👋 So, Anthony Gordon has left Newcastle United for Barcelona in a massive £70M+ deal. Ian is in the hot seat today, in a toonTALK special bonus episode, to break down the biggest transfer news of the summer, and let’s be honest—we all saw the writing on the wall, didn't we?

While losing a player of Gordon's quality hurts, cashing in for a massive fee gives Eddie Howe and the recruitment team a serious war chest to begin the Newcastle rebuild. Today, we look at the reality of life after Gordon, whether this deal is secretly a blessing in disguise for our PSR/SCR headroom, and the realistic targets Newcastle are already tracking to replace him on the wing.

Did we get good value for Gordon, and who is your absolute number one choice to replace him? Let us know!

Did we nail it? Were we spot on about our breakout star, or did we completely lose the plot on where we'd finish in the Premier League table? From the absolute masterclasses in foresight to the hilariously terrible takes, we are reacting to them all—completely unfiltered.

What did we get right? What did we get horribly wrong? There is only one way to find out... 👀

What was your wildest pre-season prediction that actually came true? Which of our takes do you think aged the absolute worst?

🇪🇸👋 It’s official. The paperwork took eight hours to sort out in Catalonia, but Anthony Gordon is a Barcelona player. On one hand, £69.3 million is a massive profit and we desperately need to rebuild after a tough season, but on the other hand we now have to spend it wisely!!!

​Here's my take on it all! 👀🤔

⛔ EUROPE? We’re Lucky We’re Going to Brentford Next Season! | toonTALK Episode 38

It is over. The curtain has finally come down on the season, and it ended in the most predictably pathetic way possible. A disgraceful, unacceptable nil-performance away to Fulham sums up what has been an utterly miserable conclusion to the campaign.

In Episode 38 of toonTALK, we are holding absolutely nothing back. We dissect the horror show at Craven Cottage, look at the brutal reality of a 12th-place finish, and try to process how a team with European ambitions managed to rack up 17 defeats—the most of any team outside the relegation zone.

No Europe. No goals. No fight. Are we lucky we aren't playing Championship football next year?

Have your say in the comments below. Is this the most frustrating season in recent memory? What needs to change in the summer?

🥱 Old Habits Die Hard: The Anatomy of Another Thrown Lead! Forest 1 Newcastle 1 toonTALK Episode 36

In this week’s episode of toonTALK, I'm off the bench breaking down a deeply frustrating afternoon in Nottingham. It was a game where we dominated large spells of the first half, but the lack of a clinical edge and some questionable game management meant we left the door wide open for Forest to snatch a point!

Stop me iif you’ve heard this one before I guess! Still, definitely a few positives though in the performance and I go through a bit of a squad audit too!

Grab a drink, settle in, and let’s vent together! 🏁

🎯 Realistic Targets vs. The Rumours | Newcastle United Transfer Talk 🗣️

Join your host Ian as we navigate through one of the most chaotic transfer periods in recent Newcastle United history.

With the 2025/26 season winding down and a European spot hanging in the balance, the rumour mill is in overdrive. From South American wonderkids to Premier League mainstays, Ian breaks down who is actually on the plane to Tyneside and which stories are nothing more than 'agent or paper talk.'

Folks, the names are flying around, but who is the one player you think actually improves our starting XI on day one? Are we looking for more 'diamonds in the rough' like Evertton Araujo, or do we need a marquee signing to steady the ship?"

🔮 Fabrizio Romano on Anthony Gordon and Newcastle United:

“According to my info, there is a possibility Newcastle sell one or two top players in the summer transfer window. It’s about FFP, it’s about the cost of the squad, so they have to consider exits; it could be one, could be two, based on opportunities, proposals, and what players want to do."

"Anthony Gordon has chances to leave Newcastle in the summer transfer window. There is a lot of interest also in Sandro Tonali, and let’s see what happens with Bruno Guimaraes."

“I’m not saying that Newcastle are going to sell all these players, that’s not the case. Newcastle will try to keep as many as possible. But, at the moment, there is a possibility Anthony Gordon could be on his way out of Newcastle in case of a big proposal.”

Well no 💩 Sherlock! If Newcastle get a big bid, everybody has a price! That's the way of the world in modern football! It's the old adage of throw enough 💩 and see what sticks huh I think with this statement from Mystic Meg!

Former Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew:

"One of the things about being a manager at Newcastle is the result will be scrutinised for the finest detail. The local radio, the press up there.. there will be nowhere for Eddie to go. There are some real problems at Newcastle. They've got themselves in a tornado of problems and it's all spiralling downwards.A lot of Newcastle fans will be looking for change and it's difficult to pin that on Eddie. Ultimately, you're the manager, you have to take it."

Poor Mike's mate Pardew. Awwww, did you get scrutinised!? Bless. How many millions did you get paid? Look ultimately this happens at EVERY club! It's a results and entertainment business. Can't stand the smoke then get out of the kitchen - wait a minute you have you're on talkSHITE and I see why now!!! 😆

✍️ We have completed a deal to sign highly-rated Ecuadorian winger Johan Martinez from Independiente del Valle.

He will officially join the club after his 18th birthday in the summer of 2027.

Ross Wilson, Newcastle United Sporting Director, said:

“We’re delighted to beat off serious competition from leading clubs across Europe to bring Johan to Newcastle United.

“Identifying and recruiting promising young players is a key part of how we build for the future, and our scouting and recruitment teams have worked diligently to secure Johan’s signature.

“Independiente del Valle have a strong reputation for developing young players and Johan has undoubtedly benefited from that environment. He will continue his progress there while we maintain a close connection with his development, and we look forward to welcoming him to Newcastle next year.”

Welcome to Newcastle United, Johan! 🇪🇨

🏁 Newcastle United youngster Anthony Munda has declared he wishes to explore a potential loan move this summer.

“I feel like, for me, that's the next step (a loan move) that I need to take. Obviously, I’ve played quite a lot of under-21s football, so the step from the under-21s to first-team football is quite a big jump.

“But I feel like now I'm in a place where I'm ready to do so and, hopefully, next season we'll see what comes. I feel like I'm in a good place right now, just trying to take it game by game, but obviously my aim is to play first-team football. I feel like now I'm ready to take that push but I can only control what I control right now - and that's by playing games as best as I can.

“I grew up playing and training with Lewis Miley, so seeing him make that jump to the first team, it's good to see.

“It shows that there can be a pathway and there's a way up there. Obviously, it's not easy, he's done really well in the situation that he was in, took his chance really well, so it's good to see.”

Go and grab an opportunity! 🖤🤍

🧤 Newcastle is facing up to a massive shakeup in goal this summer as the club confronts a harsh reality between the posts. With Nick Pope’s form wavering and Aaron Ramsdale’s loan spell nearing its end, we are effectively out of first team options. Reports indicate that Eddie Howe is targeting a total overhaul that includes signing both a proven new Number 1 and a high-potential youngster for the future.

​While Manchester City’s James Trafford remains the long-term scouting favourite, his massive wage demands have turned the deal into a complicated saga that may never materialise. Consequently, the board has expanded its search across the Premier League, Championship, and Ligue 1 to find more cost-effective solutions.

It is a high-stakes gamble for Newcastle and one they have to get right, as it's cost us so many points this season!
