revisit when he scores.....

    Let's focus on nufc players and signings. Ekitike is over unless others want more

    I have no issue with being wrong over stuff, I laugh when you produce screenshots. I'll be wrong on many many more occasions as will you.

    I don't get what you see in this kid. I genuinely don't. As I've said, I also said similar about Nunez and Isak. Now I get you say "Be a scout blah blah blah" I watch a players basic skill set, It's what I do as a coach, albeit at grassroots level. I watch how a kid controls a ball, runs with the ball, how they pass a ball, what their technique is like, what their movement is like, how often they lift their head to see who's around them, how they strike a ball, how they drop a shoulder, what moves they do repeatedly, how they tackle, how they press.....and yeah im guilty of doing that exact same thing watching players weather its live or on telly and im not impressed and wasn't impressed with this kid. There was just far far too much luck involved.

    Having skimmed through the last couple of pages, I'd be very glad to move from Ekitike and focus on potential NUFC signings please. <laugh>

    But, but, he managed to kick the ball against 10 man Fulham.
    I mean, it didn't go in, but he did kick it.

    Unfortunately a deal was made and I kept my end of it, but now I'm not going to be everyone's cup of tea.

    We're doing things my way now.

    It's never been about what I see in him it's what the big clubs scouts see in him

    So Trippier is about to sign an extension. That’s good news.

    January hopefully we revisit Maddison. But his stock is rising. Who knows.

    With us potentially being much higher in the table than we have ever been we will be more attractive.

    Diaby may be an option again.

    But personally I don’t see us spending a lot this January.
