Good on Markinakis for telling them to bugger off. We're a grown up club now and nobody's plaything.

It's one of those that seems to be a bid that's gone in to say "look, we tried". A lot of Geordies unhappy that they haven't brought anyone in to strengthen their XI

This one isn't closed until 23:01. They've wanted Elanga for months, they won't just accept one no.

My real thoughts:
1) I like Elanga as a player and if he can improve in all technical areas even just a little bit then he’s a massively handful.
2) He might be slightly one dimensional.
3) Jota Silva could well push him for first choice right wing.
So overall there it’s a no brainer to keep him and reassess next summer.
BUT,
The main reason he’s going nowhere is the message it sends out. We’ve not sold a blatant first teamer without strengthening since Samba and whilst Elanga may well not end up being number one right winger, he’s a key player for the squad.
So he doesn’t leave because that would show others that they can also leave for something better. We are improving as a team/squad/club so any net loss of quality is detrimental to the overall aim.
Elanga stays, and that goes for all first team players unless they are expendable… e.g. Johnson.

You know shits gone well when Dan Taylor is praising EM.
It's almost like he's actually quite balanced but isn't afraid to call things out when required

Nottingham Forest: £50m Anthony Elanga offer from Newcastle rejected on Deadline Day
Sky Sports reveals why Newcastles dramatic Deadline Day offer for Anthony Elanga was rejected by Nottingham Forest, plus why they backed away from a late move for forward Omar Marmoush; Rob Dorsett also looks at why Forest signed James Ward-Prowse and Morato...

I think Elanga is a great talent, but I do wonder why he keeps drifting into the middle. Several times this afternoon we had nobody out on the right wing.

Wonder if his shit performance was linked to the club turning down Newcastle's bid?

It’s not all about the money is it but I have a feeling we won’t be offered that kind of sum again for Elanga. I totally get the statement of intent / Marinakis flex point. And I also get that he’s a good lad and a fabulous influence in the dressing room on the group. But a lot of the time remains frustrating to watch.

Yep that’s a fair observation too. Might have been different if they offered 50m a month ago, giving us time to reinvest etc.
What’s good is that we didn’t allow ourselves to be shafted at the death of the window.

Personally I don't think it was anything to do with how good Elanga might be. Although I'm sure the timing might have been an irritant.
Turning down Newcastle was a statement of intent by the club. We're serious about this.

Regardless of fee, we'd have been mad to accept losing who is probably our third choice striker option given we hadn't bought in another one.
Good on the club, and Elanga is the kind of sort that while he may well have entertained it certainly won't be sulking.
