Hamburg was a perfect place to develop and get game time.

From the little I've read, he wasn't getting the game time? Perhaps he will go out again to the championship as he is talented. We need to be looking at cover for Rodders but I don't see Tommy in that role and now he has Palmer and Mcatee ahead of him for attacking midfield options

Think he will do ok there. He isn't a mug. Hes scored something like the 13th most PL goals over the last four or five years and this was playing for Burnley who aren't renowned for their attacking tactics.
He will slot right in as he knows the PL and the physicality of it. For comparison a young lad at a French club who is 19 and has scored 8 goals in a far inferior league is being touted at £30m. How many of these types of players have sunk without a trace over the years? Loads I reckon

I still think it’s mental money on someone that will be 31 this year and that is very one dimensional. They’ll literally need to just throw balls into the box and not go through ASM. Seems weird to change your style of play for one player that isn’t very good.

It is a risk, no doubt about it. But they have their two forwards sidelined for a while and their next three games are Watford, Leeds and Everton. Three teams who are in their immediate vicinity and if they lose those three it would be incredibly difficult to avoid relegation which financially would be catastrophic.
It is most probably a very short term signing with the hope he scores goals to keep them up. After that he will either be a squad player or be moved on as Newcastle splash the cash again. I totally get why they have done it

What I find odd is that Newcastle looked like they are linked with only unknown players. Football players, in their definition, are money-grabbing mercenaries, can't understand why. Either they keep it super-secret, or they have a real problem on their hands.
I wonder if they have problems with clubs close to the cartels that refuse to talk with them, or even players.
We really got one of the most exciting players of that year, to be fair, in Robinho.
Odd.

Woods is a good fit for where Newcastle are this season - avoid relegation.. Honest, grafter, focal point, good header, physicality, Trip to supply him, etc...
He will be marginalized next season when better players are brought in. He will not care as he will have filled his pockets at 31.
Good luck to him.

His agent has already said he’s not going to United because they’re crapDaily Mail desperate to keep them relevant.

I am a bit tired of this saga, to be honest, and it did not really start properly.
